Your Week 5 start 'em, sit 'em calls at QB. Quarterback start/sit calls priced from live passing props and game markets, ranked by market-implied points for the week. Click the › on any row for the live lines behind the projection.

How to read this board

Rk:: His rank among his position this week by points over replacement in your league settings. The position pills switch boards; FLEX mixes RB/WR/TE. With a saved roster your players' rows are highlighted, and the My Team toggle narrows any board to just them.
Opp:: This week's opponent. BYE means he is not playing; bye rows sort to the bottom.
Mkt (under Proj. Pts):: Market-implied points this week from live player props and game markets, with the same † and * marks as the draft board. Hover for his p10 to p90 range. K and DST label this column Proj, since their number is mostly consensus.
Cons:: Expert consensus this week, a trimmed blend of several outside projection sources: the market-free second opinion beside Mkt. A dash means no source covers him.
Δ:: Mkt minus Cons, where the market and the consensus disagree. Green + means the market is higher, red − means lower, and even means they agree within half a point. It says who disagrees, not who is right.
FLR / VOLATILITY / CEIL:: As on the draft board, in points this week: p10 floor, p90 ceiling, and a meter rating his boom-or-bust range against the players of his position currently shown. A dash means no market-priced distribution.
Stat columns:: The market-implied stat line behind the projection in raw units (yards, catches, scores, not points), grouped Passing / Rushing / Receiving. TD columns are often consensus fill because books price a combined anytime-TD market, so lean on yardage for the market's own read.
Lines:: How many live market lines feed his projection. A dash means no line prices him this week, so the row rests on the consensus or model estimate.
Row breakdown (›):: Click a row or its › for every live line and the per-stat distribution behind the number; click the name for his full page.
K and DST:: No player-prop markets price them, so their boards slim to Rk/Player/Opp/Proj and Proj is the consensus number. Their rows open the player page directly.
