Floor and ceiling show the lower and upper ends of the player's recent scoring range. The projection is the middle estimate after current role, matchup, and same-week availability are applied.
Why the model leans this way
Role first. Matchup second. Availability always visible.
Two viable FLEX options with similar weekly projections, compared through recent opportunity, scoring format, matchup and current availability.
Ja'Marr Chase: recent role lowers the estimate, and the matchup is neutral. Jeremiyah Love: recent role raises the estimate, and the matchup is neutral.
Availability adjustments apply only when the source contains a Week 5 report. Older designations remain visible in the injury archive but do not reduce this projection.
Week 4 final result
Jeremiyah Love scored more. The pregame lean was wrong.
Ja'Marr Chase: 4.2 Half PPR · Jeremiyah Love: 6.0 Half PPR.
