About this rating

The College Explosive Profile summarizes repeatable big-play production against same-position peers using verified college play-by-play evidence. It provides additional context for rookie evaluation without replacing draft capital, projections, market consensus, role, or availability. Data source: cfbfastR SportsDataverse play-by-play.

About this rating

The Explosive Index summarizes how a player’s big-play production compares with others at the same position. FantasyLeagueIQ evaluates verified NFL play-by-play evidence and keeps the underlying NFL rating separate from league-specific scoring. When a league is connected, its scoring settings are applied to projections and fantasy value so the analysis reflects that league without changing the player’s core profile. Data sources: nflverse and synchronized league settings.

What these charts show

These charts summarize production, opportunity, and efficiency across recorded games. When a league is connected, fantasy output reflects that league’s scoring settings; otherwise a standard scoring context is used. The comparisons are designed to make a player’s recent performance easier to interpret.

Availability + repeatability

Dependability Index

Two lenses, because weekly trust and dynasty durability are different questions.

Weekly dependability
45D

57% scoring-floor hit rate • 32% workload stability

Dynasty dependability
60C

47% three-year game availability • 2 seasons of evidence

About dependability

The Dependability Index summarizes availability and consistency across short- and long-term contexts. Weekly and dynasty views answer different reliability questions and are evaluated separately. Connected-league scoring may personalize the weekly context. The rating describes reliability, not a player’s ceiling.

How this affects value

FLIQ value signal • projection outlook, market consensus, athletic and explosive profile, league and roster context. Athletic and draft inputs are supporting evidence—not a replacement for current projections, market consensus, production, availability, or the selected league’s rules.
