I recently saw mention of an H-value by Maurile Tremblay, based on conversation from Dan Hindery, and I am wondering if it has any value when analyzing regular auctions rather than DFS. It seems you would take the Points / Auction value and then multiply it by (Points * 1.73) to get the H-value. How would I use this H-value if trying to determine an optimal lineup for my auction? Could this be used to generate a better auction value per player?
On a side note, it would seem the auction value generated by DD would have a consistent value when VBD / Auction value, since the value is the point rate * the VBD. However, I can see the #6 and #7 QBs with the same VBD having a difference of $1.28. The auctions.csv file has 1 for every position/rank, weekly weights are all 1 and no use of strength of schedule. I thought the auction value was consistently applied, so I did not understand if the H-value would be of any use, but it seems the auction values in DD are different, so the H-value may be able to tell me better "values".
