The chalk: who the field played most
Field ownership is the share of lineups that used each player, from 1 large-field tournament contest, 4,790 entries. Gap is the field minus our projection: green means the field played him more than we expected.
Rebuilt after lock. This slate locked before our archive started saving projections, so these numbers were rebuilt afterwards from the saved salary file. They were not captured before lock, so treat the grade as a weaker test than a pre-lock one.

1 contest · not enough to grade
Why there is no grade
We grade a contest type once it has at least 2 contests behind it. This slate has results from one large-field tournament contest (4,790 entries), so the tables above show that contest, and we do not put a grade on it.
