Every tab on this sheet fills itself. There is no hand-picked list here: the model reads tonight’s slate, scores every player, and each tab pulls whoever clears its threshold. Switch between DraftKings and FanDuel at the top.
Cores is signal convergence, the top few per position where value, projection, ceiling and projected minutes all point the same way. Cash sorts on floor, taken as projection minus one standard deviation, for players whose value is at or above the slate median. Value Plays is the cheap salaries the projections like most, capped at three per position. Leverage Plays is the players projected under 10 percent owned with the best ceiling per 1,000 dollars, the plays the field is not on. Tiers groups every position by projection, and Full board is everyone.
Each player carries a tag and a confidence number from 0 to 5. Both are derived, not typed, so they update the moment the slate does. Questionable players are marked and are kept out of Cores and Cash.
