What moves the order
Production first. Workload and matchup within guardrails.
Recent scoring establishes each player's baseline. Carries, targets and snap share adjust it within a limited range, followed by the opponent's positional defense.
Only current-week listed availability changes the estimate. Recheck official inactive lists before kickoff.
