Marcus Mariota's week 4 4 attempts: what the latest row shows
Marcus Mariota is a 33-year-old quarterback in FairPlay's bench tier at rank #383, with a value of 703. For Washington against Indianapolis, Week 4 4 attempts fell from the prior usable row. The decision is whether that workload supports the current dynasty value. Week 2: 16 attempts, 111 passing yards, 1 carry, 45% snaps, and 6.9 yards per attempt. Week 3: 31 attempts, 183 passing yards, 5 carries, 100% snaps, and 5.9 yards per attempt. Week 4: 4 attempts, 46 passing yards, 1 carry, 16% snaps, and 11.5 yards per attempt. The roster snapshot lists Active, which is an administrative status and not a promise of future volume.

FairPlay's steady market proxy (72) is above its mixed production input (65). This is a FairPlay input comparison, not a verified external ADP or market price. roster status is near the model ceiling; draft capital is the next strongest input. opportunity is low, which keeps the recommendation conditional.

Roster-specific plan
late-career quarterback with falling usage
The same player can require a different decision depending on your competitive window and the liquidity of the return.
Contending roster
Win-now approach
A contender should keep or acquire Marcus Mariota only when the available usage does not yet prove a weekly lineup edge and the roster still retains enough playable Superflex access. Do not pay the market-proxy premium without accepting the production gap.
Rebuilding roster
Long-term approach
A rebuilder should shop Marcus Mariota 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.
Negotiation edge
Best market move
FairPlay values Marcus Mariota at 703. FairPlay's market proxy sits ahead of its production input by 7 points. Treat that as a model comparison, not a verified ADP or trade price.
