Using a Mixed-Model to Find the Best Two Quarterback Combinations

RotoDoc holds a Ph.D. in mathematics and tackles sports data to give you a competitive edge in your fantasy games. Earlier this off season I created a prediction model to project quarterback scoring over the first five weeks. However, this model simply predicted aggregate score over the five games, but did not make projections on a game-by-game basis. I’ve now taken things a step further to…...

Daily Fantasy NASCAR: Bristol Recap, New Fantasy NASCAR App

RotoDoc holds a Ph.D. in mathematics and tackles sports data to give you a competitive edge in your fantasy games. Saturday night’s race at Bristol Motor Speedway, won by Joey Logano, was comparatively uneventful compared to past years. This made for a pretty solid week for the model projections, as well as my picks. The week was especially good for my GPP results, as I placed one lineup in…...

Daily Fantasy NASCAR: Bristol Picks and Projections

RotoDoc holds a Ph.D. in mathematics and tackles sports data to give you a competitive edge in your fantasy games. With practice and qualifying in the books, it’s time to look forward to tonight’s Irwin Tools Night Race at Bristol. The guys I said to look for early in the week actually ended up struggling in qualifying, so it will be interesting to see if they make…...

Daily Fantasy NASCAR: Michigan

RotoDoc holds a Ph.D. in mathematics and tackles sports data to give you a competitive edge in your fantasy games. Last week I cautioned about the unpredictability of races at Watkins Glen International. Well, the race didn’t disappoint. A sequence of cautions and some pit strategy forced a fuel mileage race that was won by Joey Logano. The relief doesn’t quite end this week, as Michigan…...

Fantasy NASCAR Projections: Watkins Glen Edition

RotoDoc holds a Ph.D. in mathematics and tackles sports data to give you a competitive edge in your fantasy games. Earlier this week I talked about how unpredictable road course racing can be in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series. Due to the inherent nature of road course racing producing somewhat unpredictable results, the fantasy NASCAR projections at the end of this article show the average projected finish for…...

Daily Fantasy NASCAR: Kenseth, Variance Win at Pocono and Watkins Glen Preview

RotoDoc holds a Ph.D. in mathematics and tackles sports data to give you a competitive edge in your fantasy games. My projection model for Daily Fantasy NASCAR did not fare so well last week for the Windows 10 400 at Pocono Raceway. Matt Kenseth came out victorious in one of the most unusual races in recent memory at the Tricky Triangle. Seven caution flags flew before half the race was even…...

Using Analytics to Draft the Best QB

RotoDoc holds a Ph.D. in mathematics and tackles sports data to give you a competitive edge in your fantasy games. If you haven’t noticed by now, I like creating projections to predict fantasy football performance. Whether it be daily fantasy projections, early-season positional projections (as this series is), or any other kind of projections, I think the most value you get out of projections is finding…...

I’m Still Taking Le’Veon Bell First Overall (But Understand if You Won’t)

By now I’m sure you’ve heard that Le’Veon Bell has been suspended for three games for his marijuana possession and DUI arrest just prior to the start of the 2014 NFL season. With Bell the consensus top overall draft pick in almost any format, missing three games of a 16 game season is no small matter. However, at first glance and running through some idealized exercises, if…...

Additional Insights from 2015 Early Season Running Back Projections

RotoDoc holds a Ph.D. in mathematics and tackles sports data to give you a competitive edge in your fantasy games. Last week, I created running back projections to project statistical totals for the first five weeks of the season. The goal of that exercise was to find discrepancies between my projections and current ADP in MFL10s. However, beyond simply ADP, I think there are a few other…...

RotoDoc holds a Ph.D. in mathematics and tackles sports data to give you a competitive edge in your fantasy games. One of the most useful things you can do to prepare for any kind of draft is to create your own projections. It can be as simple as aggregate projections from a few of your favorite fantasy websites. Or, if you’ve got the time on your…...
