2022 Volume Opportunity Tiers
The purpose of these tables is to show, unemotionally, which players are ‘likely’ to get the volume needed to produce and which have the upside based on being on good teams (i.e. the better the team, the better the touchdown opportunity).
You may like a player in a lower tier to produce at a higher level – that’s ok, go get your guy! But remember that you are making that decision based on your view of what that player could be, not the raw data of what that player’s opportunity is likely to be.
As always, we want our information to help guide you. We want it to help you look at the draft board in a different way, to see (in this case) which players need to outperform their likely volume or the team situation to pay off over players with a more stable workload.
Notes
The following tables portray ‘tiers’ with the players in no particular order within those tiers.
The tiers are colour-coded to show the delineation between one tier and the next.
These tables use projections to group players based on their projected volume. Those players on good teams then also get grouped together to form the tiers.
e.g. great volume + good offense > great volume alone > ok volume + good offense
Key
Earliest Ideal Round = based on the volume and opportunity, ideally you don’t want to take that player before this round. It’s ok to do so, but you need them to outperform their ‘likely’ opportunity
Opportunity (+) or Risk (-) = the difference between their projected points per game and the points per game that you need to pay off the draft cost (i.e. the points that should be expected from taking a player in that round)
