FBG Projections are LIVE (1 Viewer)

[JayMan]

When will projections be available to download into the DD and LD tools?

I'd really like this as soon as possible with bye weeks updated. The rest of it can be left as is until Bruce makes any other improvements for this year.

We are shooting for Tuesday/Wednesday of next week to release the first Draft Dominator. Things left to do:1. Another pass over with the projections.2. Creation of defensive team projections3. Creation and integration of Clayton Gray's Strength of Schedule4. Distribution Curves5. Creation/Input into VBD App

... and, of course

It will be official that Benson = bust on the scale of Joey Harrington if he can't break 1000 yards on that team.

Seriously. He is penciled in for 1100 yards.Are those the projections through week 8?

IIRC, one of the main complaints in the "FBG Complaint Thread" was not living up to deadlines... would have liked to have seen them come close to hitting the first target of the season...

Probably June?

Probably June? :(

Bruce said in the DD forum that it usually comes out "a couple of weeks after the NFL draft". Given how things tend to go here, June 1 seems a good target date.

This happens every year...............:May: "DD will be out next week"..................(month later :June DD is released.Sad thing, every year I actually get my hopes up thinking it'll be released on time. Only to be dissapointed. It like the "Boy Who Cried Wolf" the DD version. Somewhere Joe and David are laughing at us. :(

The thing is, I don't care when it comes out. I draft in August, I got plenty of time. I know they have improvements on the way, I assume they've been working on them behind the scenes since February or so. I'd like to see them fully implemented when the program comes out, however long that takes.

The only thing that upsets me is the consitency with missed deadlines. If Joe or David said "we're aiming for June 1", then no one would complain. No one. But "we're looking at May 8th or 9th", when this website is notorious for missed deadlines, leaves a sour taste with me.

Edit to add: Bruce now says the end of this week, because staffers are late in getting stuff done for the magazine. Which is out of date as soon as it prints, of course.
