Questions and answers
Where do the ranks come from?
Every defense is ranked against the league on what it has allowed this season, by position where a stat belongs to a position and for the whole defense where it does not. Six games are needed. The highest number is the softest spot, #32 in a 32-team league, and #1 is the toughest. Each card lists up to 5 stats where the defense sits in the softer half.
Why these players?
Players on the offense across from that defense with a posted prop, by where the defense ranks in that prop's own stat. One per position first, up to four, only where the defense is in the softer half, and only at a regular's line. Nobody listed out is included.
If a defense ranks last, will a player go over?
No. A rank says where a defense sits, not what a player will do, and the books already price the matchup. Our tests of matchup grades found they describe a game and do not beat the closing line.
How often does this change?
With the props board: as lines are posted and games finish. A football sheet covers the week and a basketball or hockey sheet the next game day.
Ranks come from box scores and play-by-play: what each defense has allowed this season, against the league. A player's hit rate and the gap against the books' price are on his card and are part of Pro. History, not a pick.
