Heads up
  • Backfield mate David Montgomery is out, so Marks could see more carries.

A hurt top target or lead back nudges the projection up a little, since their work tends to shift to teammates. QB and offensive-line flags are shown for context but do not change the number.

How Woody Marks 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 Woody Marks 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 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 Woody Marks 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 Woody Marks's own average: green means the defense gives that slot more than Woody Marks usually produces.

Projected is Woody Marks'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 Marks 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 · Woody MarksGood confidence · 9.7 proj pts5/10 start
  • Woody Marks averages 8.9 PPR points over 7 games (recent-weighted 9.4) and has played as the team's RB1.
  • The Browns have allowed 16.9 points to RB1s over 8 games (+5% vs league). The model applies 73% of that gap because the sample is small, giving a +3% adjustment.
  • Last season's average (9.1) is blended in at 22% weight because this season's sample is small.
  • Projection: 9.7 points.
  • For reference, a typical weekly starter-level RB scores about 13.1 and a top-tier one about 20.9.

Prediction & chance to scoreWoody Marks vs the Browns

Prediction for Woody Marks

Nobody knows which slot Woody Marks 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 Woody Marks plays as
9.7
projected PPR points

I predict about 9.7 points for Woody Marks if playing as a RB1. Woody Marks has averaged 8.9 over 7 games, and the Browns have given up 16.9 to RB1s (+5% vs the league average of 16.1).

How this projection is built

1. The player. Woody Marks scored: Wk 1 5.0, Wk 2 8.5, Wk 3 9.1, Wk 4 8.2, Wk 5 12.5, Wk 6 10.1, Wk 7 9.1. Average 8.9; weighted toward recent games it is 9.3.

2. The defense. Over 8 games, the Browns allowed 16.9 points to their opponent's RB1. The league average for that slot is 16.1, 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 +3% adjustment (x1.03).

4. Result. 9.3 x 1.03 = 9.7. 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 Woody Marks is to reach it as a RB1.

41%
chance of 10+ PPR points
Why this percentage?

The projection (9.7) 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 3.9 points, leaning on Woody Marks'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 10.

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%.
