25 eligible QB players are not ranked · awaiting both estimates

Cole Payton · Ty Simpson · Tommy DeVito · Gardner Minshew II · Drew Lock · Tyrod Taylor · Quinn Ewers · Sam Howell · Justin Fields · Stetson Bennett IV · Joshua Dobbs · Tua Tagovailoa · Anthony Richardson Sr. · Mason Rudolph · Kenny Pickett · Joe Milton III · Carson Wentz · Jarrett Stidham · Joe Flacco · Cade Klubnik · Mitchell Trubisky · DJ Uiagalelei · Shedeur Sanders · Kyle Allen · Kyle McCord. These players remain outside the midpoint rankings until both estimates are available.

How the window and ranking work

Ranking midpoint = (FF projection + saved Monte Carlo mean) ÷ 2. The window connects those two estimates, in either order. It is not a confidence interval, floor/ceiling range or probability of playing.

Every visible row uses the same scale, from the lowest endpoint in this list to the highest. The scale adjusts when you change how many players are shown. Players need a scheduled game and both estimates; confirmed unavailable players and byes are excluded. Conditional forecasts and started games are labeled.

Confirm your league’s slot rules. These experimental midpoint rankings are separate from the FF projection and the Start/Sit call.
