The same player can require a different decision depending on your competitive window and the liquidity of the return.
A contender can use Alvin Kamara when the recent workload helps a real starting decision; price the asset for the current title window, not for an indefinite workload. A short competitive window is required to justify holding the risk.
A rebuilder should shop Alvin Kamara for draft liquidity or a younger asset when another roster values the current tier more than the remaining career window. 3-week observed sample is a reason to set a bounded price, not to wait for an invented future role.

FairPlay's strongest scored input is roster status (100), while efficiency is the main limitation. The usage record can test that read but cannot verify an external price or future outcome.
A second verified row that materially changes touch volume and yards per touch from Week 9 would test whether Alvin Kamara's latest role is repeatable. Separately, a material efficiency change or a different market-proxy/production-model gap would require a new FairPlay read.
