Who the clubs cannot easily replace
Every man here is listed first or second at his position on his club's own published depth chart, and there is something to say about his availability. The order is that rank, then what the club has said, then the share of snaps he has actually played. We invent no importance score — both halves are facts somebody else published.

Our own reading, least certain first. The band is the product: it is a measured bucket with a published play rate, and only the two ends are decisive. How this works.

What the clubs have already said
These are not our calls. Each club files an injury report and declares a man Out; we restate it here so the week is complete, and we take no credit for it. There is nothing early about repeating an announcement — the product is on the page above this one.

What a call is not
A PLAY call means we expect him on the field, not that he is healthy. Of the calls that are ours rather than a club's announcement, almost none are scratches, and that is a property of the problem rather than a gap: at this base rate almost nothing moves a case far enough to call a scratch with confidence. How this works.
