A player of this caliber scores 30 or more points weekly, which has never happened since we started tracking NFL in-game production 11 years ago. However, Aaron Rodgers came in as our Ultimate Playmaker for 2011 with a rating of 37 for Points Per Receptions (PPR) and 41 for Standard Scoring (STD) format. In order to achieve, a rating of 41 (STD) this is what Aaron Rodgers accomplished – 533 total Fantasy Points, 20 or greater fantasy points 15 times, and 30 or greater 12 times. Now that is a Stud with Dominate Statistics! Based on in game performance, the Ultimate Playmaker was Christian McCaffrey with a rating of 36 for the 2023 season, at the RB position, in our Points Per Reception (PPR) Scoring System. Based on 2023 in game performance, the Ultimate Playmaker was Josh Allen with a rating of 36 for the 2022 season, at the QB position, in our Standard (STD) Scoring System.) What is the UPM Drafting Concept?  The UPM concept gives you the information needed to select players who are trending up, we call this the break-out value. Our principle of drafting is to identify those players trending up. Players trending up tend to produce at higher percentages. When you select break-out candidates you can have multiple players simultaneously having career years. For Example, Our Analysis of the QB position over the last 5 years had several players who had bounce-back seasons, meaning players coming off a year where they only produced half of their normal in-game production. We suggest caution in selecting players in their bounce-back seasons because their value is not as strong as those players who have the – BREAK OUT VALUE.
