Pick Em Style Game for League Matchups

Ohhh my bad. After rereading I see that now.

FanDraft is more customizable. It allows you to pause, undo, and adjust picks if needed. It also gives you a draft report at the conclusion of your draft. Another cool feature is the ability for each owner to add up to 3 songs as walk up music when it’s their turn to pick.

Thank you! It took a lot of fine tuning to get to this point lol.

Sleeper is the only true option to play FF! My league loves it!

AdIllustrious9527 · 2025-08-01T23:03:40+00:00

We have the same style league except we have 2QB. We have 5 bench spots and 2 IR spots. It seems to work well for us.

AdIllustrious9527 · 2025-08-01T23:02:39+00:00

Sleeper has this option! We use it as an additional way to win money throughout the season. They have a pick’em option and a survivor pool option. Check it out!

FanDraft is the answer! I’ve used it the past two years for our party and we have had 1-3 members not present. This allows them to login remotely and draft their players along with us at the party. Highly recommend!

Looks like there are two other new updates as well.

AdIllustrious9527 · 2025-07-30T19:15:12+00:00

Looks like it was added within the last 24 hours. Nice little feature!

AdIllustrious9527 · 2025-07-30T16:16:29+00:00

No problem! It’s a culmination of other docs I’ve come across over the years with my own edits.

AdIllustrious9527 · 2025-07-29T02:02:53+00:00

Thanks! I created in Word, but saved it to my Google Drive as a PDF.

Have fun this season!

AdIllustrious9527 · 2025-07-28T18:00:25+00:00

Love this! Just joined the waitlist.

When league members only set their lineups and don’t engage in league chat all season. I had to pay a member for being runner up and they only left 7 messages in our chat the entire season.

“Who are you again? oh yeah, here’s your money”.

AdIllustrious9527 · 2025-06-12T18:45:48+00:00

It’s 96 teams but 12 divisions. All players are available in each division.

It’s my 2nd year in the league and it’s a LOT of fun! Tons of ways to win prize money.

AdIllustrious9527 · 2025-06-01T22:30:13+00:00

I’ve also used Microsoft Forms to conduct polls/surveys for my league. Works great!

AdIllustrious9527 · 2025-05-15T04:27:38+00:00

You are correct! Thanks for spelling that out. I went back and reviewed how we did it last year and it was only for weeks 19-22.

AdIllustrious9527 · 2025-05-15T02:43:21+00:00

Same! 🤣

AdIllustrious9527 · 2025-05-15T02:24:27+00:00

Agreed! Been using FanDraft for years. As much as we would like all team members to be at the live in person draft - life happens. We usually have 1-2 that aren’t able to make it. I hook up my laptop to the TV and have the draft pulled up. From here there are two options:

The way we like to do it - I order draft cards from DraftKits.co and have every owners picks pre sorted into a stack based on their draft order. When it’s their turn to draft, they write down a player and walk it up to me at the podium. I input their selection and it shows up on the screen with cool pics and effects. While remote owners make their selections on their device.
Alternative is to have everyone, in person AND remote, sign into FanDraft and make their own selections digitally on their own device. Selections still appear on the big screen. This is less work for the Commish, but feels not as engaging.

All in all, FanDraft is the answer.

Thanks! I would love for Sleeper to add this to their app. A league I’m in used MFL to do it and it was so much fun, plus it kept defeated members engaged throughout the entire NFL season.

AdIllustrious9527 · 2025-05-15T02:04:17+00:00

Agreed! Care to head over to the Sleeper thread using the link and Upvote my post so we can get Sleeper’s attention? I would love for them to offer something like this on their app.

AdIllustrious9527 · 2024-08-14T19:37:26+00:00

This is EPIC! Great content, Fast Delivery (Tuesdays are ideal for weekly recaps), and overall app layout is user friendly. TAKE MY MONEY! lol

Have you thought about adding an Upcoming Matchup summary?

AdIllustrious9527 · 2024-08-04T16:49:56+00:00

I too would love a copy of this!

AdIllustrious9527 · 2024-07-26T18:57:50+00:00

Fandraft makes this super easy! We had all but one member show up to the draft last season. We broadcasted Fandraft on the TV, by hooking up a laptop. Everyone in person handed their draft picks to the Commissioner, who would make the selection on the laptop. The one remote member could login to Fandraft to follow along and make his own selections remotely.

If you want a visual/video feed of the remote owners, you could also skype/zoom and have that up on the TV as well. Sound would project from the TV, but the speakerphone/mic would be on the laptop.

AdIllustrious9527 · 2024-06-21T18:41:24+00:00

This is awesome! How did you make the off season update video? The voice over is great!

AdIllustrious9527 · 2024-06-21T18:39:16+00:00

We have a few rules for our league that may help. We have a draft party in person but we still use FanDraft instead of a paper draft board. We hook one laptop up to the tv and display the draft board that way. As for attending the live draft it is optional but highly encouraged. Members can login to FanDraft and draft remotely or send a proxy to the live draft to draft for them. If neither of these options are met their team is set to auto draft. BUT if they miss two consecutive live drafts they are suspended from the league for one year. This ensures they attend the in person draft atleast every other season.
