Fantasy Football Player Comparison Tool
With the new NFL season just around the corner its time to prepare for your fantasy draft!
Use the fantasy football player comparison tool by selecting player 1 & player 2 from this lists provided. The report allows you to compare players by viewing key stats including total fantasy points for the previous season, projected receptions, yards and touchdowns for the upcoming season as well as this seasons NFL.com 2017/18 predicted points total.
What IFs have been included to allow the user to create their own player projections under the sections 'Calculate Your Own Projection'. Simply adjust the selected player/s yards and touchdown amounts to see how it will affect their overall fantasy points. The scoring is based on the standard NFL.com fantasy scoring system.
An option has also been included for PPR (points per reception) leagues, if your league is a PPR league then select 'Yes' in the top left corner and the overall points calculation will then also take into account the added points for each of the players receptions.
The data used is courtesy of - http://fantasy.nfl.com/research/projections, http://www.nfl.com/stats/player

This is really cool David!

Hello David, Would you be able to share how you had the slicer for the players name bring up the corresponding picture for that player?
Thank you
Hi Drew248
In order to get the player pictures to work in that way I downloaded the pictures and saved locally. I then used a website to create an image url for each picture, the image url can then be added into a column within the table/dataset for each player.
In Power BI I think I used the table visual which lets you drag in the image url field as a value, I then added the chiclet slicer and filtered on the player name field from my dataset. I set the chiclet slicer properties to force the need for there always to be a player name selected and also only allow one option/player could be selected at a time.
I have attached an image that may be of use.
All the best,
David
are you going to build one for the upcoming fantasy season ?
Hi Drew,
I haven't planned on making another comparison tool exactly like this, but I have been developing a new report based around NFL QBs past and present but I just havent had enough time to finish it off. Once I do finish it I will try to upload it.
Did my explanation help from the other week btw? Your question about the player images and filters...
David
Hi David,
Can you add a relevant description file as to how the report is prepared?
Thank you.
