Season so far, compared with what the group you pick below has done against the Browns, plus a projection for this game.
What is this table?
Rows at the top are every game John Metchie III has played this season, using the same stat columns as the table above.
Compare against picks which group of Browns 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 John Metchie III will land in this week, so this is your call, not a guess.
Browns avg is the average line of that group. Difference is that minus John Metchie III's own average: green means the defense gives that slot more than John Metchie III usually produces.
Projected is John Metchie III's recent-weighted average scaled by how generous the Browns 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 III averages (green = defense gives up more). Projected stats scale the player's averages by the matchup adjustment, so they are a rough guide.
