WHAT MAKES THIS PRODUCT WORTHY OF WINNING
There are many reasons, but we’ll give you our top three.
- Weekly Waivers: Ask ANY high stakes player what’s most important to them and they’ll all tell you. Easy to use weekly waiver system. There’s nothing more time consuming and frustrating than a clunky user interface for waivers each week. Scout Fantasy has without a doubt the easiest to use FAAB waivers software in the industry with minimal mouse clicks and movement needed to build and edit your bid groups each Wednesday. Quickly sort players by team, by name, season to date points scored, last week’s points scored or % owned. Copy bid groups with two clicks of the mouse.
- Revolutionary Draft Room – Never print out a cheat sheet for an online draft again! The real-time cheat sheet is a game changer. Pre-rank your position lists and they store for every future draft. As the draft starts, sit back and watch the color coded draft board as the draft unfolds. Flip over to your custom Cheat sheet (or compare to ours instead) and watch as the software crosses off the players on your list for you as they are drafted. Quickly jump to ADP and depth chart reports that give you instant access to information that you need in pressure situations when you’re on the clock.
- Multi-team management. Our My Teams page and My Lineups make it easier than ever to manage all of your teams all on one page. Late breaking injury? Type in his name and quickly return all teams that player is on to sub him out in seconds.
While the rules and scoring can be customized for practically every fantasy application, the above are what we’ve found to be most important to players.
