In-Person Drafts
In-Person Drafts
FanDraft was created to act as a digital alternative to the outdated “Sticker/Paper” draft boards. It’s best used by exporting your display to a large-screen TV or digital projector for your whole league to enjoy.
Running the draft
The commissioner has special admin access that will allow him to make picks on behalf of all teams. However, if you have a remote owner unable to attend, they can make draft selections remotely at the same time.
Exporting your display
If you have a fairly modern TV and laptop, streaming/mirroring your laptop to a television is quite simple these days. Below are some resources to help with this process, should you run into any hurdles.
