How Buzz Scores Work

Buzz scores aggregate data from dozens of dynasty fantasy football sources. Each player's score is calculated from mention frequency, source diversity (being talked about by many different analysts), recency weighting (recent mentions count more), and momentum (whether buzz is trending up or down). Scores update daily after the full ingestion cycle processes new articles.
