Value = projected points per $1,000 of salaryDiscount = what he should cost minus what he costsLeverage = ceiling against ownershipHow to read it
Value
Projected DraftKings points divided by salary in thousands. Three and up is a strong number at most positions; kickers and defenses run higher because they are cheap.
Discount
Every week we fit what a projection should cost at each position on this slate. Discount is that fair salary minus the real salary. A positive discount means the site priced him under his projection. It is the cleanest single value number because it does not favor cheap players by default.
Leverage and ceiling
P90 is his 90th percentile score in our simulations. Leverage is that ceiling divided by projected ownership, so a high number is a ceiling the field is not paying for. Cash games want value and floor; tournaments want value with leverage.
Where it comes from
The same slate files the lineup builder uses: our projections blended with the market line, ownership from the model until the vendor sheets are banked, and the lineup builder's own exposure so you can see what our sets did with each value.
