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.

Availability + repeatability

Dependability Index

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

Weekly dependability
62C

100% scoring-floor hit rate • 100% workload stability

Dynasty dependability
48D

14% three-year game availability • 3 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.
