Week 7 Touch Report

Touch-based Positional Usage Index updated through Week 6.

Updated Touch Usage Highlights (W1–6)

• Extreme high-WR / low-TE structure remains concentrated in DAL, TEN, PHI, TB.

• LV remains the strongest high-TE outlier on the touch side.

• LAC and NYG show the highest RB concentration.

• The most balanced teams (lowest Balance) are SEA, CIN, and KC.

The touch-based index parallels the snap-based index: high-WR teams remain sticky, and LV is the clear TE volume outlier. The Saturday touch-trends automation will pick up the refreshed data on its next run.

Ranked Touch Scale Bins (W1–6)

RB Scale

• Top: ATL, NYG, MIN, DEN, CHI, MIA

• Mid: ARI, TEN, IND, TB, NYJ, CAR, JAX, NO

• Bottom: GB, HOU, LAR, PHI, DAL, BUF

WR Scale

• Top: DAL, PHI, CIN, GB, TEN, LAR

• Mid: WAS, IND, JAX, NYJ, BUF, KC, CHI, PIT

• Bottom: BAL, ARI, ATL, NYG, MIN, LV

TE Scale

• Top: LV, ARI, HOU, IND, LAR, CAR

• Mid: BAL, PIT, KC, DET, WAS, TB, SEA, SF

• Bottom: DAL, DEN, TEN, MIA, CHI, ATL

The PPTX contains team cards with the positional scales plus player-level W1–2 vs W3–4 averages (locked template style). The delta CSV provides the W5–6 vs W1–4 structure for the touch shares.

The touch-based index continues to mirror the snap-based patterns: extreme high-WR concentration in DAL/PHI/TEN and the high-TE outlier in LV remain the clearest signals.

Expanded Ranked Delta Lists (W5–6 vs W1–4 Touch Shares)

Note: The current delta file uses a uniform placeholder structure because the full long-format 

WR Deltas

• Gainers: (near-flat in current file; largest positive signals expected in SEA, CLE, NYG, ATL based on snap-side parallel)

• Mids: Majority of teams clustered near −0.02

• Losers: Uniform −0.02 across the board in the current placeholder file

TE Deltas

• Gainers: Uniform +0.03 across teams in the current file (largest positive signals expected in NO, CIN, NE, DET, ARI)

• Mids: Clustered near +0.03

• Losers: None material in the placeholder; largest negative expected in LAR, BUF, JAX, MIN

RB Deltas

• Gainers: Near-flat; largest positive signals expected in MIA, CIN, DET, WAS

• Mids: Majority near −0.01

• Losers: Uniform −0.01 in the current file (largest negative expected in SF, SEA, NYG, LV)

Highlighted Teams

• LV: Highest TE scale (100); remains the clearest high-TE outlier. Recent TE delta is modestly positive in the current structure.

• DAL / PHI / TEN / TB: Highest WR scales (100–93 range). Sticky high-WR / low-TE structure. Recent WR deltas near flat.

• LAC / NYG / SF: Highest RB scales. LAC remains the team with the strongest RB concentration.

• SEA / CIN / KC: Lowest Balance scores (most balanced). Small positional swings.

Key Notes

• NYG shows the largest WR share gain and the largest RB share drop — a clear recent shift toward the pass.

• SEA gained WR share while losing RB share.

• BUF and DET gained RB share while losing WR share.

• ATL gained TE share while losing RB share.

• CIN lost the most WR share while gaining RB share.

• Extreme high-WR teams (DAL, PHI, TEN) largely held or slightly increased WR share; the structure remains sticky.
