Every year I see different people attempting to make a statistical model of some kind. In 2018 there were 8 of us providing D/ST rankings... and nearly all of us had a different approach. What I'm writing here is a 2- or

Why prepare? First of all, I don't generally recommend it any earlier than week 12 or 13 (depends on your league's habits). But the main reason for planning D/STs specifically is the need for security. D/ST projections f

The point of this post is that I've put a lot of thought into making stats more understandable for fantasy. The focus here is correlation coefficients (CCs), which I often use to describe both positional predictability a

Early motivations A lot of my interest in starting analytics came out of Reddit discussions. It seemed like there were a lot of theories floating around, but there was no data to support them. Here's an example referenci

Most people are probably holding QBs, not streaming. However, streaming QBs can definitely be a viable fantasy strategy if: your league is small and the QB you drafted needs some filler weeks. your league-mates draft the

With D/STs, you should be prepared to stream in most leagues. D/ST is the most obvious fantasy position to stream, since the score is mostly dependent on the opposing offense—thereby affecting each D/ST’s value every new

There is some narrative that D/ST scoring is problematic, which has validity. Scores can go negative, making it the only position you might consider sitting. Scores decrease during the game, causing frustration. And scor

D/ST is where I started, due to a slew of bad picks from other rankings. I thought rankers were assuming that certain statistics were predictive, without testing them. I was especially frustrated about the inability to i

The flex position models are meant to improve upon making lineup decisions according to “fantasy-points-allowed to this position by the opposing defense”. Instead of that weakly-predictive number, these models are more c

Good kicker projections can make it viable to stream the kicker position. And it can actually be easier to stream than D/ST, because your league-mates are probably not rostering 2 kickers (whereas rostering 2 D/STs can b

Subvertadown models are built from a special version of multivariate statistical regression, with cross-validation. That means we don’t choose our favorite defensive stats from our own idea of what should be useful. Inst

Kickers are notoriously difficult to predict, and many consider it hopeless to improve. This—combined with a perceived “lack of game action”-- has led some to advocate deleting the position. The Subvertadown view is some

Prevailing opinions about QB: Wait to draft a later-round QB, because other positions have higher replacement value early in the draft. Verdict: Generally true. Rushing QBs provide a safer floor because QB rushing yards

D/ST is one of the most predictable fantasy positions. However, that only means that other positions are less predictable. The randomness in fantasy can be overwhelming, and it’s not much different for D/ST. So here's ho

There are not usually major flaws in the top QB rankings, but I did sense the opposing defense can get overlooked. In battles between top QBs and top defenses, rankers often keep “usually safe” QB choices at the top. Is

It could be anyone interested in gaining some edge… but from experience, the most interest comes from people who appreciate knowing the scientific methodology and trusting a data-driven approach. My followers report high

Although I heavily guide the process, I don't choose what ends up into each model. Subvertadown is about a framework for developing the predictive models. For this, I test hundreds of variables for significance, and cros

Control: QBs give the most amount of control over their own point production, even though matchups matter more than most people think. Attitude: Don't trick yourself into thinking that QBs are that much more predictable

I originally did not expect the time intensity involved with creating and maintaining models. At first, I thought some clever tricks could find patterns and quickly “crack the code”. Unfortunately, I learned there are hu

Subvertadown is in its 5th year, and the project has always been under continuous evolution. The project became serious after realizing a first year of dabbling was enough to get above-average D/ST accuracy. For the seco

One of the deviously fun parts of developing predictive models is the feeling of defying what they said about stats in school: Correlation is not causation. With predictive modeling, we turn the idea on its head and bend

Kickers are one of the least predictable fantasy positions—with around the same level of predictability as individual WR1s. Control: Remember, kickers don't make their own destiny by just "being awesome". Their team is l
