Borderline

#20 QB projection — on the borderline of the ~18 started in 12-team superflex.

Borderline call: Kyler Murray projects for 14.6 PPR points this week, ranked #20 among QBs by our projection model. @NO is a tough matchup for QBs — the model applies a -9% swing to his projection. Vegas posts the total at 44.5 — 94% of the 47.2 league average for week 5.
