Start/sit
The mean, the floor, the ceiling, and the certainty stack: the ranking number, the range around it, and a desk grade of how hard the math can lean.
Reading the desk
How to read the decision cards
Decide Football prints a card for a roster call. This page is the hub for how to read those cards. It is not a news blog, not a game recap, and not a running wire.
Three notes. Each one owns a different line on the card. How the estimates are built is the methodology. What the product is, and is not, is the about page.
The three guides
Listed status
Healthy through INACTIVE is read before any number.
Waiver radar
Hot, rising, stash, and fade say how hard this desk would chase the name.
Sample desks stay out of search
The sports desks on this site use fixture data: players, start/sit comparisons, is-playing, injuries, rankings, the waiver wire, add/drop, week pages, the slate, and the watchlist. They stay out of search until licensed GREEN sports data is in place. This hub does not promise those URLs will be indexed, and it does not give a date.
Decide Football is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by the NFL or its member clubs. Nothing here is gambling advice, a spread, or a sportsbook. The method is methodology v0, subject to change. No accuracy rate is published here, and none should be inferred.
