Bruce Henderson has tweaked the Trade Dominator to make it easier each week for you to assess your team.
If you are using the trade dominator for the first time, you will need to download both parts and install version 1.0a first. If you already have version a, just download the patch.
After downloading the app (it contains old data), do the following each week (starting this week):
1. From File Pull Down Menu, Choose Get New Data. This will update the data to the latest Top 200 Forward list available at Footballguys.com. Make sure you are connected to the internet before doing this.
If you experience any problems, send Bruce a note at [email protected]
Bruce Henderson has been back in the lab and created another very powerful tool for the fantasy hobby. Called the Trade Dominator, it is more than just a trade tool.
1. It will evaluate your roster and determine positional baselines to allow you to evaluate any trade or waiver pickup.
2. It will compare any two rosters so you can now compare your team against your rivals.
This app does not look at a trade based on how valuable a player is; It evaluates the trade to determine if you improved your team. This, in our opinion, is the correct way to evaluate trades. It is based on number of starters and properly evaluating current and proposed depth.
Written for Microsoft Windows. It uses data from the Top 200 forward found at this site.
Enjoy, David Dodds
