MODEL ANALYSIS

Our model consists of stats obtained from over 1000 active and former players playing the following positions: QB, RB, FB, WR, and TE. The stats gathered per player/per year includes:

  • Total TD
  • Rushing TD
  • Passing TD
  • Receiving TD
  • Team Stats
  • Rushes
  • Receptions
  • Age
  • Weight/Height
  • NFL Experience
  • Draft Position
  • Depth Chart Pos.
  • Game TDs
  • Injuries
  • Rushing Yards
  • Receiving Yards
  • Passing Yards
  • Games Started
  • Games Off Bench
  • Top TDs Within Previous 3 Years
  • Top Yards Within Previous 3 Years
  • Other Starter Player Stats

What makes FFPredictions standout is our 'teammate model'. By looking at player depth chart placement, we can tell for instance, how the #1 WR affects the #1 QB. In fact, we look at the relationships between and among all the following positions.

  • #1 QB
  • #1 RB
  • #1 WR
  • #2 WR
  • #1 TE

Modeling all skill position players is important because a coach chooses to call a play for a particular player based on the alternatives he has. A great #1 WR improves a #1 QB, but may take catches away from a #2 WR.


Example:

By modeling what players typically do when certain skill levels players surround them, we can answer interesting questions such as "What is the expected number of touchdowns for a QB who scored 24 touchdowns last year? This new QB's team just signed a stud WR that scored a spectacular 16 touchdowns last year. The existing #2 WR is expected to score 6 TDs and the existing TE is expected to score 4 TDs. Using our model, the QB is expected to score 33 TDs ! (That fantasy trophy is going to look great on your desk!)
