“Value” is market slot minus our slot: positive means the market lets you draft him later than our blend ranks him. Ranks blend our projection model with ADP at backtested weights, the receipts are on methodology.

Trade value: what to ask for Fernando

Our board has Fernando Mendoza at QB27, #147 overall in PPR, and the market drafts him at ADP 149.8 (QB22). The market prices him about 5 picks higher than we do, so in a trade ask for more than his slot suggests: a fair return is a player the market ranks near #150, and you are giving up someone our model values as a #147. He projects to 177.7 points (floor 80.6, ceiling 241.0).

QBs in that range on our board right now: Tyler Shough (#135, NO), Jordan Love (#137, GB), Sam Darnold (#142, SEA), C.J. Stroud (#161, HOU).
