Are you going to update the application so that it uses this year's rankings?

jayjzheng commented 9 years ago

yup, that's the plan. gonna need to get in touch with boris chen.

I'm curious how you get the json data from FantasyPros. I didn't see any way of exporting their data in json format. Did you construct it yourself? This helped me a ton during my draft last year. Thanks!

I have a backend that serves the JSON content. I think it has functionality to import excel or csv. I don't get data directly from FantasyPros. I get it from Boris Chen who had it in a google spreadsheet.

This past season i used your tool and fantasyfootballcalculator.com's ADP rankings to draft. I used them in 3 leagues (2 14 team leagues and a 10 team league). I won a 14 team league however I picked up ODB which had a lot to do with it, but i also dominated (1st all year, most points/gm, most total points etc.). I went to the championship in the 10 teamer with little lineup tinkering; few waiver adds/trades. In the other 14 teamer I started poorly and began dropping and trading players by wk 5. I later realized the players i lost performed well later in the season. I might have gone further in to the playoffs if I hadn't made those moves.

All in all, pretty successful year using your tool and I hope to use it again. I found that with each draft I did I was using ffcalc less and your tool more. By the 3rd draft I was using your tool exclusively.
