Quantifying Fantasy Baseball/Football

I’m wondering if anybody has seen any quant models on Fantasy Baseball or football. I’m thinking that there is potentially a huge unserved market if somebody develops some factors that work well in baseball or football and if you could apply it to the fantasy realm.

What do you mean by quant models? If you mean advanced stats that reconcile actual results with expected results based on peripheral stats, then yes, tons of them.

I heard draftdude.com was really good.

Hopefully, this will point you in the right direction: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sabermetrics From what I remember John Henry successfully applied quant methods to rebuild the Red Sox.

footballguys.com has several “quant” models for ff
