Frequently asked questions
Which file do I upload?
The DraftKings salaries CSV for the slate you are entering. Nothing is uploaded to a server — it is read in your browser.
What roster does it build?
The classic slate: QB, two RB, three WR, TE, one FLEX (RB, WR or TE) and a team defense.
Can I pick individual defenders?
No. Like every major site, defense is drafted as a whole team unit, not as cornerbacks or linebackers.
What is the salary cap?
$50,000. Used and remaining salary stay on screen, and an illegal lineup is marked in red.
Why are cheap players ranked low?
Players priced below roughly $4,800 usually do not start, so their plausibility is discounted heavily on purpose.
Can I sort by more than one thing?
Yes. Choose My blend and rank two to five categories in preference order.
Does it guarantee a win?
No. These are estimates of a range of outcomes, and football does what it likes.
