Introducing Buzz Scores and Sentiment Ratings
Ownership is extremely important in daily fantasy sports. That’s why we’re excited to bring two new metrics from FanShare Sports into our NFL Models: Buzz Score and Sentiment Rating!
- Buzz Score measures how much each player is being talked about across the fantasy industry.
- Sentiment Rating helps sort through that buzz to distinguish the positive from the negative.

Freedman’s QB, RB, WR + TE Breakdowns
Matthew Freedman highlights the top cash-game and GPP value plays in his comprehensive breakdowns of each position:
- Quarterbacks: Deshaun Watson is as much of a lock as any quarterback to get a touchdown any given week. Freedman digs deeper into Watson’s Week 8 outlook in the full QB Breakdown.
- Running Backs: There seems to be this perception that he’s finally starting to break out. Freedman on why that’s not the difference for Fournette in the full RB Breakdown.
- Wide Receivers: A classic boom-or-bust player, this could be the week D.K. Metcalf booms. Freedman on whether you should gamble on the Seahawks wideout in the full WR Breakdown.
- Tight Ends: Kittle entered the season with a lot of hype, but through six games, Kittle has been a smidgen underwhelming. But Freedman explains why you shouldn’t give up on Kittle in the full TE Breakdown.
