Week 4 Scorecard: How Our Boldest Calls Did

Every Week 4 start and sit call graded against what actually happened: who we got right, where the experts had it, and by how much.

← The Week 4 calls as they were locked

Each Week 4 call was a claim that our positional rank was closer to the truth than the experts'. So each one is graded by which rank the player's actual finish landed nearer to: ours or consensus. Nearer only counts if it was close, though: when the nearer rank still missed by more than 18 spots at RB or WR, or 9 at QB or TE, neither side was right and the call is graded "neither" rather than handed to whoever was less wrong. 29 of them could be graded. Across the 28 where the player finished with a rank, our ranks missed the actual finish by 21.3 spots on average; consensus missed by 19.9.

Our best call was Jalen Hurts: we had him QB20, consensus had QB5, and he finished QB20. Our worst was DK Metcalf, WR47 to us and WR26 by consensus, who finished WR16.

The calls were locked on Sep 30, 2026, 12:08 PM ET. Finishes are Sleeper's PPR positional ranks for the week. A player with no line for the week is shown but not graded. Sleeper ranks only the players who scored, so one who took the field and finished below all of them shows as unranked: the call still goes to whichever side had him lower, but it carries no distance and is left out of the averages above.

Season to date

Every call from Weeks 1-4, graded the same way. The season numbers stop at this week, so this page keeps saying what the record was after Week 4 rather than what it is now.

The calls are read back from the capture taken before kickoff, on September 30, 2026 at 12:08 PM EDT, and graded against Sleeper's final PPR positional ranks for the week. Both sides of every row are fixed records, so nothing on this page moves as consensus does.
