Ask HN: anyone doing an interesting fantasy football startup?
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1634870I'd be willing to pay for a fantasy football service with an emphasis on analytics, especially if it has an API. I know about myfantasyleague.com and their API, and it's a start, but it appears to be focused mainly on managing leagues hosted on their service (drops, adds, standings, etc.). I don't need real-time feeds; I'm mainly interested in using historical player data to create a draft strategy, and to make my own weekly player projections.
Basically, what I'd like is a service that gives me an API to access the player data that ESPN, Yahoo, CBS, etc. use to make their predictions, so that I can make my own.
Is STATS the only source for this kind of information?
