Personalized Fantasy Advice

For nearly a decade, FF4W has helped thousands of people select the right keepers, develop draft rankings, propose deceptively advantageous trades, identify underreported elite RB handcuffs, and so on. Unlike most fantasy sites, FF4W's advice stems not merely from opinions, but from statistically based facts. We play the probabilities because season after season, high-probability decisions give managers the best shot at winning.

As a result, our advice is highly specialized, built on thousands of hours of research and millions of cells of data points. We've never cared about claiming obvious QB1s will be QB1s. We care about proving why a WR8 should produce as a WR4+, or why an undraftable backup RB has a 25%+ chance of becoming a weekly RB2. Finding high-probability answers isn't rocket science. But it is labor intensive. And FF4W does the heavy lifting so you don't have to.

We remain committed to providing free and actionable insights in our daily fantasy columns, on our popular Fantasy-pedia page (a library of some of readers' favorite posts), and our newly launched Research page that houses our growing collection of data-driven findings that bolster or challenge conventional wisdoms. And of course we will continually aim to answer every question--easily over 50,000 since we launched in 2013--on the Facebook blog, over e-mail, and on Twitter.

And for those who are looking for more in-depth analytics and custom-curated advice, we're happy to now offer a new menu of personalized services. Over the years, readers have hired us to go the extra mile to help them win their leagues. We now have the resources to provide these services to the broader FF4W community.

And while no one can guarantee victory, we'll stake our reputation on improvement. We won't accept 50% of our fee until after the season. If you determine FF4W did not help you improve, keep that 50% and spend it on a nice gift for a loved one. We have never been after a quick buck. Our goal is to foster trust and demonstrate value throughout our fantasy community.

Real-time Fantasy Advice All Season Long (Texting) -- $30 per week for up to 20 weeks

You want a trusted fantasy expert on-call throughout the season. We'll give you a dedicated phone number to text us anytime during normal engagement hours (8:00am-10:00pm Eastern). Trying to figure out whether to drop a guy on IR? Looking to capitalize on a trade with a desperate opponent? Unsure how much FAAB to spend on a short-term starting RB? We're here to help, day or night.

DFS Strategy Session -- $50 for 30 minutes

If DFS were easy, everyone would win. Of course, on any given gameday, most people lose. But if you've used every DFS 50/50 lineup we've recommended over the years, you've made a nice profit. FF4W's founder has developed a successful approach to 50/50 and tournament competitions that increases the odds of finishing in the money. Each interactive, one-on-one strategy session focuses on any of these three areas, depending on your needs: best practices for assembling a lineup that maximizes upside (tournaments), best practices for assembling a lineup that maximizes high-probability value (50/50), and a detailed discussion of a tournament or 50/50 you plan to enter, so we can discuss some of the best players to use that week.

Because of the nature of DFS--particularly its high-stakes competitions--we will be particularly conscientious of your time and investment, and we will encourage you to bet conservatively until you've adopted an approach with which you feel comfortable.

Customized Top-150 Draft Rankings and Strategic Plan (Snake or Auction) -- $75

Your league's rules are atypical. Maybe 50-yard TDs earn bonus points. Maybe TE scoring is weighted more heavily. Send us your league's scoring rules, last year's round-by-round draft results, and any competitors' biases (for example, reaching early for hometown stars), and we'll assemble highly customized rankings reflecting your unique situation, as well as a detailed document walking through round-by-round draft recommendations. For auction drafts, we'll price the top 150 players (as well as some must-target $1 bargains) while highlighting best practices, such as never nominating a player you want until everyone else is out of funds.

Zoom/Phone Draft Strategy Session -- $20 per 15 minutes

Last year's draft went badly. You need to bring your A game and don't have hours to prepare. Send us your league's scoring and draft rules. We'll review them and join you on the phone or Zoom to walk through round-by-round strategies: how to know you're prepared, how to bargain hunt, etc. We'll even help you understand how to capitalize on how players are ordered in your online draft. And for auction drafters, we'll advise on $1-$2 players to take when most of your opponents are out of funds. These give-and-take sessions enable you to focus on areas where you want the most help.

Substitute Drafter -- $40 per hour

Did a friend selfishly schedule their wedding ceremony during your draft? Sometimes life happens, and fantasy has to take a backseat. Don't auto-draft and get stuck with a couple recently retired players. Give us the keys, and we'll treat your draft like it's ours--while honoring any specific requests and strategies you want to use. We'll pour over the scoring and draft rules, assemble a customized set of rankings, and identify primary round-by-round targets. When it's over, we'll hand back your keys with your roster in mint condition.

Top-20 RB Handcuff Rankings -- $10 per week or $100 per season (18 weekly rankings)

You have a roster spot to fill. So fill it with an RB handcuff. Send us your scoring rules and available handcuffs, and we'll rank-order the top 20 based on any criteria you request: highest likelihood of earning more touches (if you need RB3/4 help), highest likelihood of taking over the starting job (if you need a higher-volume RB), or highest overall upside if the starter gets hurt.

Statistically-Backed Hypothesis Testing -- Price depends on complexity and time investment

We love digging into historical data to help validate or disprove conventional wisdoms. Do QBs perform better at home vs. on the road? Are starting WRs more productive right after a bye week? To what extent do high-workload RBs regress the following season? If you want a long-term edge over your opponents--something you know that they don't--let's talk through your hypothesis and how to most efficiently and effectively test it. We can serve as consultants, guiding you through the research and methodology we use for similar studies. Or we can do the work for you. Pricing is a set fee based on a mutually agreed-to time commitment.
