Heads up
  • Teammate Romeo Doubs (a top target) is on IR, so Henry may see more targets.

A hurt top target or lead back nudges the projection up a little, since their work tends to shift to teammates. QB and offensive-line flags are shown for context but do not change the number.

How Hunter Henry should do vs the JetsSeason log, the group you pick, and a projection

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

What is this table?

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

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

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

Projected is Hunter Henry's recent-weighted average scaled by how generous the Jets 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.

Difference is what the defense allows minus what Henry averages (green = defense gives up more). Projected stats scale the player's averages by the matchup adjustment, so they are a rough guide.

Prediction & chance to scoreHunter Henry vs the Jets

Prediction for Hunter Henry

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

If Hunter Henry plays as
6.9
projected PPR points

I predict about 6.9 points for Hunter Henry if playing as a TE1. Hunter Henry has averaged 7.7 over 5 games, and the Jets have given up 6.2 to TE1s (-41% vs the league average of 10.4).

How this projection is built

1. The player. Hunter Henry scored: Wk 1 5.6, Wk 2 7.0, Wk 3 1.5, Wk 4 11.2, Wk 5 13.4. Average 7.7; weighted toward recent games it is 9.2.

2. The defense. Over 5 games, the Jets allowed 6.2 points to their opponent's TE1. The league average for that slot is 10.4, so that is -41%.

3. Trusting small samples less. With 5 defensive games, only 63% of the gap is applied, capped at +/-30%. That gives a -26% adjustment (x0.74).

4. Result. 9.2 x 0.74 = 6.9. 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 Hunter Henry is to reach it as a TE1.

40%
chance of 7+ PPR points
Why this percentage?

The projection (6.9) 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 4.6 points, leaning on Hunter Henry's own game-to-game swings once there are several games (and on typical TE 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 7.

With only 5 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%.

InsightsPlain-English takeaways from the table
  • TE1s have averaged 3.2 receptions, 29.6 receiving yards and 0.0 receiving TDs against the Jets across 5 games.
  • The Jets allow 6.2 PPR points to TE1s, -41% versus the league average of 10.4 (ranked 28 of 32, where 1 is most generous). That is a tough matchup.
  • Outlier: Week 4, Colston Loveland (11.7 pts, 6 rec, 57 yds) sits far above the other games and pulls the averages up. Average with it vs without it: pts 6.2 vs 4.8; rec 3.2 vs 2.5; yds 29.6 vs 22.8. The table above keeps the raw averages.
  • Outlier: Week 5, Harold Fannin Jr. (1.4 pts, 4 yds) sits far below the other games and drags the averages down. Average with it vs without it: pts 6.2 vs 7.4; yds 29.6 vs 36.0. The table above keeps the raw averages.
