Hey all,
Since we launched our Lineup Dominator and Waiver & Trade Dominator apps to the app stores this year, a frequently asked question was if they'd be available online too.
That was very much the plan and they are now available in beta form - and we'd love your feedback!
Here's the link: https://my.footballguys.com
We've put a lot more work on top of the two apps here to make them both a) as presentable as possible on larger screens and b) working in ways that are familiar to our subscribers (e.g. 10 second primer is here, and improved on the site version)
Our version here is the next generation of MyFBG, for subscribers (Insider PRO and Insider PRO Plus), online. This will be in beta test mode through the end of the year - please give us your feedback here or using the feedback button on the page.
For sure we've made errors in the way we've launched things in the past, so please know this before you dig in:
[*]There are no current plans to shut down MyFBG in its form as you guys know it. That said, if there's a reason why you prefer the old system over this new one, please let me know. We want this new version to work for everyone at least as well as MyFBG.
If you'd like more details on what is available at the link above, here is what each app can do...
Lineup Dominator
We do have a list of things we're adding (highest priority is syncing rosters, lineup settings and schedule from league sites) but we hope you guys can give us more to think about!

- This is a beta test. It's not a formal part of Footballguys at this point. So unlike all our other products, where help is through our dedicated support center at sportsguys.zendesk.com, we want your feedback in this thread
- I and the rest of the team are really receptive to feedback, suggestions, alterations etc. From now until week 17, I'm looking to work with anyone who gives us feedback to address it in the product. I may take detailed issues to PMs to stop this thread getting too clogged up.
- If you're reporting bugs, please let us know:
your FBG username
- your browser and version
- a step-by-step description of what happened

Lineup Dominator
- 10 second primer next generation: shows a single consensus lineup and how each of Tremblay, Bloom, Dodds etc disagree with that.
- Deeper matchup analysis: drill down to one league and optimize to win % (dependent on if you're the favourite or the underdog, and which players are in which games). Get charts for win % chance, points by time, free agent blocking etc.
- Weekly rankings: highlight owners, chance projection balances, sort by projectors, strength of schedule etc
- Schedule: see all the matchups in your league this week or all your matchups for the whole season using Bob Henry's rest of season numbers
- Roster: view Sigmund Bloom's stock up/down report for your roster. See power rankings for your league, and compare your points at each position and on your bench versus the league average. Get news reports for your roster.
- WW/FA: Bloom's waiver report filtered down to free agents for your league. Available free agents as per our projections, ordered by how much they would specifically help your team's projected points each week (weekly weights available to change the balance of each week in these calculations)
- Trade: search for trades. The app will recommend the best trades with each other team in your league. Evaluate trades that have been offered to you; find players who are good trade targets and construct offers for them.
- Season Rankings: Bob's rest of year numbers for your league. Again you can highlight teams and use the weekly weights here.
We do have a list of things we're adding (highest priority is syncing rosters, lineup settings and schedule from league sites) but we hope you guys can give us more to think about!
