How Roman Wilson should do vs the BrownsSeason log, the group you pick, and a projection

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 Roman Wilson 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 Roman Wilson 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 Roman Wilson's own average: green means the defense gives that slot more than Roman Wilson usually produces.

Projected is Roman Wilson'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 Wilson 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 scoreRoman Wilson vs the Browns

Prediction for Roman Wilson

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

If Roman Wilson plays as
8.5
projected PPR points

I predict about 8.5 points for Roman Wilson if playing as a WR2. Roman Wilson has averaged 9.5 over 3 games, and the Browns have given up 10.3 to WR2s (+19% vs the league average of 8.7).

How this projection is built

1. The player. Roman Wilson scored: Wk 1 5.6, Wk 2 7.8, Wk 3 15.0. Average 9.5; weighted toward recent games it is 7.8.

2. The defense. Over 3 games, the Browns allowed 10.3 points to their opponent's WR2. The league average for that slot is 8.7, so that is +19%.

3. Trusting small samples less. With 3 defensive games, only 50% of the gap is applied, capped at +/-30%. That gives a +9% adjustment (x1.09).

4. Result. 7.8 x 1.09 = 8.5. 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 Roman Wilson is to reach it as a WR2.

39%
chance of 9+ PPR points
Why this percentage?

The projection (8.5) 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 5.0 points, leaning on Roman Wilson'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 9.

With only 3 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%.
