How this score works

Impact blends how many teams are off, how many fantasy-relevant starters that likely removes, and how many top-50 ranked players are unavailable.

  • Team volume (45) — Share of teams on bye vs the busiest bye week this season (max 45 pts).
  • Starter scarcity (30) — Estimated fantasy starters affected (~2 QB, 4 RB, 5 WR, 1 TE per team), scaled to 72 (max 30 pts).
  • Top-50 pressure (25) — Share of top-50 ranked players on bye vs the worst week this season (max 25 pts).

Your roster impact is separate: it counts your starters on bye, bench coverage quality, and whether a waiver replacement is available.

Hardest bye weeks: Weeks 3, 4, 9, 5, 8
