Sleeper Platform

[kmbryant09]

Can you set sleeper to used the highest scoring players rather than the actual played player to determine draft order? To keep players from tanking?

I don't believe so. Currently, they don't track some of those "advanced" metrics like All-Play record, Potential Points Scored, etc.

I reached out to their support team via Twitter, and they were extremely responsive - very impressive. They confirmed they were looking to implement features such as All-Play record later this year, but it's unlikely to be ready for the start of the season.

Actually you can. If you see the below SS it shows points formed and max points formed (this number would be what you would have scored assuming it's a best ball league and your best scoring players were always active). Well you can't have it auto set it, but you can assign your draft positions yourself using this. I believe this is only available to see on mobile, and not desktop

That would work if the max is displayed for the SF leagues.

Have been messing around with Sleeper and I actually really like it. Thinking we may move our league from ESPN. The dynasty support pretty much sealed it for us. Will take some time adjusting to the format but it seems to be really user friendly. The projections look a little squirrelly right now but hopefully those will get better with time.

Good read thus far. I'm looking into making the move to Sleeper next season. I keep hearing positive things.

Does sleeper have the option to set up a "bestball" type league?

[UATahoe]

So far everybody in my league has preferred it over ESPN. Still havent been able to get a good feel on their source for projection data but i will probably rely on outside data to make those calls anyways. LOL. The interface is much better than ESPN and everything has been fairly intuitive. Their IR systems on sleeper is a little off right now so we closed down the IR slots until a little closer to the season. Right now they have guys who arent on teams or suspended on IR.

Drafting I think is harder on sleeper but I love everything else about it so far I just started 2 leagues on it. Definitely allows for more communication between owners and creates a lot more talk with how the group chat sets up

Can you set a custom schedule with double or even triple headers?

Can u set basic scoring rules like QB INTs, PPR, etc.?

Can u trade future draft picks?

Is the app free?

Not sure on the schedule part but yes to everything else.

If anyone can confirm the custom scheduling question CoD posted, that’d be great. The ability to play a full double-round-robin schedule would definitely be a dealbreaker for my league moving to another platform. That was why we ultimately ruled out RSO, despite being very impressed with their auction room and salary negotiation AI.

Yup, I'm running the free Early Birds Special league on MFL and just had to fork over $80 for the 2019 fees, and now mist collect $5 from each of the 15 other league members.

If we could do a custom schedule on Sleeper, there would be NO technical obstacle to moving to Sleeper.

However, our custom schedule is an absolute freak of nature. It took me over 3 hours to write the code for it. It would give Bill Gates a hard on if he had the equipment for it.

So I doing Sleeper would support what I've drawn up, even if Sleeper does allow some forms of customization.

Switched a league from Fantrax to sleeper

Only complaint this far has been that blind bid waivers can only be done on a daily basis in the offseason, not weekly

Edit: I don't believe doubleheaders sleeper does. Just 1v1 whatever weekly schedule you want

I did a custom schedule in Sleeper. Just have to manually enter each week's of matchups via click and drag to swap. It wasn't hard

Settings - commish- schedule matchups

Can you set a custom schedule with double or even triple headers? - You can create a custom schedule, it allows you to manually adjust any weekly matchup to create your own schedule. I believe you can set it up to have double-headers as well, but not sure about triple headers.

Can u set basic scoring rules like QB INTs, PPR, etc.? Yes, they have a pretty complete set of scoring rules that you can customize freely.

Can u trade future draft picks? Yes.

Is the app free? Yes, with no ads.
