Hey Mike, we talk about #'s 1 and 2. I am generally weary of pulling projections/stats that they don't make available on the website (e.g., punter / IDP). But, I'll definitely look into the draft sharks while we are mulling over the other two items; I was not aware of them so thank you for pointing us to the site. Thanks for bringing all of them to our attention!
Hey Andrew, ESPN readily makes IDP and Punter projections available on the website. All you need is a league ID that includes those positions. This 2023 league ID I made includes all of them: 232954200.
Also, FantasySharks has Punter projections here: https://www.fantasysharks.com/apps/bert/forecasts/projections.php?Position=15&Segment=650
These should all be easy enough to scrape.
Did you get around to seeing if you could integrate these for 2024?
We did not. Let me talk to the other developers early next week and circle back.
Ok, and one more question here. I know that in your app you have a repository of historic projections data. I was wondering if this is included anywhere in this package? I would love to run my own analysis of historical accuracy of various projections sources. Is it possible to create a load_historic_projections()
function where we can specify positions, sources, and years and get weekly and season-long projections from past years?
I also just saw that from that newly opened issue that there’s still Yahoo support in this package? In the readme, Yahoo has disappeared from projections sources, and it has also not returned any data for me for quite some time.
Hi guys,
Just wondering if you could add the following:
