What Is the Trade Fairness Meter?
The Trade Fairness Meter is an instant fantasy football trade evaluator that compares multi-player trades side by side. Simply add players to Side A and Side B, enter their projected points, and the tool calculates:
- Fairness Percentage: How balanced the trade is (closer to 0% = perfectly fair)
- Trade Winner: Which side gets more total projected points
- Recommendation: Actionable advice — Accept, Decline, or Counter
📊 Fairness Scale
Fair Trade
Slightly Unfair
Very Unfair
Use this tool before accepting any trade to ensure you're getting fair value. It's especially useful for complex multi-player trades where it's hard to compare value at a glance.
How the Trade Fairness Is Calculated
The Trade Fairness Meter uses a combination of raw point totals and position-based Value Over Replacement Player (VORP) weighting to evaluate trade balance.
📐 Formula
Weighted Value = PPG × Position Weight
Position weights: QB = 1.0, RB = 1.2, WR = 1.1, TE = 1.15
Fairness % = (|Side A Total - Side B Total| ÷ Max(Side A Total, Side B Total)) × 100
📊 Worked Example
Side A: Derrick Henry (RB, 18.5 PPG) × 1.2 = 22.2
DeAndre Hopkins (WR, 12.3 PPG) × 1.1 = 13.5
Total: 35.7 weighted points
Side B: Bijan Robinson (RB, 16.2 PPG) × 1.2 = 19.4
Ja'Marr Chase (WR, 14.1 PPG) × 1.1 = 15.5
Total: 34.9 weighted points
Difference: 0.8 weighted points
Fairness: (0.8 ÷ 35.7) × 100 = 2.2% — FAIR TRADE
🎯 Position Weights (VORP)
- RB: 1.2 — Running backs are scarce; their PPG carries more value
- TE: 1.15 — Elite tight ends are rare; positional value matters
- WR: 1.1 — Wide receivers have depth, but elite ones are valuable
- QB: 1.0 — Quarterbacks are replaceable; baseline weight
