Best Fantasy Football Draft Tools

Average Auction Value (AAV)

Average Auction Value is one of the most helpful tools you’ll find out there for your auction fantasy football leagues. We have been running auction mock drafts and compiling data. With it, you can find out exactly what prices players are going for in your auction leagues.

Consistency Score

The Consistency Score is really the best and easiest consistency metric available to the fantasy football manager. In a nutshell, the higher the CS, the more often that player puts up high-level, usable, fantasy football scores. Read all about exactly what goes into fantasy football CS, here.

D-PAC

Defensive Points Allowed Consistency, or D-PAC is similar to our Consistency Score in every way. However, this one is from a matchup perspective. Simply put, the higher the D-PAC score, the more often those teams allow high-level, usable, fantasy points to that position. Use D-PAC to find favorable matchups to target, especially when streaming positions, or determining your flex play. This is one you’ll want to bookmark during the season as a way to help set your fantasy football lineups each week.

IDP Tool

Our newest fantasy football tool and the first one featuring IDP fantasy players. This tool is similar to our Consistency Score but offers a deep look into IDP players. Whether you’re brand new to IDP leagues or a seasoned veteran, this tool is fantastic for finding those Flex plays in your IDP leagues. Additionally, you can use this to find out who the most consistent IDP players on from week to week.

Median Points per Game

Looking at a player’s Mean Points Per Game (PPG) provides a single number that misrepresents that player’s “typical” game. Using Median Points Per Game is more robust to outliers by definition. Additionally, when combined with upper and lower quartiles, it better represents what is “typical”.

This is a searchable and sortable data set of Median and Mean Points Per Game as well as Total Points, Games Over Average, and Upper and Lower Quartiles.

Player Analysis Tool

This is a one-stop shop to see a player’s stats and all of his relative advanced metrics in one place. You can see their weekly scores, break down their scores by opponent, total in-season stats, and more. There are also advanced tools for analyzing quarterbacks, running backs, and wide receivers with the metrics that matter the most for each position. All in all, this is one tool that you can really use to analyze individual players.
