Implied Point Total

Dead Cap


The amount of money a team is obligated to pay a player who is no longer on the roster. This occurs when a player is released or traded, and the team is still responsible for their remaining contract.

Q&A

  • What are some of the key factors to consider when choosing your "Start of the Week" players?

    When selecting your "Start of the Week" players, consider their recent performance, upcoming matchups, and injury status. Analyze the strength of their opponent's defense and look for players who are in favorable situations to excel.

  • How does the "Schedule Adjusted Points" metric help fantasy football managers?

    Schedule Adjusted Points provides a more accurate assessment of a player's performance by accounting for the strength of their opponent's defense. This helps managers make informed decisions about which players to start and avoid, even if a player has had a strong overall season.

  • What are some of the risks associated with starting a rookie quarterback in fantasy football?

    Rookie quarterbacks can be unpredictable and inconsistent. Their performance can fluctuate from week to week, making it difficult to rely on them for consistent fantasy production. However, they also have the potential for high upside, especially in favorable matchups.
