I did my master’s in data science thesis on machine learning modeling for fantasy football - here’s what the data says about Woody Marks 2026 outlook and beyond, given his year 2 statistical comps: 15/20 hit 1+ Top 24 FPPG finish (75%) 5/20 hit 1+ Top 12 FPPG finish (25%) 2/20 hit 1+ Top 5 FPPG finish (10%) ___________________________________________ Year 2 FPPG distribution specifically: Floor → 2.09 Q1 (25th % outcome) → 6.23 Median → 7.66 Q3 (75th % outcome)→ 13.33 Ceiling → 14.78 While the year 2 comps don’t have Woody Marks profiling as anything near a generational talent with sustained success, I think the fantasy community has broadly written him off entirely with the signing of David Montgomery. If anything, I actually think this could improve Marks’ outlook in fantasy as it will allow him to play more to his strengths - being involved in the Houston receiving game through the backfield. I see him now profiling as a low-end flex option in 2026, but having high-end handcuff upside if DMont were to get hurt - especially if Houston realizes the impact he can have in the receiving game. What do you guys think about Woody Marks?
