    Tight End Utilization


    Player Utilization Numbers - Tight End

    TwoMinuteWarning's fantasy player stats are designed to take into account more than the basic yards and touchdown numbers. By watching every play of every game, we can provide in-depth analysis beyond the ordinary. Our focus is to measure a player's utilization and opportunities to accrue fantasy points, along with his actual game efforts.

    Our player utilization stats showcase the following data:

    • Plays -- the number of times the player either rushed, passed, or was the intended receiver

    • Play % -- the percentage of a team's total offensive plays that the player either rushed, passed or was the intended receiver

    • Red Zone Plays -- the number of times the player either rushed, passed or was the intended receiver inside the opponent's 20 yard line

    • Red Zone % -- the percentage of a team's total red zone offensive plays that the player either rushed, passed or was the intended receiver

    • Inside the 5 -- the number of plays at the opponent's 5 yard line or closer that a player rushed, passed or was the intended receiver

    • Production % -- We calculate an 'opportunity points' value for every play and then produce a production ratio of a player's actual fantasy points compared to his opportunity points.

    How to use these ratings: since opportunity and performance will over the long haul go hand in hand to some extent, you should upgrade players with both high utilization and good actual performance. A player with a low number of active plays but big stats (generally from touchdowns) is unlikely to continue to perform as well. On the other hand a player with lots of opportunities but little in the way of results may be in danger of seeing his "opps" diminish since his production is poor.
