I made this over the last couple of weeks and figured this sub might get a kick out of it. It's free, no ads, no signup, no email. Made it because I wanted an excuse to mess with historical ADP data.

**How it works:** a wheel spins and lands on a real NFL team-season — 2006 Chargers, 2018 Seahawks, whatever. You sign one player from that roster and you keep his actual PPR season, every point he really scored. Seven spins, and you're filling QB / RB / RB / WR / WR / TE / FLEX.

**The catch is the draft board.** Every player also costs you the round he actually went in that year. You can only use each round once, so you can't roster two 1st-rounders. Later picks can move *up* into an open earlier round, never down — so a 6th rounder is flexible and a 1st rounder is rigid. Guys who went undrafted that August fit anywhere, which means the waiver-wire heroes are quietly the best value in the game.

So landing on the 2006 Chargers is great until you realize LT's 481-point season eats your only round-1 slot for the whole draft.

**Two modes.** Normal shows you each player's finish before you pick. Hard mode hides it — you get the name, the team, the year, and the ADP round, and you draft on what you actually remember. Hard mode is the real version.

**On the data,** since I know this sub cares: season stats are from nflverse play-by-play (regular season, full PPR). ADP is MyFantasyLeague for 2000-2013 and FantasyPros for 2014-2025, 12-team leagues. At the end it scores your total, tells you what percentile you landed in against 5,000 simulated drafts, converts that to a record, and shows you the best lineup those exact seven boards would have allowed — which is usually a humbling experience.

Happy to hear what's broken or what would make it better. Genuinely curious what scores people get in hard mode.

Love the ZenGM games and soccer so I attempted to make a soccer version :). I am a web developer by trade so don't worry this is not another vibe-coded draft game lol.

Thought this Cowboys-only run had 20-0 written all over it.

99 team power, no weak links, and one loss still came down to a single possession. What would you change?

For anyone asking, this is 20-0.football, not others. I’ve been using this one because the results feel more detailed and consistent.

I love gambling my players away for picks

Rn, the only metrics secondary players are measured by are tackles and TFL (which they usually don't get much of), Interceptions and deflections, and fumbles and sacks. The problem is that the variations in these stats year to year make the all-star and all-league selections fickle, so elite corners/safeties will only make teams sporadically or not at all. Not sure why, but what happens often is that a secondary player will have a breakout year, and the games QB won't "target" them as heavily in subsequent years, so they'll never get as many picks or deflections.

For example, I have a top 3 corner by overall, yet he's only made 1 all-star or all-league team...as a rookie

To "fix" this, I suggest a "catches allowed" and "Touchdowns allowed" stat? when watching games, it would let you know who is guarding a receiver on any given catch (could just sort by overall, so best DB always on best WR) and when playing ordinarily, it'd allow elite corners and safeties... to feel elite and be worth keeping when their rookie contracts expire.
