Heads up
  • Teammate Carnell Tate (a top target) is out, so Helm may see more targets.

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 Gunnar Helm should do vs the GiantsSeason log, the group you pick, and a projection

Season so far, compared with what the group you pick below has done against the Giants, plus a projection for this game.

What is this table?

Rows at the top are every game Gunnar Helm has played this season, using the same stat columns as the table above.

Compare against picks which group of Giants 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 Gunnar Helm will land in this week, so this is your call, not a guess.

Giants avg is the average line of that group. Difference is that minus Gunnar Helm's own average: green means the defense gives that slot more than Gunnar Helm usually produces.

Projected is Gunnar Helm's recent-weighted average scaled by how generous the Giants 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 Helm 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 scoreGunnar Helm vs the Giants

Prediction for Gunnar Helm

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

If Gunnar Helm plays as
5.3
projected PPR points

I predict about 5.3 points for Gunnar Helm if playing as a TE1. Gunnar Helm has averaged 5.0 over 2 games, and the Giants have given up 10.4 to TE1s (+0% vs the league average of 10.4).

How this projection is built

1. The player. Gunnar Helm scored: Wk 1 6.8, Wk 2 3.3. Average 5.0; weighted toward recent games it is 5.3.

2. The defense. Over 2 games, the Giants allowed 10.4 points to their opponent's TE1. The league average for that slot is 10.4, so that is +0%.

3. Trusting small samples less. With 2 defensive games, only 40% of the gap is applied, capped at +/-30%. That gives a +0% adjustment (x1.00).

4. Result. 5.3 x 1.00 = 5.3. 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 Gunnar Helm is to reach it as a TE1.

46%
chance of 5+ PPR points
Why this percentage?

The projection (5.3) 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 3.2 points, leaning on Gunnar Helm'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 5.

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%.

InsightsPlain-English takeaways from the table

  • 1 of 2 games reached 7+ PPR points. Scores range from 3.4 to 17.4 (median 10.4).
  • TE1s scored a touchdown in 1 of 2 games (50%).
