How Hayden Rucci should do vs the SeahawksSeason log, the group you pick, and a projection
Season so far, compared with what the group you pick below has done against the Seahawks, plus a projection for this game.
What is this table?
Rows at the top are every game Hayden Rucci has played this season, using the same stat columns as the table above.
Compare against picks which group of Seahawks 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 Hayden Rucci will land in this week, so this is your call, not a guess.
Seahawks avg is the average line of that group. Difference is that minus Hayden Rucci's own average: green means the defense gives that slot more than Hayden Rucci usually produces.
Projected is Hayden Rucci's recent-weighted average scaled by how generous the Seahawks 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 | Tgt | Rec | ReYd | ReTD | FPts |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5 | DEN | 1 | 1 | 7 | 1 | 7.7 |
| Rucci avg | 1.0 | 1.0 | 7.0 | 1.0 | 7.7 | |
| Seahawks TE1 avg | 4.0 | 3.3 | 17.3 | 0.7 | 9.1 | |
| Difference | +3.0 | +2.3 | +10.3 | -0.3 | +1.4 | |
Difference is what the defense allows minus what Rucci averages (green = defense gives up more). Projected stats scale the player's averages by the matchup adjustment, so they are a rough guide.
