Howell Fantasy League Power Pulse

The ranking

Power Pulse rankings

Ranked by expected performance. The value column compares that to each team's trade-value rank.

What these players are worth in a deal. In a redraft league that is a bargaining position rather than a standing, so the table is ordered by projected wins.

Power Pulse rankings, ordered by Power Pulse score. Columns: rank, team, Power Pulse score, outlook (competing, mid-table, or rebuilding), leverage rank with the difference between the two rankings, projected record, playoff odds, and lineup efficiency. Activate a team to open its full breakdown.

Where this ends up

How Power Pulse works

How many games a team should win from here, as a 1 to 99 score ranked inside this league only. A 70 is the seventieth percentile against these opponents, not against every league on the site.

Where the numbers come from

Your league's scoring. Every projection rescored under your actual settings, not generic PPR. Here: 0.5 PPR, 5 point passing TDs.
Your best lineup, every week. Your real starting slots filled optimally, including byes, superflex, and every flex variant.
Opponent strength. Points each NFL defense gave up to each position over the last two seasons, weighted toward the recent one.
Player reliability. How often each player beats their own projection, with this season weighted heaviest and small samples pulled toward neutral.
Availability and injuries. Current designations suppress the coming week, season-long ones the rest of the year, and the next player up takes the slot.
The actual schedule. Your real slate from Sleeper, simulated thousands of times for playoff and title odds.

How the score is weighted

Scoring, meaning projected points per week: 55%
Schedule-adjusted win rate: 25%
Depth and bye coverage: 10%
Recent form against expectation: 10%

What it deliberately ignores

Draft picks. A 2028 first cannot start for you in week 4, so it has no place in a competitive score. Picks still count toward the trade-value rankings the value column compares against.

Limits: projections are one source's opinion, weekly outcomes are modeled as independent, and the bracket reseeds each round. The odds are a guide, not a promise.

Scarcity

Positional WAR

How steeply each position drops off in this league. Top 25 at each.

Wins over replacement

The brighter horizontal line is replacement level: zero extra matchups. The hollow marker on each line is the last player at that position this league starts.

Weeks 8 to 14. Built from weekly projections for the rest of the season, not from what players have already done. Scored under this league's own settings: 0.5 PPR, 5 point passing TDs. A replacement player is the best one at his position who would not make a starting lineup anywhere in this 12-team league. Sleeper projections, model war-5, Oct 28, 2026, 3:43 PM EDT.
