How Brenton Strange should do vs the RavensSeason log, the group you pick, and a projection
Season so far, compared with what the group you pick below has done against the Ravens, plus a projection for this game.
What is this table?
Rows at the top are every game Brenton Strange has played this season, using the same stat columns as the table above.
Compare against picks which group of Ravens 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 Brenton Strange will land in this week, so this is your call, not a guess.
Ravens avg is the average line of that group. Difference is that minus Brenton Strange's own average: green means the defense gives that slot more than Brenton Strange usually produces.
Projected is Brenton Strange's recent-weighted average scaled by how generous the Ravens 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 Strange averages (green = defense gives up more). Projected stats scale the player's averages by the matchup adjustment, so they are a rough guide.
Start / Sit · Brenton StrangeGood confidence · 9.6 proj pts1/10 start
- Brenton Strange averages 9.6 PPR points over 7 games (recent-weighted 9.8) and has played as the team's TE1.
- The Ravens have allowed 10.0 points to TE1s over 8 games (-5% vs league). The model applies 73% of that gap because the sample is small, giving a -4% adjustment.
- Last season's average (9.8) is blended in at 22% weight because this season's sample is small.
- Game environment +1%: Vegas total 39.5, implied 24.8 points for JAX (league avg 22.6); Favored by 10: leaning run-heavy late; Mild weather (68F, 1 mph wind): no weather adjustment.
- Opposing-defense injuries (+1%): Opposing starter Nate Wiggins (CB) is questionable, which helps the passing game.
- Projection: 9.6 points.
- For reference, a typical weekly starter-level TE scores about 13.5 and a top-tier one about 19.5.
- A statistical model from box scores, Vegas lines, weather and injury tags. It cannot see role changes or in-game events.
Prediction & chance to scoreBrenton Strange vs the Ravens
Prediction for Brenton Strange
Nobody knows which slot Brenton Strange will land in this week, so pick the one you expect. The projection changes because each slot faces a different average from the Ravens.
I predict about 9.4 points for Brenton Strange if playing as a TE1. Brenton Strange has averaged 9.6 over 7 games, and the Ravens have given up 10.0 to TE1s (-5% vs the league average of 10.5).
How this projection is built
1. The player. Brenton Strange scored: Wk 1 10.3, Wk 2 3.7, Wk 3 6.2, Wk 4 16.5, Wk 5 13.8, Wk 6 9.4, Wk 8 7.5. Average 9.6; weighted toward recent games it is 9.8.
2. The defense. Over 8 games, the Ravens allowed 10.0 points to their opponent's TE1. The league average for that slot is 10.5, so that is -5%.
3. Trusting small samples less. With 8 defensive games, only 73% of the gap is applied, capped at +/-30%. That gives a -4% adjustment (x0.96).
4. Result. 9.8 x 0.96 = 9.4. 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 Brenton Strange is to reach it as a TE1.
Why this percentage?
The projection (9.4) 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 4.4 points, leaning on Brenton Strange'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 9.
With only 7 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%.
