Hi Bruce, great looking app you whipped up here.
Couple things I'm noticing about the LD. Not necessarily problems, just asking about the desired functionality and making some comments as I'm noticing behavior.
- Most week 2 projections in Setup-> Projections are 0.00 or 0.90, and weeks 3 and above are all 1.00. Is that right? Currently most WRs and TEs are projected to have 0 points this week. RBs and QBs have projected points though. But this is leading LD to tell me to start M Moore over like Anquan or Burleson.
- When I move the checkboxes to set the lineup for my opponent for the week, they reset to the highest values each time I look at a different week and come back.
- Moving players around for trades and waiver pickups works great.
- How heavily are the Game by Game projections weighting the projected points?
Thanks, and nice work on this one.

It looks like its trying to combine the the Week_02_Projected.csv (for the current week) and the Week_03_Forward.csv sheets for successive weeks.
In my setup, the players with 1.0's for week 2 (I see 1.0, not 0.9) are players who are missing from the week 3 forward sheet and so only have data for week 2. Well, except for McCants, who has first name Darnerian in one sheet and Darnerien in the other, and Terrance/Terrence Murphy. These two players have two entries in the projections sheet.
Also, there is some divergence between the top 200 forward rankings and lineup dominator's, that go beyond the scoring system used. Larry Fitzgerald, for one, is ranked significantly higher for the season in Lineup Dominator than in the top-200 list. Did FBG upgrade Larry Fitzgerald to a top 10 receiver since the top-200 sheet was published? That would explain it -- he's ranked very high, after all, in the cheetsheet for this week's matchup against the Rams.

The Weights aren't used for week 2... since it uses the _Projected file.
The GameByGame Weights will affect the Player Pool values and Cheatsheets... but will not affect the Weekly Lineup Scores.
The differences can probably be explained based on who generated the projections.
Dodds is the primary on the LD weekly projections and Top 200 Forward
Henry is the primary on the LD projections going forward
Norton is the primary on the LD IDP projections both weekly and going forward.
It appears that Dodds and Henry have slightly different opinions on Larry. This will converge over time.

Thanks for replying Bruce. I'll try to jump in here as needed, too (regarding the projections and potential differences between David and I).
I'm using two primary factors.. one is the Top 200 to try to gauge what players David moves up/down and keep my year-to-end projections as closely as possibly with his Top200. That said, the Top 200 isn't specifically correlated to projections from David, so I fill in the cracks with specific projections. I may have inadvertently over-projected Larry, though it wasn't intentional. I'll take a closer look at that and hopefully we can keep those discrepancies to a minimum.
David and I talked at length about the potential of this happening as it was one of our biggest concerns with the numbers. That said, this was our first crack at it and I firmly believe we'll converge more over time as Bruce mentions in his post.
Feel free to ping me with any questions, concerns or even to draw my attention to something you think looks out of whack. The more eyes the better I say.. You can contact me via PM here on the boards or email (henry@...)

Also Javon Walker continues to top the WR rankings.
As a consequence, on the Team Strengths dialog, the team in my league that owns Walker shows up as having the strongest WR corps in the league: Walker, S Smith, McCardell, McCareins.
Um, no.

Yes I was wondering why it was telling me to startChris Brown and not Fitz.

There are no TDs in the season Projections for any TE or WR. Need to provide a new projections file for us to import.
