Explosive Play Profile
Long-play efficiency, volume, repeatability, and the selected league’s bonus opportunities in one view.
How the explosive profile and league overlay work
The NFL Explosive Index compares a player only with the same position. Its season model blends impact per opportunity, impact per game, positional share, long-touchdown rate, and longest gain; the career index blends 50% peak season, 30% recent three-season form, and 20% career share percentile. The league overlay reads synchronized Sleeper scoring for long-play and yardage-threshold bonuses. Those rules affect league-scored projections and fantasy value without rewriting the player’s league-neutral NFL explosiveness. Source: nflverse play-by-play and Sleeper league settings.

What these charts show
Fantasy points use the selected league’s scoring rules. Opportunity is attempts plus carries for quarterbacks and carries plus targets for running backs, receivers, and tight ends. Efficiency is completion percentage for quarterbacks and scrimmage yards per touch for other offensive positions.
Availability + repeatability
Dependability Index
Two lenses, because weekly trust and dynasty durability are different questions.
50% scoring-floor hit rate • 0% workload stability
53% three-year game availability • 3 seasons of evidence
How dependability is calculated
Weekly dependability blends recorded-game availability, how often the player clears 60% of his median fantasy output, and stability of attempts, carries, and targets. Dynasty dependability emphasizes three-year game availability and repeat seasons, with a small age-context adjustment. Scores use PPR scoring and do not treat ceiling as reliability.
2024 Production & Efficiency
NFL production supplied by nflverse. Same-position ranks include qualified players from the selected season. Volume ranks require 20 touches; yards per touch requires 50. Fantasy output elsewhere on this page is recalculated with standard PPR scoring.
