Set your lineup with numbers you can check.

Weekly start/sit for every position, rebuilt before every slate from injury reports, practice participation and Vegas lines. Season-long rankings for your exact league settings, waiver targets with the usage behind them, and a survivor planner that looks several weeks ahead. The top ten at each position is public, with no account and no email address, because a ranking you cannot check is worth nothing. An NFL Draft big board and mock simulator sit alongside it.

The UI Score

A smarter way to rank prospects

Most rankings are just opinions. The UI Score is different — it's a 0–100 number built from real college production data, athletic testing results, conference strength, and historical comps to players who actually made it in the NFL. No gut feel, no hype.

Blue Chip (90+) · Elite (80–89) · Premium (70–79) · Above Average (60–69)

Mock Draft Simulator

The most realistic draft sim out there

Other simulators let the CPU pick randomly. Ours uses real ADP data, team needs by depth chart, and GM tendency profiles so every simulated pick reflects what teams are actually thinking. Run 1 round or all 7.

Mock Draft data is from the 2026 offseason. The 2027 class refreshes when the draft window reopens; the fantasy boards above refresh before every slate.
