FantasyEconometrics

About

Fantasy Econometrics is a draft and roster tool that ranks players by what a pick is actually worth — not by how many points he scores. Those are different questions, and the difference decides drafts. A kicker scores about as many points as a mid-tier receiver. He is worth nothing, because half the league's kickers sit on waivers at all times and you can start the best one every week for free. A ranking sorted by points puts him in round five. This one puts him where he belongs. CONNECT YOUR LEAGUE Paste your Sleeper league link and the app follows that draft — draft order, teams, picks and mock drafts all come from it. A draft-room link works too, and so does the bare league id. Sleeper needs no sign-in; its API is public and read-only. You can optionally sign in to ESPN to read your own private league. WHAT IT DOES • Ranks every player by value over what you could stream off waivers all season, rather than over the last starter in the league • Tiers within position, so you can see which position is two players from a cliff and which has ten left • Tracks a live draft pick by pick on a full rounds-by-teams board • Runs mock drafts against simulated opponents and saves the finished board to your photos • Shows injury designations, depth-chart moves and league-wide add/drop counts as they change, each with the date it changed • Explains every number, including how small some of them are BUILT ON MEASUREMENT, NOT OPINION Every constant in the engine was estimated from historical data and is stated with its uncertainty. Where an effect could not be separated from zero, the app does not claim it. The schedule screen tells you a whole season of strength of schedule is worth about one point — because that is what seven seasons of data say, and rounding it up would be a lie. Works without an account. No ads. No tracking. No in-app purchases. Nothing is collected — the app has no server.
