What are your favorite advanced metrics/stats for FF? (1 Viewer)

[TripItUp]

Was curious what some of the SP regulars like to look at when preparing for your drafts?  

DVOA? (defense adjusted value over average)

EFF (efficiency)

TLOS (average time behind line of scrimmage)

TAY (average target air yards)

etc. etc.

So what do you guys look at?

Yards per pass route run which as far as I know is a PFF proprietary stat and was 90% of reason I used to subscribe to their site.

That is one of the frustrating aspects of the analytics boom, a lot of them are proprietary and you need to drop coin to get them.  Granted it takes work and time to produce them and obviously somebody needs to be compensated, but in a perfect world a lot of the advanced stats out these days would be more accessible.

I hear you. When PFF was around $25-30 a year I subscribed and again almost entirely for this stat. When their cost soared I actually asked them if I could just pay $30 a year for this one stat, of course they said no.
