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.

Weekly dependability
62C

67% scoring-floor hit rate • 42% workload stability

Dynasty dependability
94A

90% 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.
