Prospect Watch, Week 9: Golden climbs 14, Henderson drops 15
The same fourteen Prospects cards are in the field for a second week, and the trade deadline passed with none of the 32 moved. Matthew Golden climbed most, 50% to 64%, after Green Bay won 45–27 in New England, and Treveyon Henderson fell furthest, 79% to 64%.
Week 9 is in, and the trade deadline has passed. A Prospects card takes a one-time +5 to every rating if its player’s team makes the Playoffs, and stays as pulled if it does not. None of the 32 cards in Prospects #1 and Prospects #2 was traded, so every card’s team is now settled for the season. When a team gets in, raise that card’s rating by five in your own collection. Nothing does it for you.
The odds blend ten sources this week: Kalshi and Polymarket, bet365, five published projection models including ESPN’s, and two simulations of the 136 games left, run with the league’s tiebreakers. For a seller’s view of the same 32 cards, with what each is fetching on the market, Relvig Cire’s Community Blog post says whether to sell or hold every one.
Who is in?
For the second week running, the same fourteen cards are on teams holding a playoff seed, and the odds still expect fourteen to take +5. All four NFC North teams hold a seed, which puts Caleb Williams, Tate Ratledge, Jordan Addison and Matthew Golden in together.
Five are at 93% or better: DeWayne Carter at 98%, Brian Thomas Jr. at 97%, Mykel Williams at 96%, Sai'vion Jones at 94% and Jalen Rivers at 93%.
MATTHEW GOLDEN — WR, Green Bay Packers. The biggest riser of the week, 50% to 64%. Green Bay won 45–27 at New England to go 6–3 and stays seventh in the NFC. Minnesota visits on Sunday: 76% with a win, 48% with a loss.
ABDUL CARTER — LB, New York Giants. Up from 60% to 69% after a 19–11 win in Philadelphia. The Giants are 5–2–1, lead the NFC East and hold the NFC’s third seed. Washington visits on Sunday: 81% with a win, 54% with a loss.
TREVEYON HENDERSON — RB, New England Patriots. The biggest fall of the week, 79% to 64%, on the other side of that 45–27 game. New England is 5–4 and holds on to seventh in the AFC. The trip to Detroit on Sunday: 76% with a win, 55% with a loss.
JORDAN ADDISON — WR, Minnesota Vikings. Down from 83% to 78% after a 23–6 home loss to Buffalo, Minnesota’s second loss in a row, which dropped it from second in the NFC to sixth. The trip to Green Bay on Sunday: 90% with a win, 69% with a loss.
JA'TAVION SANDERS — TE, Carolina Panthers. Still the fourth seed, because Carolina leads the NFC South at 3–5 on a tiebreaker with New Orleans, but a 26–21 loss to Denver took its odds from 32% to 27%. The trip to New Orleans on Sunday decides the lead: 38% with a win, 17% with a loss.
On the bubble
Four cards are outside today with odds of 30% or better.
ZACH CHARBONNET — RB, Seattle Seahawks. Seattle beat Arizona 17–3 to go 5–4 and is eighth in the NFC, and the odds held at 46%. The sources still split: 52% in the markets, 44% in the models. The trip to Las Vegas on Sunday: 51% with a win, 35% with a loss.
KAMREN KINCHENS — S, Los Angeles Rams. A 20–13 win in Washington took the Rams to 5–4, but the odds slipped from 45% to 43%. They are ninth in the NFC with the hardest schedule left in the league. The trip to Arizona on Sunday: 49% with a win, 25% with a loss.
GRAHAM BARTON — C, Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Tampa Bay lost 27–24 at Chicago and is 3–6, but the odds held at 43%. It is half a game behind Carolina for the NFC South and has the best margin in the division, +24. A bye in Week 10, then a trip to Detroit: 54% with a win, 36% with a loss.
KAMARI LASSITER — CB, Houston Texans. Up from 24% to 33% after Houston won 44–22 at the Chargers. The Texans are 3–5 and eleventh in the AFC, and Sunday at Cleveland is the biggest swing on the calendar for any card: 43% with a win, 14% with a loss.
