Heads up
  • Teammate Garrett Wilson (a top target) is questionable.

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 Kenyon Sadiq should do vs the BearsSeason log, the group you pick, and a projection

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

What is this table?

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

Compare against picks which group of Bears 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 Kenyon Sadiq will land in this week, so this is your call, not a guess.

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

Projected is Kenyon Sadiq's recent-weighted average scaled by how generous the Bears 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.

Prediction & chance to scoreKenyon Sadiq vs the Bears

Prediction for Kenyon Sadiq

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

If Kenyon Sadiq plays as
9.8
projected PPR points

I predict about 9.8 points for Kenyon Sadiq if playing as a TE1. Kenyon Sadiq has averaged 12.9 over 3 games, and the Bears have given up 4.4 to TE1s (-58% vs the league average of 10.5).

How this projection is built

1. The player. Kenyon Sadiq scored: Wk 1 11.4, Wk 2 3.7, Wk 3 23.5. Average 12.9; weighted toward recent games it is 13.8.

2. The defense. Over 3 games, the Bears allowed 4.4 points to their opponent's TE1. The league average for that slot is 10.5, so that is -58%.

3. Trusting small samples less. With 3 defensive games, only 50% of the gap is applied, capped at +/-30%. That gives a -29% adjustment (x0.71).

4. Result. 13.8 x 0.71 = 9.8. 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 Kenyon Sadiq is to reach it as a TE1.

39%
chance of 10+ PPR points
Why this percentage?

The projection (9.8) 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 7.9 points, leaning on Kenyon Sadiq'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 10.

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%.
