Week 12 Fantasy Football Projections

Ags Win in 7-OT Game!

Don’t normally talk about college football here, but that game last night was pretty darn insane!  I can’t imagine how all the fans in the stands felt being there for a five hour game.  It was pretty incredible to watch from home though.

Here are your updated projections for the week.  With two teams on a Bye and 6 teams already having played this week, you’ll see several players in these lists that don’t normally crack the Top 12 or 20.  Good luck this week!

*The predictions for this model comes from statistics tables scraped from The Huddle and Football Outsiders from 2006-2018 .   Injury data is from Rotoworld as of 3:00 PM, Thursday, November 1, 2018. 

As usual I used the Fantasy Points-Per-Reception (PPR) scores for my predictions which comes from the following:

  • 1 point per 25 yards passing
  • 4 points per passing touchdown
  • -2 points per interception thrown
  • 1 point per reception
  • 1 point per 10 yards rushing/receiving
  • 6 points per TD
  • 2 points per two-point conversion
  • -2 points per fumbles lost
