"Down-Set-Hike Fantasy Football Trade Analyzer"™

Welcome to the Ready-Set-Go Fantasy Sports Trade Analyzer! This tool is designed to answer trade questions from your fantasy rosters, instantly providing you with a recommendation of whether it is beneficial to your team to make any trade you’ve been offered.

What Does it Do?
The Trade Analyzer is designed to take your specific roster, and Analyze whether a trade makes your team’s starting line-up better more weeks than not.

How to Navigate it.
As you’ll see, the roster you’ve saved in the Line-up Analyzer is already imported on the page to the left. On the right, you’ll see pull down boxes with all of your players names in them. To get the Trade Analyzer recommendation on a specific trade, simply use the pull down boxes to change what your roster would look like if you made the trade.

For example:
Someone has offered you RB Chris Brown and WR Ashley Lelie in return for WR Randy Moss.

Step 1: Go to the box where Randy Moss’s name is and by using the pull down arrow, change it to Ashley Lelie. Then go to a blank box in your RB section and use the pull down arrow to bring up Chris Brown.

Note: If you have no blank boxes at a position, use the box of the player you feel is the weakest at the position on your roster.

Step 2: Scroll down to the bottom of the page and on the left you’ll see a pull down box with the ability to set the final week of your league’s season. Choose the final week of your season (most leagues go to week 16, but some to week 17, and some even finish up their seasons before week 16, so we added this option).

Step 3: To the right of the Final Week of Season box there is a button that says “Submit Roster.” Click on that and wait a moment while the Trade Analyzer goes through its computations. When it is finished, it will pull up a screen with its recommendation of either making the trade, or not making the trade.

It’s that simple.

If you want the Trade Analyzer to check out more trade offers, simply click on the “Back” button to the prior page, and once there, click “Refresh.” The system will automatically take out the last trade and be ready for you to input a new one.

How Does It Work?
The Trade Analyzer is designed to take every remaining week of your fantasy season, and project the performance of every player on your roster for each of those weeks. This means it takes into account the matchups for every player on your roster for both the team you currently have and the team you would have if you made the trade. The factors involved in analyzing the trade are too numerous to mention.

However, we will say that included in the projections are the effects of any injuries to those player’s NFL teams and injuries to any of those player’s opponents. This also includes projected return weeks of injured players, and performance of the backups filling in. When the Trade Analyzer has finished all of its projections and computations, it assembles the best possible starting line-up each week for the rest of the season from both rosters and determines which of the two (current or post trade) puts together the stronger starting line-up more weeks than the other. As stated earlier, if the trade will have no projected impact on your starting line-up the rest of the season, the Trade Analyzer will determine if it makes the quality of your depth better or worse.

League Type Information
At FFS, our job is to give you the best real-time, personalized expert advice on players to draft, value trades and weekly starters. Weightings and value factors are applied to address 99 percent of all league scoring systems.

After careful study of hundreds of specific league scoring systems, we found that less than 1% (i.e. TD only) of the leagues fall into a category of variance. The difference it makes in a player’s final fantasy ranking by the end of the season, for practical purposes, is non-existent.

Top players at each position are still going to be the top players, while the mediocre players are still going to be mediocre, whether your scoring system gives them 1 point for every 10 yards, 20 yards, or uses decimal point scoring. Even by giving RBs and WRs 1/2 to 1 point per reception, the final analysis looks very much the same.

No matter what type of league you’re in, you can count on FFS' instant expert analysis, available 24/7...That’s the winning edge!
