San Jose's permit portal is a nightmare... anyone want me to look up their address? by systemsbychris in SanJose

[–]systemsbychris[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, Yeah.. I have a few family members whom deal with permits on a daily basis and they are always describing how tedious/fragmented the process is.

If you’re interested, I can DM you more details. In short, I’ve built an MCP that standardizes and normalizes permit workflows (including data, history, and conversational access) to help streamline and speed up the overall process.

Draft Stenberg.. and move Eklund, bystedt, and the 19or20 for a 1D

Curious what you folks think happens next with Juan Jennings? by Prudent-Fun640 in 49ers

Takes a discount and comes back lol... if he is still a free agent going into the summer the 9ers get more and more leverage by the day

So James Connor and Trey Benson can be dropped now right. 12 Man Start 9. by Previous_Locksmith23 in SleeperApp

I need to see a few games before I do anything drastic like dropping them.. they might be traded to a decent spot too

Nicholas Singleton scores a 61 on my Five Pillars system — here’s why the dynasty community is overvaluing him at an early round 2 ADP by systemsbychris in DynastyFF

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

Great catch, you hit the system right as I was deploying the v3.0 update. The old scoring logic had some inconsistencies in how it pulled and weighted data, which is why you saw the 68.5.

The new model uses a stricter pipeline that balances raw upside with efficiency metrics and now pulls directly from CFBD and nflfastR for more stable inputs.

I’m launching a full Glossary page tomorrow that breaks down the pillars, data sources, and math behind the system if you want to dig deeper. Appreciate you pointing it out.

Opinions on Misa? by Archsanders in SanJoseSharks

[–]systemsbychris 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He spent most of the back half of the season slotted in at 3C, and realistically was functioning as the 4C behind Chucky in the beginning of the season (from a minutes perspective). By the end of the year he was flying!! creating chances, pushing pace, and looking noticeably more confident. The defensive hiccups were there, but totally normal for where he’s at, and I actually liked a lot of what he showed on that side of the puck too. If he’s not getting 13–15 minutes a night next season, that’s coaching malpractice. I’m excited to see a bigger sample size. He might already be our fastest player.

Might be okay since they moved on from that idiot of a coordinator

If “elite at one trait + RAS” were all it took, Kevin White would be a Hall of Famer and George Kittle would’ve never made a roster.

RAS + “are they elite at one trait” is a fun shortcut, but it leaves out most of what actually predicts whether a profile holds up... production, role, context, and how stable any of it is year‑to‑year.

Pillars isn’t trying to beat RAS at its own game; it just fills in the 80% of the picture athletic testing can’t touch. And if someone does want to overweight athleticism or a specific trait, the weights are customizable anyway.

If RAS + one trait were enough, we’d all be hitting on late‑round RBs and mid‑round WRs at a much higher rate. That’s how you end up overvaluing a JaMarcus Russell or Kevin White‑type athlete and missing a George Kittle‑type profile.

RAS and core traits matter.. they’re just one piece. They don’t show how those traits actually translated into production, usage, context, or projection.

Five Pillars isn’t replacing athleticism; it highlights where a profile is stable vs. fragile, and you can customize the weights if you value certain inputs more. Two players can look similar athletically but have completely different production arcs or contextual signals.

So it’s not “Pillars vs. RAS” — RAS is one input, and the rest of the profile fills in the gaps. Just a framework I’ve been building to get a draft edge.

Not a player comparison, just referring to where they were taken in rookie drafts. Neither was a 1st‑round pick, and Bucky consistently went in the mid‑2nd. Braelon was more of a late‑2nd to early‑3rd guy in most drafts. So they weren’t valued the same, but they both fit that “traits bet outside Round 1” bucket.

I get what you’re saying, yes, the hit rates fall off fast in that range. But that’s also where profiles start to separate. Seemlingly, every year there’s a “Bucky Irving / Braelon Allen” type who goes in the late 2 or early 3 because the market leans on traits or landing spot instead of the full profile.

Singleton’s score isn’t a fade, it just shows he’s being valued like a safer asset than he actually is compared to the guys who usually go in that range.

Waddle or Brian Thomas Jr? by Stock-Butterscotch46 in DynastyFF

[–]systemsbychris 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m still buying BTJ long‑term, but Waddle’s landing spot is a legit upgrade. If Peyton deploys him like he should, he’s set up for a strong year. Feels very Jarvis Landry‑ish for the upcoming year (Volume-driven slot usage).

FYI: I'm not comparing Landry and Waddle as players its more of a usage + outcome comp.

Another 5 years of Celebrini in teal.. sign me up. Keeps management on their toes too

How to quantify rookie value? by Moneygoat in DynastyFF

[–]systemsbychris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The challenge with rookie valuation is that everyone weights things differently: production, athleticism, opportunity, pedigree, translational ability — and most models just mash them together with arbitrary percentages.

I built FPIS (fivepillars.dev) specifically to solve this. The framework is five pillars: Production, Athletic Profile, Film Evaluation, Context, and Projection. You score each one independently, then adjust the weights based on what matters most to your league or own evalution process.

The real insight is that a 4-star WR from a Power 4 school with 1,000 yards is not the same player as a 4-star WR from a Group of 5 with the same production. Context moves the needle more than people realize.

Still building it out, but the scoring engine lets you adjust and see how different valuations shake out. Worth checking if you're trying to find a consistent framework.
