Draft HUD

A live draft co-pilot. It watches your draft as picks come in, re-ranks the remaining board against your league's exact roster and scoring rules, and tells you which players will still be there when it's your turn.

Draft HUD board view: a ranked player table with tier, value, projection, and 30-day trend columns, beside a live room read, roster slots, and a round-by-round plan.

Board view on a laptop or iPad. On a phone it collapses to a heads-up strip with the top recommendations and your next pick.

What it does

One screen, next to the draft room.

01

Reads your league, not a generic list

Roster slots, scoring, superflex, IDP, and draft format are pulled from the league. Rankings are re-weighted for what your lineup actually needs.

02

Survival odds for every player

For each name on the board, the chance they're still available at your next pick, so you know when to reach and when to wait.

03

Flags your guys

Star a player and the HUD warns you, with a chime, the moment their odds of surviving drop below your threshold.

04

Dynasty or redraft

One toggle switches between long-term asset values and this-season projections, with a slider to blend the two.

05

Mock mode

Rehearse the draft against simulated opponents who pick off market ADP with their own tendencies, so your plan survives contact.

06

Trade calculator

Players and picks on both sides, valued on the same market scale as the board, so a draft-day offer can be judged in seconds.

Where it connects

Live sync where the platform allows it.

Live sync Sleeper

Reads the draft from Sleeper's public API every few seconds. Nothing to install and no login required.

Live sync MyFantasyLeague

Draft board and picks via the MFL API, polled at a rate that respects MFL's limits.

Access requested Yahoo Fantasy

Read-only sync via the Yahoo Fantasy Sports API is planned. Access has been requested for personal, single-league use.

Manual ESPN, CBS, Underdog

Tap each pick into the board as it happens on the other site. The full engine works the same way.

A personal tool, not a product.

Draft HUD was built for the leagues the Kenical Labs founder plays in with family, including a team he co-manages with his nine-year-old nephew. It has no accounts, no ads, and nothing is sold. It's published here so people we draft with can find it.

Ask about it

League and draft data come from each platform's own API and are read only. Player market values are from FantasyCalc; projections and ADP from the hosting platform. Draft HUD is not affiliated with or endorsed by Sleeper, MyFantasyLeague, Yahoo, ESPN, CBS, or Underdog.
