Fantasy Football · Week 7
Usage
Who was on the field and who got the ball, for every player who saw the field — and what that usage should have scored before luck got involved.
What matters: snap share and target or carry share, because those stick from week to week. Air yards and red-zone touches tell you the kind of role. Luck is the part that tends not to repeat.

How to read it
Start with snaps and shares. Snap share is whether a player is on the field; target share and carry share are whether the offense runs through him when he is. Those two things together are most of what a fantasy season is made of, and they change slowly, which is why they lead every table here.
Air yards and depth of target tell you the kind of role. A receiver with a big air-yards share is being asked to make plays downfield whether or not they connected. Deep and end-zone targets, goal-line carries and red-zone touches are the chances to score, which are far steadier than the scores themselves.
Expected points is this site's own number: what a player's touches were worth on average given where on the field and how far downfield they came. Luck is his real points minus that. A big positive is a hot week; a big negative on good usage is the buy-low list.

Routes run and yards per route run come from charting companies and are not open data, so they are not here, and this page would rather leave a column out than guess at it.
