The measured edge

+3.84 Points per week of measured edge*
2,240 Simulated drafts behind that number
20.9% Points-title rate, vs 14.5% drafting by ADP*
21 Seasons of NFL history under the hood

*Paired walk-forward simulations against a disciplined ADP drafter in 12-team rooms. Opponents are simulated, and "title" means the regular-season points title — playoff luck is not modeled. The caveat stays because hiding it would be easy.

Where it sits

The Board doesn't replace Sleeper or ESPN. It reads your league, tells you the move, and sends you back to make it there. Nothing here ever writes to your league — the platform still owns the claim, the trade, the lineup.

For a manager running one or more leagues on Sleeper or ESPN who wants sharper draft prep and weekly decisions without leaving either platform.

Draft night, play by play

News, Injuries, Movement

Daily market snapshots track every riser and faller. Injury flags and overnight status news land directly on the player row.

Player Cards

Open any name for the algorithm's read: where the model and the market disagree, and why. Season finishes and efficiency splits included.

Mock Drafts, Graded

Rehearse against a simulated room. Every mock ends with a letter grade, your best pick, and the steals you landed.

Live Draft Sync

Tracks your real draft as it happens, on Sleeper and ESPN. If the app closes mid-draft, it resumes at the current pick, and finished drafts export rosters straight back to your league.

Steal Detection

When a player falls past his market price, an aurora sweep runs through his row and a steal badge pops in. Value never walks by unseen.

Trade Advisor

Mid-draft pick trades, priced on the same board math that scores every pick. You only see an offer both rosters should rationally take, and nothing moves until both managers agree.

Under the hood

01 · ffdata

Data Layer

League, roster, and draft data from the Sleeper and ESPN APIs, merged with nflverse player-week history back to 2005 — one local database, no black boxes.

02 · ffrank

Ranking Engine

Two decades of history recomputed under your scoring. Aging curves, rookie college pedigree, opportunity split from efficiency. Every weight tunable, every config back-tested.

03 · ffdraft

Draft Tracker

The market's own price for every name still on the board, weighted by how likely you are to start him — one score, recomputed with every pick.

04 · war room

The Board

The full board, player cards, team rosters, and recommendations in the browser — updated the moment each pick lands.

The evidence standard

Most of these ideas are dead. Good.

Every idea that wants onto the board has to survive a pre-registered, walk-forward simulation gauntlet across sixteen seasons of real drafts. Most don't. The graveyard is the point — what ships is only what beat the test.

Refuted

Autopilot pick-trading — lost points in simulation. Demoted to advisory.

Refuted

Drafting for positional upside and variance — cost points outright.

Null

Trusting the model over the market — when they disagree, the market wins more often.

Null

Playoff-week schedule strength — no measurable signal. Out.

Null

Combine athleticism scores — nothing left in them at draft price.

Null

Rookie mispricing — the market prices rookies just fine.

False

"Rookies are boom-or-bust" folklore — bust rates match veterans. Ignored.

Shipped

Survival-timing draft board + model tilt — the measured +3.84 points-per-week edge.

Every screen here runs today.

Draft night and the season both. Standings, rosters, waiver wire, my roster, matchup, activity, outlook and trades are live beside the war room: weekly projections that account for byes and injury status, waiver value measured against your own bench, a lineup that knows when a game has locked, and a trade read that prices a deal against your roster, not just the players in it.

The season numbers are newer than the draft board's and their backtests are still running. Where one hasn't cleared yet, the screen labels the number provisional rather than quietly rounding it up. Nothing reaches a recommendation until it beats a baseline in a walk-forward test — the standard the draft board had to clear.
