1 eligible D/ST player is not ranked · awaiting both estimates
Miami Dolphins. 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.
