4–16 Players

League Mode Fantasy Football Draft

A traditional snake draft with 4 to 16 players, compressed into a single session. All the feel of a real fantasy league without the 17-week commitment.

01

A full fantasy football league in one sitting

League mode is for the crew that loves draft night but hates the rest of fantasy season. You create a private room, invite 3 to 15 friends, and run a full snake draft with real NFL player pools. Whoever drafts the highest-scoring nine-slot lineup wins. That is the whole thing — no waiver wire, no trade deadlines, no league drama about the commissioner, no team quitting in week 6. Just the draft, settled in one sitting.

02

How league mode scales

League mode supports 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, and 16-player drafts. The pick order is randomized at the start and the draft snakes normally (first pick in round one gets the last pick in round two, and so on). Each player fills the same 9-slot lineup: QB, RB, RB, WR, WR, TE, FLEX, DEF, K. Because everyone is drafting from the same live pool, scarcity matters — letting an elite tight end slip in a 12-team league can cost you the win.

03

The fantasy draft experience without the season

If your group used to run a fantasy league but drifted apart because people stopped checking in, league mode is designed for you. You coordinate one hour, everyone shows up to the room, you run the draft live, and an hour later there is a winner. You can run it weekly during the NFL season, monthly in the offseason using Time Machine past-season data, or whenever your group feels like it.

FAQ

Frequently asked.

How many players can join a league draft?

Between 4 and 16 players. Common sizes are 8, 10, and 12.

How long does a league draft take?

Roughly 15 to 45 minutes depending on the league size and the pick timer setting. A 12-player draft typically runs about 30 minutes.

Can I run a private league with just my friends?

Yes. League rooms are private by default. You share the invite link with your group and only people with the link can join.

Does league mode have a waiver wire or trades?

No. League mode is draft-only — whoever drafts the highest-scoring lineup wins. This is intentional: it is the part of fantasy football most people love without the season-long upkeep.
