The best fantasy draft tools are ones that you can quickly and easily use as the draft is taking place. That's exactly what you get with the RotoWire Draft Assistant. You could tab back and forth between your draft and the Draft Assistant, but the faster and more efficient way to draft is by using the RotoWire Live Draft Sync option.
This fantasy football tool syncs your draft into the RotoWire interface. By doing this, you can see your draft progress live as it happens. Having that ability alone is powerful, but the RotoWire Live Draft Sync does so much more than this.
What Is Live Draft Sync and How It Works
The RotoWire Live Draft Sync automatically pulls live draft picks into the Draft Assistant interface in real time. That is a two-way interface, meaning that you can also make picks and put players into the draft queue. That allows you to have a single point of management for all your fantasy drafts. This feature works with any type of scoring league, be it a standard, half-PPR, PPR or one with custom scoring.
The Live Draft Sync gives you the option to view the draft in a fantasy football cheat sheet or draft board format. You can also view individual team rosters quite easily. The full screen view here is much better than what is found on most fantasy platforms and will thus be a go-to on your draft day.
Supported Platforms for Draft Sync
So, you're playing in a lot of leagues scattered over a lot of fantasy platforms. That can make for a team management nightmare, but that won't be the case if you use the RotoWire Live Draft Sync that is available through the RotoWire fantasy football draft kit.
With this tool, you can import leagues from any of the most popular fantasy football platforms. This list includes ESPN, Yahoo, Sleeper, CBS, NFL.com, Fantrax, NFFC, MFFL and more. This is a wide-ranging list that covers almost all types of leagues. The main requirement here is that you will need to login to your accounts via the RotoWire browser extension, but that is something that you can do securely through your browser's password manager.
How to Connect Your League to the Draft Assistant
Here is a step-by-step walkthrough of how to connect your league to the RotoWire Draft Assistant.
- Log in to your RotoWire account.
- Access the Draft Assistant tool.
- Select your league platform and scoring format.
- Authorize connection or log in to your fantasy provider.
- Confirm that the live draft board is populating in the Assistant.
You can wait until right before the draft to do all of this, but it's always a good idea to check all of this at least an hour before the draft clock is ready to start ticking. That will also give you some time to get familiar with the user-friendly RotoWire Draft Assistant interface and review the latest fantasy football rankings.
Advantages of Real-Time Player Updates and Recommendations
There are many advantages that real-time sync gives fantasy managers. You get instant recommendations that are based on which players are still available, ADP shifts, roster needs and expert rankings.
If you practice with the RotoWire mock draft simulator before draft day, you can also get a feel for how this works before draft day rolls around. This can save you many precious seconds when the clock is ticking – seconds that can help you make the best picks under pressure.
Another thing to keep in mind regarding the Live Draft Sync is that by going this route, you will only need to master one draft-day interface. That familiarity means you won't have to figure out where every feature is nested on each fantasy football platform.
That familiarity is so important to making draft day go smoothly. It's why once you use Live Draft Sync with the RotoWire Draft Assistant, you'll find it difficult to draft any other way. Sign up for a RotoWire subscription and get ready for your draft today.
