Looking for some quick feedback of the new fantasy football tools I'm working on
Added 2023-07-20 02:24:09 +0000 UTCHey everyone - I've taken this week off from work to re-build a lot of the fantasy football tools on Hashtag Football.
I've also been looking for a different data provider who is able to provide advanced stats like air yards, snaps, red zone attempts, interceptable passes, true pass rating etc. and I was wanting to get your feedback on how important you feel having advanced stats available is? (the advanced stats come as an add-on price point).
Below is an example of a new QB rankings page with the advanced metrics (which I'm in the middle of color coding):
How important do you feel having these advanced metrics are?

Good point! There's going to be an option to view them by both total and average, so you get to choose.

2023-08-04 12:04:29 +0000 UTCMy only frustration with a lot of these charts is that they show number totals, not season averages. A quarterback (or any position player) might fall to an injury for a few games and his numbers plummet relative to players who didn't miss games, and yet that QB might be leagues above other players in per game averages. Just looking for a true measure of talent/averages, versus a compilation of total statistics, which isn't as useful in fantasy as averages.

2023-07-21 09:26:30 +0000 UTCI think you’re onto something. The two different polls (Twitter vs Patreon) shows that people who are paying for it are expecting it more than those who aren’t. I’ll see how the rest of this poll plays out, but I think I’ll go down making it a Patreon/paywall feature.

2023-07-20 04:01:48 +0000 UTCI don't think you should give the advanced access away for free, I'm sure someone who is searching for them would love having them available in the formatting you have here. I like the layout as it is off to the side, just providing additional insight.

2023-07-20 03:18:07 +0000 UTCYeah, I'm kinda torn between the two ideas. Whenever I see a fantasy football website with advanced stats it's always behind a paywall. Whereas I'd lean towards making it available for the public. The additional fee isn't cheap, but I'm in a position given how much support this Patreon gets to try it out for a year.

2023-07-20 03:15:53 +0000 UTCIf there was more of a roto style or head to head cats like basketball and baseball I'd see value, but football is just points so not sure how much value I'd take from it. There is always stat nerds who will take that into account though.
