Reading Recommendation Cards

Example Recommendation from 2024 Week 9

WR
Tyreek Hill
Start6
Tyreek Hill is a top option for Miami and expected to have improved performance with Tua's return. Despite some underwhelming performances, he has strong metrics indicating a breakout is possible. Health concerns related to his foot are not serious enough to remove him from lineups, and he has favorable matchups ahead. Want 8 more details?

Tyreek Hill is a top option for Miami and expected to have improved performance with Tua's return. Despite some underwhelming performances, he has strong metrics indicating a breakout is possible. Health concerns related to his foot are not serious enough to remove him from lineups, and he has favorable matchups ahead.

    Each recommendation card shows the position in a grey pill (like RB) on the left, followed by the player or team name in the center, and the action badge (like Start8.5) on the right containing the recommended action and confidence score. The card body contains a summary of expert opinions and analysis behind the recommendation.

    Understanding Confidence Scores

    Our confidence scores (1-10) combine two key factors: how many experts agree on a recommendation, and how credible those experts are. When you see the consensus icon next to a score, that means multiple experts provided the same recommendation.

    For single expert insights (marked with *), the score reflects that expert's credibility. For multiple sources (marked with ), we calculate both the level of agreement and the average credibility of those experts. More recent advice carries more weight in the calculation.

    Score Ranges

    Note: Badge colors indicate the action type (Start, Sit, etc.), not the confidence score.

    9-10Extremely strong recommendation
    7-9Very strong recommendation
    5-7Strong recommendation
    3-5Moderate recommendation
    1-3Weak recommendation

    Expert Source Indicators

    When you see '5 experts agree', that means 5 different expert sources provided the same recommendation for that player. This gives you the wisdom of crowds.

    Single-source recommendations often contain unique insights or contrarian takes that could give you an edge, while multi-source recommendations represent safer consensus plays.

    👥 "5 experts agree"

    Multiple sources recommend the same action - safer consensus play

    🎯 Single source

    Unique insight or contrarian take - potential edge opportunity
