TE DET
Week 10 · PPR
Start or sit Sam LaPorta?
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
#19 TE projection — on the borderline of the ~13 started in 12-team leagues.
Borderline call: Sam LaPorta projects for 7.6 PPR points this week, ranked #19 among TEs by our projection model. vs NE is a soft matchup for TEs — the model applies a +3% swing to his projection. Vegas posts the total at 49.5 — 100% of the 49.5 league average for week 10.
