QB LV
Week 3 · PPR
Start or sit Fernando Mendoza?
The verdict comes from our weekly projection model: last season's opportunity-based xFP/g shrunk toward the position mean, then adjusted for role, injury status, the opponent's fantasy points allowed and the Vegas game total vs the league average.
Borderline
#26 QB projection — on the borderline of the ~18 started in 12-team superflex.
Borderline call: Fernando Mendoza projects for 13.5 PPR points this week, ranked #26 among QBs by our projection model. @NO is a tough matchup for QBs — the model applies a -9% swing to his projection. Vegas posts the total at 42.5 — 93% of the 45.6 league average for week 3.
