Takes in each band
Everyone writing under this banner, pooled into the numbers above. Counted by article, with a paginated series counting once — the same rule used for an individual, from the published methodology.
Teams and players where Sharp Football Analysis’s writers keep landing outside the room: at least twice, a call published under this banner sat beyond every other pundit who made a comparable one — higher or lower than all of them, in a room of at least five voices. The bar is the banner’s standing lean (+100 would be the most bullish voice in every room), and the accuracy covers just those out-on-a-limb calls, once they settle. Computed, never chosen.

Jadarian Price to finish RB2 (13–24) at his position, by fantasy points

I am still starting Brown where I have him, just with WR2 expectations .
Puka Nacua to be 1st on the depth chart

Fernando Mendoza to be 2nd on the depth chart
There's no way Mendoza starts Week 1. Or Week 2. He's simply not ready.
Kirk Cousins to be 1st on the depth chart
I fully expect Kubiak to say we're “going with Cousins in Week 1 and Mendoza will learn.”
