PosGPP and PosCash ranks are player rankings provided by Hero AI that are broken down by position, offering a more granular view of how players stack up within their specific positions. While the overall GPP and Cash ranks assess the entire player pool, Positional Ranks (PosGPP and PosCash) focus on comparing players within the same position, giving you a clearer idea of the best options at each spot.
How They Work:
• PosGPP Ranks:
• Purpose: These ranks are tailored for GPP (Guaranteed Prize Pool) tournaments, where upside and differentiation are key.
• Factors Considered:
• Upside: The potential for a player to exceed their expected performance.
• Leverage: How a player’s ownership compares to their optimal potential, helping you find under-the-radar picks.
• Ceiling Points per Dollar: The maximum fantasy points a player can achieve relative to their cost.
• Boom Potential: The likelihood of a player delivering an explosive, game-changing performance.
• Use: PosGPP ranks help you identify the best high-risk, high-reward players within each position for GPP contests.
• PosCash Ranks:
• Purpose: These ranks are designed for Cash games, where consistency and minimizing risk are crucial.
• Factors Considered:
• Bust Probability: The chance of a player underperforming relative to expectations.
• Floor: The minimum fantasy points a player is likely to score, ensuring a safer pick.
• Ownership: The percentage of the field expected to roster the player, helping you balance popular and contrarian choices.
• Use: PosCash ranks help you identify the safest, most reliable players within each position for Cash games.
Why They Matter:
• Position-Specific Insights: PosGPP and PosCash ranks give you a focused view of how players compare within their own positions, helping you make more strategic decisions when building lineups.
• Tailored Strategies: By understanding the factors behind each rank, you can tailor your lineup strategy to either maximize upside in GPPs or ensure consistency in Cash games, all while taking into account the positional context.
PosGPP and PosCash ranks are powerful tools for optimizing your DFS lineups, providing you with position-specific insights that align with your overall contest strategy.
