Fantasy Quotient
What is fQ?
fQ measures projected fantasy value above replacement for the selected league format and time horizon.
Projected points tell you who is expected to score more. fQ tells you who is more valuable to own.
These values use the default 12-team Half-PPR format. Change the league size, scoring, or starting lineup on Rankings and the replacement level changes. That changes fQ too. The underlying football forecasts stay the same.
