This is a preseason schedule snapshot, not a permanent rating. As rosters change, the live version should be recalculated from the current offensive starters. Auction price is used as a quality-weighting proxy; it is not treated as fantasy points.
The outlier

Sam: $332

Across 14 games, opponents are currently scheduled to lose 14 offensive starters representing $332 of auction salary when they face The Dunbear.

Lizard King

$303 avoided

The second-friendliest draw by auction value, despite a major self-inflicted Week 7 bye concentration on the current roster.

The anti-luck draw

Jake: $30

Jake currently catches only two opponent offensive starters on bye all season, a dramatic contrast with the top of the board.
