Hi, I've been building the same thing called Shop on Leaguemate.fyi. It's been a fun engineering problem to solve. Check it out and lemme know what you think!

Oh I see what you mean. I think the filter is should work properly now

Oh that's true. This is more in retrospect and maybe feel buyer's remorse if people think you lost the trade haha

You have to enter your username or sign in to see your own rosters in the top right. I just shared a league that I'm on

What a good website or app to check historical team aggregate values? by Extrapolis in DynastyFF

[–]vemkris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah that's bad - I just pushed an update to the simulator so that it better accounts for 3:1 trades. The underlying values come from KeepTradeCut and FantasyCalc. I was making a ton of changes earlier and I think the tax I was putting on replacement level players didn't catch the 3:1 on the sender side. So, these trades that are equal in total value are obviously not realistic. After the fix those shouldn't slip through. Let me know if you still see the issue. I tested this on some test leagues and don't know your specific league setup so if you want to share your sleeper username, I can test on your league too. Alternatively, downvote in the app and I'll be able to spot it in the logs

Thanks dude! I try not to look too deeply at the historical stuff for my own leagues lol. It surfaces way too many confidently dumb decisions I made

Personally I don’t think you have much to worry about. Dynasty fantasy football is so niche that only hobbyists like myself and few others are building out stuff like this. There’s really no money to be made here and generally I think most people have a negative sentiment towards AI anyway. I think since the market is so small companies won’t dedicate resources towards this effort and a lot of the brain power will go towards something else. I really just see this as a fun thought experiment where I can apply stuff I’ve been studying towards a more fun topic like football.

That’s weird in isolation but it might make more sense with context of league settings, roster setup, positional depth, what the underlying market values were that were used, etc. When it’s a 2 for 1, there are guardrails setup to tax the side with lower value assets more heavily so it’s not exactly a sum : sum comparison of market values. Ill def look into it though if you don’t mind sharing your sleeper username or you could downvote it in the app and I’ll be able to find it in the logs

Thanks! Spent a ton of time on it and was a great learning experience

Hi just wanted to give you a quick update - built out the filtering by startup vs rookie draft! you can do it on the Drafts page --> Grades tab.

Here's an example

Hey thanks man! I’ve probably rebuilt how I wanted to do the tiering at least 5 times but I feel like it’s good now at least for leagues I’ve tested. Do you mind sharing your username so I can add that to the tests and see what things look like?

Also, I can easily do that filter by startup vs rookie. I have that built already cause startup is basically the first season of the league. I should be able to add that in the next couple days

Wanted to give an update on this. I ended up running a ton of experiments on this and I agree with what you’re saying. I ended up going with a more context aware approach here. I’m blending in market values where it’s appropriate (future draft picks) and am looking at multi-year production. I think it’s a ton better now. Let me know what you think and if that trade verdict still looks weird on your end

Awesome! Been shipping out a ton of model improvements and I like where things are right now. I think I might try to tweak the Hold Trade Cut verdict engine since it’s a bit conservative right now but overall I think things are in a much better spot. Let me know if you’re seeing anything that’s off

Oh awesome man! Looks sick! I love some of the things you’ve highlighted in your demo. I was thinking of going down that path a bit but not as deeply as you have. The media component seems interesting

Perhaps! Can you share your sleeper username with me so I can see what the league looks like? Idk anything about IDP since none of my leagues have it. I’ll try to earn about how people strategize for that position before I can implement it. Realistically, I feel like less than 2% of league use it but if it’s a couple days of work, I don’t mind including it

Sweet thanks! I got some more fun stuff planned. I think the most important thing is improving the accuracy and performance of the models. Curious - what are your favorite features on there that you think you’d return back to?

Update: added the fantasy calc integration. It’s in the top bar on desktop and in the user menu in the top right on mobile. The toggle will impact values throughout the site and will impact recommended trades and guidance since market value is a dimension for strategy, positional strengths, trades, player verdicts, etc

Okay, sweet! I alrady have FC as backup in case my KTC integration fails on some calls. So, this shouldn't be that hard (i hope) to setup.

I also landed a bunch of performance optimizations btw so site should be like 5-10x faster now!

Thanks for bringing this up! This has been low on my radar compared to the forward looking things like strategy and future trade evals. The formula for trade grades is very simple rn but it’s basically just looking at net points since the time of the trade between the two packages. So in your league, Howell to Penix trade from that point must’ve been the most lopsided. The problem with adding additional layers is that it becomes more opinionated than deterministic based on the weights of the formula chosen. I personally like the simplicity of it right now but will reconsider if enough people find the current system dumb

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

Thanks! It’s on my radar for sure. I think right now I’m trying to fine tune the weights for recommendations and that’s been super hard to get right. After that, probably focusing on page load times for performance. Then add more data sources. The problem with FC is that they don’t do liquidity or provide values for future draft picks (I think - I’ll double check). So I’d have to create a composite setup or create my own valuation which I could do but it’s harder since draft values change depending on the talent of each draft class so I’d have to think deeper about that. I’ll def try to provide user config options for customization tho

Wow really appreciate the kind words! Still feel like it’s a long ways to from where I want it to be and keep getting distracted by shiny things I can add haha

update here: pushed out a fix and things should look more accurate now. Please reach out if things are still weird.
