QB Forward Prior — DAKOTA & ANY/A

The most forward-looking QB reads: DAKOTA (EPA+CPOE composite) and Adjusted Net Yards per Attempt, with the agreement between them surfaced — not averaged away.

How we read it

DAKOTA — EPA + CPOE composite
nflverse's adjusted EPA + accuracy composite, tuned to predict next-year adjusted EPA/play. The closest public “forward” QB number.
ANY/A — adjusted net yards per attempt
The classic efficiency yardstick, built transparently from raw box columns. A genuinely different forward lens than the composite.
The edge — agreement, not an average
When both priors land in the same tier we read a clean forward signal; when they diverge it's a second look. We surface the disagreement, we don't average it away.

Who the forward lenses like

Two independent forward QB priors from real nflverse weekly data — the DAKOTA EPA + CPOE composite and ANY/A efficiency — converted to percentiles, averaged into a forward grade, with their agreement surfaced rather than averaged away. A forward prior / context, not a point projection or pick.
