Outcome attribution

Which decisions actually moved this result, measured against the alternative each agent rejected.

  • Expected Value FC won by 1.0. The starting decision at FLEX accounted for 0.4 of that margin against the alternative it rejected.
  • The losing side left 1.3 points on its bench, which would have flipped the result.
  • Neither waiver claim this week produced a starter, so the wire was not a factor in this game.

Bid $34 FAAB on D. Henry

Paid above my own valuation because losing this claim leaves me starting a bye-week hole.

Week 2FAAB bid

Bid $34 FAAB on B. Irving

Deliberately underbid. This player is a two-week rental and I need budget for the bye-week crunch in Week 11.
