What is Fantasy Nerds?

At present, the Fantasy Nerds API does not support Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS). Users who have shown interest in this feature typically want to utilize it for client-side JavaScript applications. However, executing an Ajax call using JavaScript may unintentionally expose your API key to anyone who inspects the page source, which violates our terms and conditions. Exposing your API key on a public site can lead to unauthorized access by others who might exploit your key for making API calls. Many of our static services, including NFL teams and Bye Weeks, are updated only once a season, making it unnecessary to call these services repeatedly since the data remains unchanged. In addition, rankings and projections are usually refreshed just once or twice each day. Consequently, we strongly recommend that you cache the fetched results locally; this not only shields your API key but also boosts your application's performance by minimizing the number of requests made. Moreover, implementing caching can significantly enhance user experience by providing faster access to data that is frequently needed. By adopting these practices, you can ensure both security and efficiency in your application.

    Great Fantasy Football API

    Date: Aug 18 2025
    Summary

    Overall, I can't say enough positive things about their API. I was able to get up and running in no time and built out an entire website that would have taken me a year to build from scratch. Good, reliable service.

    Positive

    The FantasyNerds.com API is hands down one of the best fantasy football data sources I've worked with. The endpoints are clean, fast, and well-documented, making integration straightforward even for complex fantasy apps.

    What I really appreciate is the depth and accuracy of the data - from player projections and rankings to depth charts and news updates. Everything updates in real-time, so you're always working with fresh, reliable information. That's a huge edge when building tools for drafts, waiver wire pickups, or weekly lineup optimization.

    The performance is excellent. I've seen consistently quick response times and zero downtime throughout the season. On top of that, the support team is responsive and genuinely helpful, which gives you confidence when building your fantasy platform around it.

    In short: if you're developing a fantasy football app, bot, or custom league tool, the FantasyNerds API is the gold standard. It's powerful, easy to use, and built by people who clearly understand what fantasy players need.

    Negative

    I ended up subscribing to all three sports (NFL, MLB, and NBA) but not at the same time. They offer a discount if you purchase all three at the same time. I started with the NFL API first, but when I went to add the others, the discount was no longer available. It would be nice if they added that.

    Great for fantasy sports sites

    Date: May 03 2023
    Summary

    Overall I have really positive things to say about those guys. They really do an awesome job of making it easy on me to implement. Not only do I use the WordPress plugin with the API but I can also use the API on my own which I'm now doing.

    Positive

    I use their API with my WordPress website. I literally just have to put a shortcode in and they populate rankings, projections, lineups, depth charts, schedules, and a ton more for my fantasy football, baseball, and basketball site. I can focus on writing my content and the tools portion is automatically updated by them. I love this and my users do too.

    Negative

    No real cons to speak of. The only complaint I kind of have is that they offer a discount if you buy all three sports but only if you buy them at the same time. I bought the baseball sub a few months later and they didn't have a way to give me a discount. Granted, it wasn't a big discount and it wasn't a big deal to me but it would be nice if we decide to buy a sport later.
