Football Programs
This is a collection of tools I've written to assist in the management of Fanatasy Football and EA Sport's Madden Fooball leagues.

2003 Player Import (download - 14K)
While the DraftDay program is getting it's upgrades for 2003, feel free to continue using the 2002 version with the new roster file. Includes all of the VBD values you need to evaluate players and allow the computer to draft as well.

Don't like my projections? Change the values as you see fit and import it into the program. Also remember that you can fill in team names under the Keeper column to have them automatically flagged to the correct team.

DraftDay2002 ver 1.3(download - 2.1MB)
Update of the DraftDay toolset for the 2002 season.

Create a league of owners, teams, and a default NFL player roster to chart the round-by-round drafting of up to 12 Fantasy Football teams.

Use the VBD values in your roster and the built-in rulesets to suggest or draft for owners who are unable to be there in person. (Not recommended if you actually want a good team.)

Use those same rules to create and maintain multiple mock drafts using the same default teams and players. Then save the whole thing down for future study and sorting.

Feel free to download the results of our league's draft completed on August 17th, 2002. Good sample of a 12-man keeper draft. (download - 65k)

Program History

August 18, 2002     Initial Release
True release of the program. It currently includes all of the features it needs to create a league, maintain multiple drafts, auto-draft for players or conduct "mock" drafts, and export the draft results to a comma delimited "csv" file for spreadsheet analysis. Please report any bugs you find to the email below.

August 17, 2002     Beta Fixes
Fixed a bug with the "Give Player" button. Also added the ability to assign a player to a team from the Default player list, allowing for keepers to be set up and changed before a draft is created.

August 15, 2002     Final Beta Release
Fixed a few bugs, and added the ability to add and update players within the program. Still has a bug when trying to load one league over top of another. Don't do that. If you want to load a new league, close the program and open it up again.

This will be the final release until next week, at which point, export features will be added to drop any of your drafts into a spreadsheet for sorting or printing. Any league files that you create now will still work with the newer updates, so draft all you want.

August 10, 2002     Initial Beta Release
Initial beta release. A majority of the functionality is in place. Minor issues to resolve. Expected completion date is Aug 14th. (A few days before our draft.)


What's New:

- Draft clock.
- Improved draft board.
- Maintain multiple drafts within the same league for those who wish to conduct mock-drafts.
- Removed the custom owner rules as they were too confusing to most. The auto-draft now uses a standard set of rules for everyone.
- Import of rosters and draft order.

June 2002           Under Development

Still under development. Feel free to email comments and suggestions.

Features include:

- Import features for roster and draftorder .csv spreadsheet files. Drop your favorite cheatsheet information and current draft order into the provided sample files and import them directly into the league file. The program will handle the creation of the team names and players automatically, including assigning keepers.

- Variable draft clock to time the rounds. Set the number of minutes each team receives, and start the countdown. Clock can be reset at the push of a button, or paused by clicking the time.

- Trade picks and players on the fly to handle any draft-day shenanigans. Any player or pick may be assigned to any team during the draft, in case someone decides to get creative and perform conditional trades.



- Color-coded draftboard showing everyone at a glance who has sold themselves short at a particular position.

- Full sorting of players and picks by team, position, round, bye-week, etc...

- Completely resizeable draft window optimized for a 640x480 display. Useful for laptops with video output to a bigscreen.
