Editorial Process

Editorial Methodology.

Fantasy Football Nerds publishes fantasy football analysis from a data-supported editorial workflow. The process combines FFN rankings, projections, public data contracts, reviewed news surfaces, article QA checks, and editorial review.

01 // Methodology How analysis gets built

1. Inputs

FFN analysis starts from football and fantasy inputs such as rankings, projections, depth charts, schedule context, availability signals, transaction impact notes, market movement, and reviewed news surfaces.

Those inputs can vary by article type. A draft-price article may lean more on rankings and ADP context, while a news reaction may lean more on availability, depth-chart movement, and the timing of public reports.

2. Drafting and QA

Some drafting, structuring, formatting, and quality-control work may use automated or AI-assisted systems. We disclose that separately on the AI Disclosure page and do not present automated work as the independent opinion of a named human unless a named person actually reviewed it to that standard.

QA checks are designed to reduce unsupported claims, stale-source problems, broken article structure, missing social context, and obvious data conflicts before publication.

3. Editorial Review

The FFN Editorial Team label refers to the site's review process and publishing standards. It is not a claim that every sentence was written or reviewed by a specific named analyst. When a piece has named human review or authorship, that will be stated directly.

Editorial review may include checking the article's thesis, fantasy usefulness, sourcing basis, player/team context, and whether the conclusion matches the available evidence.

4. Limits

Our content is informational. Fantasy football decisions still depend on league settings, timing, injury news, roster context, and uncertainty in player outcomes.

Even with data and review workflows, fantasy football analysis can be wrong. Use FFN content as one input alongside league settings, roster needs, waiver timing, and updated news.

Use the conclusion with the context. Article takes are strongest when paired with current rankings, projections, news, and your league settings.
