deleddaj 0 Posted September 7, 2015 It would seem that with subtle manipulation, Draft Buddy can be a tool to gain minor advantages in daily leagues when used throughout the year. This will require some above average skill using Projection Pal. Questions for the group: (1) Anyone considering using Draft Buddy for daily games? (2) Has anyone optimized their Projection Pal use for weekly stat projections out of FF Today and/or CBS? Thanks in advance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike MacGregor 20 Posted September 7, 2015 Very interesting! I'm looking at ideas to keep Buddy updated with rankings and rosters so I can easily identify waiver pick ups. Will give this some thought. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deleddaj 0 Posted September 7, 2015 Please do. I'd love your insight. Transparently, I've been manually manipulating Draft Buddy for the past 10 years to do exactly as you have suggested. I'm no good with macro programming, but I've got all the manual steps down to guide your programming, if you'd like to chat. In the meantime, something specific. For a daily, on the "Rules" tab, what do you think we should set "# teams in league" to? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike MacGregor 20 Posted September 8, 2015 I don't really know what number of teams should be set to. I think I would stick to the offense cheatsheet to help construct my lineups, but you'd want to compare to price to see who holds the best value ... or are you running Buddy as an auction with projection auction values and then compare to the actual price per the DFS sites?

deleddaj 0 Posted September 8, 2015 I started off trying the auction settings, but soon realized drafting a lineup for DFS and a traditional auction are 2 very different methodologies. I think the best I can do is set the team # to 1, and then really concentrate on getting the tiering right on the options tab so that the cheatsheets will tightly group like performing players that I can then cross reference their DFS price tag to find the value plays. The overall rank then perhaps gives an indication of what position(s) to spend top dollar on first. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike MacGregor 20 Posted September 8, 2015 Makes sense. Here is something you could think about that just came to me... whatever DFS site you are on, copy the dollar values into an Excel sheet and format it exactly the same as the ADP tab, but put the dollar value in the ADP column. Then when you Compile, it will copy the dollar value next to the player rankings on the cheatsheets. You may need to format the numbers so it looks right.
