DFS Value Chart – Salary vs Cost Per Point
Our interactive Value Chart converts raw salary into projected fantasy points using cost-per-point (CPP) heuristics tuned for slate pricing curves. By scanning structured salary bands against customizable CPP thresholds you rapidly surface efficiency pockets: players whose salary implies lower expectation than their projection trend or late-week role news. This preview explains the model—sign up free to load live tables, adjust CPP steps, export salary bands and pair results with percentile rankings.
Core Capabilities
- Dynamic table generation across chosen salary & CPP ranges.
- Adjustable CPP granularity to tighten or widen value segmentation.
- Color banding for quick perceptual clustering of profitable ranges.
- Salary normalization logic accounts for slate-specific pricing drifts.
Workflow Advantages
Instead of scanning individual projection rows, the chart frames pricing as value contours—highlighting actionable pockets where mid-salary players produce elite point return or high-salary studs still clear target efficiency. Blend with the QB Percentile Explorer and Distribution usage splits to validate opportunity durability behind efficiency signals.
Use narrower CPP steps late week to isolate under-reacted role shifts; widen early week for macro scanning.
FAQ
Does the chart use projections directly? It converts salary and selected CPP ranges into implied points—full projection overlays appear post sign-up.
Can I change cost-per-point increments? Yes, the CPP Step field lets you refine granularity (e.g. 5, 10, 15) instantly.
