Draft case studies

How FantasyHQ uses the board — expand a player card for percentages, data sources, and draft decisions.

01
Josh Allen BUF · QB · OVR 27 # vs OVR
Case study

Allen is QB1 on the board but only overall ~27. Positional dominance ≠ early ADP in 1QB leagues.

Proj vs QB #1100%

Season projection relative to the top QB on this board.

Trade value index64%

Value vs max on the full FantasyHQ board (~117).

Katz alignment78%

Katz 33 vs consensus 27 (−6 · slightly colder).

Soppe alignment96%

Soppe 28 vs consensus 27 — nearly locked.

Where the numbers come from

  • # — order among QBs on this board
  • OVR — FantasyHQ consensus across all positions
  • Proj / PPG — season projection model for PPR
  • Katz / Soppe — independent analyst boards
  • Value — trade chart (Trade Analyzer family)

How to use it next

  • Superflex / 2QB → draft off #
  • 1QB → wait for OVR timing after RB/WR studs
  • Confirm injury/depth on the player profile before you lock

02
Ja'Marr Chase CIN · WR · OVR 1 Redraft vs dynasty
Case study

Chase leads both boards. The lesson is the tier below — youth climbs on dynasty; aging win-now WRs drift.

Redraft WR proj share100%

Top projected WR on the redraft PPR board.

Dynasty board lock100%

Also WR1 on dynasty — format switch matters more in the next tier.

Where the numbers come from

  • Same consensus engine, different objective
  • Redraft = this season only
  • Dynasty weights age and multi-year upside

How to use it next

  • Rebuilding startups → draft from the dynasty WR board
  • Compare tiers 2–4 side by side before you reach

03
Bijan Robinson ATL · RB · OVR 2 RB scarcity & Value
Case study

Bijan, Gibbs, and McCaffrey cluster near the top of OVR and Trade Value — scarcity pricing for reliable volume.

Proj vs RB #1100%

Top projected RB on the redraft PPR board.

Trade value index98%

Value ~115 vs board max ~117 — early-pick trade equity.

Where the numbers come from

  • Value = FantasyHQ trade chart score
  • High Value + high OVR = midseason move equity

How to use it next

  • Two flex options close on Proj Pts → take higher Value if you might trade
  • Verify deals in the Trade Analyzer

04
Rhamondre Stevenson NE · RB · OVR 90 Katz sleeper (+20)
Case study

Katz ranks Stevenson ~20 spots ahead of consensus — a research flag, not an auto-draft.

Katz edge+20 spots

Consensus 90 · Katz 70 — analyst hotter / sleeper lean.

Katz alignment78%

Gap as a % of consensus rank depth.

Where the numbers come from

  • Sleeper score = consensus OVR − analyst rank
  • Positive = analyst hotter than the board
  • Sleepers tool filters outside top 70 with 12+ edge

How to use it next

  • Open the profile — check snaps and depth
  • Decide if the gap is injury noise or a real buy

05
DeVonta Smith PHI · WR · OVR 26 Soppe fade (−9)
Case study

Consensus loves the name; Soppe is colder — a fade checklist item, not a panic sell by itself.

Soppe vs consensus−9 spots

Consensus 26 · Soppe 35 — analyst colder / fade lean.

Soppe alignment65%

Use with Katz and injury context before you pass.

Where the numbers come from

  • Bust signal = analyst colder than consensus
  • Busts tool surfaces sticky-ADP names with that pattern

How to use it next

  • If Katz and Soppe both lean cold, passing in round 3 is easier
  • Confirm injury/depth on the profile first

06
Puka Nacua LAR · WR · OVR 4 PPG planning
Case study

Season Proj Pts can hide uneven games. When two WRs sit within ~15 projected points, sort by PPG for byes and injury risk.

Proj vs WR #189%

348.4 proj vs Chase 390.8 on redraft PPR.

PPG decision weightHigh

PPG = projected points ÷ expected games in the model.

Where the numbers come from

  • PPG from the FantasyHQ projection model for this scoring format
  • Better than season totals when games played differ

How to use it next

  • Once the season starts, pair the board with Start/Sit
  • Don’t stare at season totals alone for weekly calls
