New York Jets

NYJ · 2026 fantasy football outlook · bye 13

all teams

AI team outlook

Nova ranks the New York Jets offense No. 26 by current PPR room score. That score uses the live depth chart and PPR VORP for QB1, top two RBs, top three WRs, and TE1. Team defense and kicker are shown as late-round ADP context where available.

What do these terms mean?
Depth
His spot on the team's published depth chart at his position, 1 being the starter. Comes from the team, not from Nova.
Nova Rk
Nova's own ranking by VORP, independent of ADP and the experts. The core opinion.
VORP
Value Over Replacement Player: projected points above a freely-available replacement at the same position. Nova's core measure of real value.
Tier
Nova's value tier at the position. A tier break marks a real cliff in value, so Tier 1 is the top group, Tier 2 the next, and so on.
Proj PPG
Nova's projected fantasy points per game.
Bye
His bye week, the week his NFL team does not play.
Early SOS
Strength of schedule over the early season (weeks 1-6).
Playoff SOS
Strength of schedule in the fantasy playoffs (weeks 15-17), which matters most for a title run.
= Nova’s own model, the secret sauce. The rest are the market reference and raw stats Nova is measured against.
