UNDER THE HOOD
Why the picks are right

Built on your rules

Replacement level is computed from your league's exact lineup — every starter, flex, and bench slot. A 3-WR league and a 2-flex league get different boards, because they're different games.

Scoring-true projections

Every projection is re-priced to your exact reception value using projected catches — so a 111-catch receiver ranks where he should in your scoring, not someone else's.

Your seat, mathematically

Snake turn-picks computed for your slot, with tier-cliff analysis across your real wait between picks — it knows what will be gone before you're back on the clock.

News priced in, not bolted on

Injuries, suspensions, exempt-list moves, and camp risers adjust every player's value — with live status flags (OUT · IR · SUS · Q) pulled the moment you sign in.

Read-only league syncing · nothing stored on any server.

⚠ Draft-Day Risk Guide — every way a player burns you

Status chips on the board come live from Sleeper's player database at sign-in. Here's how to read each situation:

OUT / INJURED RESERVE / PUP
Missing real games. IR/PUP to open the season = minimum 4 games gone. Only draft as a late-round stash with a bench spot (or IR slot) to spare — never as a starter you're counting on Week 1.
SUSPENDED / COMMISSIONER EXEMPT
League discipline — arrests, conduct cases. Exempt list = paid leave, out indefinitely with no timeline. A defined 2-game suspension is priceable; an open-ended review is not. Discount hard the earlier your pick.
QUESTIONABLE / DOUBTFUL (camp injuries)
Hamstrings and soft-tissue injuries in August recur — a player on his 3rd or 4th pull is a season-long risk, not a one-week one. Ankle sprains in preseason often cost Weeks 1-2 quietly.
RETIRED / INACTIVE / UNSIGNED
Sleeper still lists them, and autodraft queues still take them. If a player's status isn't Active and there's no injury attached — check whether he retired or is sitting unsigned before spending a pick.
HOLDOUT / CONTRACT DISPUTE
No injury tag, all risk anyway. Missing camp reps costs early-season usage even after they report.
DEPTH-CHART DEMOTION
The silent killer — a "healthy" veteran who lost his job in camp to a rookie. Rankings lag reality by weeks. Check camp reports on anyone whose price seems too good.
ROOKIE RAMP + BYE STACKING
Rookies with elite talent often start slow (snap counts build over a month). And never let 3+ of your starters share a bye week — you'll forfeit that week outright.
