The frozen manifest records upstream references, SHA-256 hashes, record counts, exclusions, and the projection method. The directory README documents regeneration and validation.
Projection method
Projections are estimates, not results. The baseline uses 2025 actual regular-season production. A 2026 rookie without an NFL sample uses a 2025 rookie peer median by position and draft-capital bucket; another no-sample player uses a position baseline adjusted for current roster status. Each fallback records its basis and peer-sample size rather than inventing a 2026 performance.
- Projection inputs and fallback reasons remain auditable.
- Parallel tier, serial number, and eligibility never increase a player's projection or fantasy score.
- A projection is never labeled as a completed or live 2026 result.
Card presentation
Player and team names and team-color accents identify roster records. The card system uses one original, abstract, initials-only treatment for every player.
- No player photograph, headshot, facial or body likeness, signature, or voice.
- No uniform, jersey design, league logo, team logo, or copied official mark.
- No team-specific layout or logo-shaped color treatment.
Rights and affiliation
RipLeague is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by any league, team, player, players association, or data provider. The absence of photos and logos is a product boundary, not a claim that names, team references, colors, or sports data require no rights review.
Any public or commercial release still requires documented source terms, permitted use, territory, attribution, update rights, and applicable legal review. Missing or revoked rights metadata must fail closed.
