Hoot Draft

Scrutinizer Code Quality Join the chat at https://gitter.im/mattheworres/phpdraft License: GPL v3

Hoot Draft makes running drafts for fantasy sports a real hoot! (dad jokes sold separately)


The color coded draft board with each pick being shown with a unique color background according to the player's position





Large color-coded draft board updates live during the draft and is made with large screens and projectors in mind!






The pick entry screen with LeBron James appearing in the dropdown after L E B R was typed in



Player autocomplete - don't waste time spelling names or picking teams and positions. Select a suggestion and get on with it!




The depth chart screen showing a fantasy team with each roster spot per row, the players assigned to that spot as well as green color coding suggesting all positions have been filled





Drag and drop depth charts for each team helps managers answer "What does my team need?" in a pinch!







A flip clock-style timer showing 3 minutes 31 seconds counting down


Every league has "that one" manager who spends way too much time choosing a kicker (come on, Kevin!) Keep it fair with customizable pick timers!




The trade entry screen showing two teams selected and one asset selected for each




Managers can wheel and deal their picks and their unselected future picks at any point while the draft is still ongoing!




Thats cool! What else does it do?

  • Support for: NFL (normal and extended rosters) NBA, MLB, NHL, and Super 15 (Rugby) sports!
  • Real time updates across all devices
  • Responsive design to enable mobile device support
  • Google Chromecast support

Ah crud, I don't know how to run a web server or anything like that!

I was thinking you'd say that...

No problem! Sign up for a free commissioner account on hootdraft.com and get drafting today! :-)
