FG just [updated their auction calculator](https://www.fangraphs.com/fantasy-tools/auction-calculator). I’m not sure if this idea/request should be directed to FG or Ottoneu, but it would be really cool if a future iteration would include the ability to automatically import Ottoneu CSV roster files. At present, you’d have to enter in keepers and their salaries manually.
I know Justin’s surplus calculator is really popular and don’t want to step on that at all, but I like getting different perspectives on valuations. While it would be possible to export the FG auction calculator results and put that into the SC as user-defined values, that is a little extra work. Although the FG Auction Calculator now exports with FG playerids, you’d first have to map those onto Ottoneu IDs. So it would be a few steps to get the values into the SC (certainly doable, but a bit of a pain in the butt especially if you need to do it for multiple leagues).
I know that you’ve got a lot on your plate during draft season and I imagine that FG has other priorities as well, but maybe see if it’s possible for next off-season? Thanks for your consideration.

This is 100% a request for FG and I have made it and will continue to make it personally to those guys.
Just like the [leaderboard](https://community.ottoneu.com/t/last-30-14-7-day-stats-when-looking-for-fa/5960) [requests](https://community.ottoneu.com/t/point-rates-stats-needed-in-fangraphs/3970), the more they hear from Ottoneu users, the more likely it is that stuff gets done. There is only so much Appelman et al listen to me 🙂
I will of course continue to advocate for more integration between Ottoneu and FanGraphs.

Hmm… some sort of FG Auction Calc import into the SC could be something I could add, where basically you just copy the output from FG Auction Calc into a tab on the SC, flip a setting, and the SC formats everything the way it needs it to work. Not promising anything, but I hadn’t thought of doing something like that, or that it would be something of value to others, so thanks for putting the idea in my head!
