These are just a numerical representation of past performances. Of course, the buttered side of the bread always falls on the floor. With this in mind, the injury reports did not load. So the rankings (exclude players that are hurt for future purposes) include players that are injured. Obviously this does not affect anything considered… Continue reading Murphy’s Law

Effect of Defense from a player’s average for Week 15 There is obvious certain teams that have an effect on a player’s fantasy performance, or this statistic wouldn’t have such a trend. But the effect has a great deal of variation that the predictive value for a single game has limited utility. Plus the percentage… Continue reading Defensive handicap for week 15

How well did we quantify a player’s contribution to a fantasy team. Look for yourself. Monte Win Pct is the Winning Pct that we calculated for a player. We averaged it out here, bc the Distributive Law can be applied for our model. Hypothesis was if we took the differences of the winpct between the… Continue reading Week 15, playoffs for owners

Can we quantify the value of a player to a fantasy team? In a 13 game fantasy season, a win is 0.077 to their winning percentage. The hypthothesis of this analysis is that when the player in this list plays, if he is 0.077 higher than a player ranked 14 places later, he will average… Continue reading After week 15, can we tell how much more valuable a player was over an other?

Who should’ve been drafted this year We know from the last post who played the most, and therefore should be ideal candidates for starting spots. But unlike the previous simulation, we know that there aren’t such a large universe of players, to do game simulations. Our universe in my league is limited by how many… Continue reading After week 15, the flex, the DMZ between starter and backup

How important is health to player’s value at draft time? This is extremely difficult to quantify. It largely depends on the cost of subsequently drafting his backup/handcuff versus having to draft a open starting spot. Can you wait after all your starting positions are filled, is that position so critical that you have to fill… Continue reading After week 15, who contributed for the entire season for their fantasy team’s success?

Which player played a important role in his team’s success? In fantasy football, this is answered by asking what would happen to a team, if they didn’t have that player vs having that player. But as things go, there are trade-offs. Here we will assess the value of that player, when he plays. If they… Continue reading After week 15, who made the most of their opportunities when they played?

Over-supply vs. Shortage. What can you drop down to, to get a scarcer resource. My league starts 1QB, 2RB, 2WR, 1TE,1 Flex(RB,WR or TE), 1K, and 1DST. For each starting slot, we are allowed to roster a backup. My league has 14 teams this year, so that’s 14 starting QB for instance. Below is data,… Continue reading Position Shortage Report for Week 15
