Prediction for CeeDee Lamb

Nobody knows which slot CeeDee Lamb will land in this week, so pick the one you expect. The projection changes because each slot faces a different average from the Jaguars.

If CeeDee Lamb plays as
21.4
projected PPR points

I predict about 21.4 points for CeeDee Lamb if playing as a WR1. CeeDee Lamb has averaged 25.3 over 2 games, and the Jaguars have given up 17.9 to WR1s (+5% vs the league average of 17.0).

How this projection is built

1. The player. CeeDee Lamb scored: Wk 1 15.4, Wk 2 35.3. Average 25.3; weighted toward recent games it is 21.0.

2. The defense. Over 2 games, the Jaguars allowed 17.9 points to their opponent's WR1. The league average for that slot is 17.0, so that is +5%.

3. Trusting small samples less. With 2 defensive games, only 40% of the gap is applied, capped at +/-30%. That gives a +2% adjustment (x1.02).

4. Result. 21.0 x 1.02 = 21.4. 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 CeeDee Lamb is to reach it as a WR1.

43%
chance of 21+ PPR points
Why this percentage?

The projection (21.4) 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 12.8 points, leaning on CeeDee Lamb's own game-to-game swings once there are several games (and on typical WR 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 21.

With only 2 games 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%.

Medium confidence
  • CeeDee Lamb averages 25.3 PPR points over 2 games (recent-weighted 26.5) and has played as the team's WR1.
  • The Jaguars have allowed 17.9 points to WR1s over 2 games (+5% vs league). The model applies 40% of that gap because the sample is small, giving a +2% adjustment.
  • Last season's average (15.5) is blended in at 50% weight because this season's sample is small.
  • Projection: 21.4 points.
  • For reference, a typical weekly starter-level WR scores about 11.8 and a top-tier one about 20.8.
  • A statistical model from box scores, Vegas lines, weather and injury tags. It cannot see role changes or in-game events.

CeeDee Lamb's stats vs the Jaguars

Season so far, compared with what the group you pick below has done against the Jaguars, plus a projection for this game.

What is this table?

Rows at the top are every game CeeDee Lamb has played this season, using the same stat columns as the table above.

Compare against picks which group of Jaguars opponents to line them up with: the best WR they faced in each game (1), the second best (2), the third best (3), or all of the top three. Nobody knows which slot CeeDee Lamb will land in this week, so this is your call, not a guess.

Jaguars avg is the average line of that group. Difference is that minus CeeDee Lamb's own average: green means the defense gives that slot more than CeeDee Lamb usually produces.

Projected is CeeDee Lamb's recent-weighted average scaled by how generous the Jaguars 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.
