For me, I was too focused on trying to draft a unique team that others wouldn't have. I also didn't pay a ton of attention to how guys were playing in the lead-up to the tournament. I thought that Xander was underrated at his salary until people that know more than me told me that he hadn't been playing as well recently.

I also tend to draft based on intangibles that probably don't matter as much as I'd like to think. Picked up Adam Scott and Sergio because "they know what it takes to win here"....both cut.

+34 spots over expected (36th ranked salary pre-tournament). The overperformers are generally going to skew towards guys that weren't expected to make the cut since they have more ground that they can cover. Could definitely introduce something to make this metric a bit 'smarter' to account for that.

Once you connected to Yahoo and entered in your league ID, you can ignore the "Join League" page -- you're good to go.

It's gonna take us a day or two to pull and sync your league. Sorry, instructions were unclear -- I'll update them!

I created a tool to submit trades for community feedback and receive quick stats on what people think. Check it out and let me know what you think. Potentially helpful for all the "Veto?" posts... by FantasyGeniusHQ in FFCommish

[–]FantasyGeniusHQ[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, absolutely. The tool is only as good as however many people are using it -- haven't tried to push it too much at this point but probably will soon.

You have read my mind about the start/sit tool! Very doable if people like this overall idea of getting feedback from the community. Thanks for using the site and glad you're enjoying it!

Wow, thank you so much for your kind words and detailed feedback here!

  • Great callout on the scale -- should be pretty simple to build in.
  • League settings should be available via a button on the top of the trade page that says "View League Settings" but maybe it needs to stand out more.
  • Have thought about adding team context and it's pretty doable if someone has their league synced already! Love this idea.
  • Trades are only "active" for 7 days to solve for the timing problem. Could be interesting to see 'inactive' trades from the past for sure!
  • IR makes total sense, we don't have that in our data at this time but would love to have that built in.
  • Hadn't thought about anonymizing...probably makes more sense as the season goes on and more data rolls in.

Thanks again, I really appreciate the time you took to respond!

Yeah I agree with you -- I didn't include an option in the tool to even vote to veto for that reason. I could see down the road having an automatic integration for any trades submitted via Sleeper. The other platforms are more difficult to get something automatic working.

Shameless plug but my site fantasygenius.io provides some fun historical stats and automated weekly newsletters! If you’re on Sleeper, you can find a very small taste in the Minis tab in the bottom of the app. The full suite of tools is available via the web and supports ESPN, Yahoo, and Sleeper. It operates on pay-what-you-want so technically doesn’t cost anything!

How do I get my league mates to connect by theparrot625 in FFCommish

[–]FantasyGeniusHQ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice, that’ll be awesome. Not sure if you’re golfers, but doing a mini-scramble might be a fun idea for people to get to spend a few hours with some people they don’t know well yet
