Prediction for Rachaad White
Nobody knows which slot Rachaad White will land in this week, so pick the one you expect. The projection changes because each slot faces a different average from the Cowboys.
I predict about 9.3 points for Rachaad White if playing as a RB2. Rachaad White has averaged 4.7 over 1 game, and the Cowboys have given up 13.8 to RB2s (+165% vs the league average of 5.2).
How this projection is built
1. The player. Rachaad White scored: Wk 1 4.7. Average 4.7; weighted toward recent games it is 7.2.
2. The defense. Over 1 game, the Cowboys allowed 13.8 points to their opponent's RB2. The league average for that slot is 5.2, so that is +165%.
3. Trusting small samples less. With 1 defensive game, only 25% of the gap is applied, capped at +/-30%. That gives a +30% adjustment (x1.30).
4. Result. 7.2 x 1.30 = 9.3. Switching slots only changes step 2 and 3: the player's own numbers stay the same, but each slot faces a different defensive average.
It is a statistical model, not knowledge of injuries, game script or weather.
Chance to score
Type a point total to see how likely Rachaad White is to reach it as a RB2.
Why this percentage?
The projection (9.3) is the middle of the range. Fantasy scores swing a lot from game to game, so the model spreads possible scores around it by about 5.6 points, leaning on Rachaad White's own game-to-game swings once there are several games (and on typical RB swings before that).
Scores are modelled as right-skewed, since a big game is possible but a very negative one is not. The percentage is the share of that spread at or above 9.
With only 1 game of history, treat this as a rough gauge. It gets sharper as the season goes on. It is never lower than 1% or higher than 99%.
Insights
- all RBs have averaged 6.5 carries, 27.8 rushing yards and 1.0 receptions per player-game against the Cowboys across 1 game.
- The Cowboys allow 27.3 PPR points to the position per game, +18% versus the league average of 23.2 (ranked 9 of 32, where 1 is most generous). That is a favorable matchup.
- Outlier: Week 1, Cam Skattebo (14.1 pts, 18 car, 81 rush yds) sits far above the other games and pulls the averages up. Average with it vs without it: pts 6.8 vs 4.4; car 6.5 vs 2.7; rush yds 27.8 vs 10.0. The table above keeps the raw averages.
- Outlier: Week 1, Patrick Ricard (0.0 pts, 0 car, 0 rush yds) sits far below the other games and drags the averages down. Average with it vs without it: pts 6.8 vs 9.1; car 6.5 vs 8.7; rush yds 27.8 vs 37.0. The table above keeps the raw averages.
- 2 of 4 player-games reached 10+ PPR points. Scores range from -0.6 to 14.1 (median 6.9).
- all RBs scored a touchdown in 2 of 4 player-games (50%).
- Small sample: only 1 game so far. Treat these numbers as directional, not settled.

Rachaad White usually plays as the team's RB2, so the verdict uses the RB2 numbers, not the slot selected above.
- Rachaad White averages 9.5 PPR points over 2 games (recent-weighted 10.0) and has played as the team's RB2.
- The Cowboys have allowed 9.8 points to RB2s over 2 games (+106% vs league). The model applies 40% of that gap because the sample is small, giving a +30% adjustment.
- Last season's average (8.4) is blended in at 50% weight because this season's sample is small.
- Projection: 12.0 points.
- For reference, a typical weekly starter-level RB scores about 12.2 and a top-tier one about 20.0.

Rachaad White's stats vs the Cowboys
Season so far, compared with what the group you pick below has done against the Cowboys, plus a projection for this game.
What is this table?
Rows at the top are every game Rachaad White has played this season, using the same stat columns as the table above.
Compare against picks which group of Cowboys opponents to line them up with: the best RB they faced in each game (1), the second best (2), the third best (3), or all of the top three. Nobody knows which slot Rachaad White will land in this week, so this is your call, not a guess.
Cowboys avg is the average line of that group. Difference is that minus Rachaad White's own average: green means the defense gives that slot more than Rachaad White usually produces.
Projected is Rachaad White's recent-weighted average scaled by how generous the Cowboys were to the slot you picked. Change the slot and the projected points change, because each slot has a different matchup adjustment. Picking Top 3 uses the usual-role projection.
| Wk | Opp | Car | RuYd | RuTD | Tgt | Rec | ReYd | ReTD | FPts |

| Cowboys All avg | 6.5 | 27.8 | 0.3 | 1.3 | 1.0 | 5.5 | 0.3 | 6.8 | |
| Difference | -0.5 | -4.8 | +0.3 | -2.8 | -3.0 | -17.0 | +0.3 | -2.7 | |
| Projected | 9.1 | 42.3 | 0.0 | 5.2 | 5.2 | 29.3 | 0.0 | 12.0 | |
Difference is what the defense allows minus what White averages (green = defense gives up more). Projected stats scale the player's averages by the matchup adjustment, so they are a rough guide.
