Why this ranking
hand-set 2026-08-24
Re-priced 24 Aug to the CURRENT market, replacing the 6 Aug row lifted the same day. Same category as the Strange row written today: MARKET-MATCHING, no independent football argument, and it should not be read as the model having found something. 115.4 = 8.24/g x 14.0 games lands WR48, against ADP WR48, ECR WR49, Underdog WR47 and Yahoo WR55. THIS IS THE LARGEST OF THE THREE LIFTS AND THE REASON IT COULD NOT SIMPLY BE LEFT: native he is WR78 on 5.78/g, a THIRTY-RANK disagreement with all four markets that immediately tripped the audit's own review list. The old row said 'ADP 52' and ADP is now 48, so a row written to RAISE him toward the market had quietly become a ceiling holding him under it -- which is why it was lifted, not because the direction was wrong. WHAT WOULD SETTLE IT PROPERLY: a thirty-rank gap on a second-year receiver is either a real edge or a real miss, and nothing here distinguishes them. His own usage is the thing to look at, not his ADP.
This is a view, not a correction — the model said something different and was overruled. See how it works.
