Evaluating Early Air Yard Data - Week 3

Air yards are becoming a more commonly used statistic for fantasy football purposes. Popularized by Josh Hermsmeyer, who developed metrics like RACR (receiver air conversion ratio) and WOPR (weighted opportunity rating), it is a useful way to dig deeper into receiver performance beyond just targets, receptions, and yards gained. Statistics like Mike Clay's aDoT (average […]

Davis's fifth-year […]

Whether due to their own play, the play of others, or injuries, players' stock increases and decreases on a weekly basis.
