Should you start Geno Smith in Week 5?
Bench
Not in a standard 12-team league. LMD ranks Geno Smith QB22 for Week 5, outside the QB12 starter line and outside the range this reading covers. He finishes inside QB12 in 33% of simulated weeks.
The starter line is a standard 12-team lineup's, and is the line LMD's weekly accuracy review grades this board against.

- Full model minus the model without each factor.
- Effects are not additive or changes in rank.
- Recent data includes its effect on blending weights.
- A range note means a factor moved the spread and not the expected points.

Methodology
How this is measured
Every figure on this page comes from a Monte Carlo batch of 10,000 simulated 12-team Full PPR Superflex drafts, each one played out pick by pick by the same simulated managers that fill an empty seat in a live room.
Geno Smith was selected in 329 of those 10000 drafts. Every probability here rests on that count.
We license no ADP feed of our own, so a reach or a fall on this page is measured against a price inferred from our own rankings -- a statement about our board, not about the market.
