Underdog Draft Assistant

THE SOLVER Draft Assistant is a browser extension designed for (Underdog Playoff Best Ball, Underdog Fantasy's Battle Royale contests and Underdog NBA Daily Drafts), enhancing your drafting process in hybrid snake-draft and DFS-style tournaments. It offers real-time insights such as player rankings (BETA), your ownership from drafts you’ve done so far, and a projection for what percentage of drafts a player will be taken in.

Underdog’s Battle Royale format is a hybrid of DFS and snake drafts. Drafts are six to ten rounds depending on format, and the rosters vary by format as well. It’s important to get accustomed to the specific game format before drafting. Some of our features include:

Injury Assumptions

We are making our best guesses on injuries, and the rankings, projections, and simulations all flow through from that guess. So, if we project a questionable player to be IN, everything follows from that assumption. It’s up to you as a drafter to decide if you want to take that risk and draft this player where we have them ranked or to potentially boost this player’s teammates who may benefit if the player ends up OUT.
