How Jaylen Wright should do vs the VikingsSeason log, the group you pick, and a projection
Season so far, compared with what the group you pick below has done against the Vikings, plus a projection for this game.
What is this table?
Rows at the top are every game Jaylen Wright has played this season, using the same stat columns as the table above.
Compare against picks which group of Vikings opponents to line them up with: the best RB they faced in each game (1), the second best (2), the third best (3), or all of the top three. Nobody knows which slot Jaylen Wright will land in this week, so this is your call, not a guess.
Vikings avg is the average line of that group. Difference is that minus Jaylen Wright's own average: green means the defense gives that slot more than Jaylen Wright usually produces.
Projected is Jaylen Wright's recent-weighted average scaled by how generous the Vikings 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 Wright 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 scoreJaylen Wright vs the Vikings
Prediction for Jaylen Wright
Nobody knows which slot Jaylen Wright will land in this week, so pick the one you expect. The projection changes because each slot faces a different average from the Vikings.
I predict about 2.9 points for Jaylen Wright if playing as a RB2. Jaylen Wright has averaged 0.5 over 2 games, and the Vikings have given up 4.6 to RB2s (-1% vs the league average of 4.6).
How this projection is built
1. The player. Jaylen Wright scored: Wk 1 -0.1, Wk 2 1.1. Average 0.5; weighted toward recent games it is 3.0.
2. The defense. Over 3 games, the Vikings allowed 4.6 points to their opponent's RB2. The league average for that slot is 4.6, so that is -1%.
3. Trusting small samples less. With 3 defensive games, only 50% of the gap is applied, capped at +/-30%. That gives a -1% adjustment (x0.99).
4. Result. 3.0 x 0.99 = 2.9. 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 Jaylen Wright is to reach it as a RB2.
Why this percentage?
The projection (2.9) 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 1.8 points, leaning on Jaylen Wright's own game-to-game swings once there are several games (and on typical RB 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 3.
With only 2 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%.
