The only real difference to you as team owner is
to understand that in most Rotisserie type leagues,each point category is equally weighed.
In other words homeruns are worth the same as stolen bases. In the Generic Fantasy Point
model, each category has a different value & weight. If your not sure which
projections model to use, ask your commissioner, if not you will find most of the player
values between the two databases are pretty close.
As anyone will tell you, projections are an
art rather than a science, and no system will 100% accurately predict an unknown future
event or groups of events. However past performance is a relatively good predictor of
future player performance. At Fantistics we have devised a model that utilizes 50
years of player statistics, which remarkably has produced amazing accuracy in
predicting future player performance. This model evolved from months of backtesting and
considers such factors as 3 year performance (not average, but trend & moving average
analysis), player age, team strength, durability, and contract year status.
