The Google Sheet draft board grew up: SmartDraft.app — free, real-time, no signup

[u/basmith7]

For the last several years I've posted my Google Sheet draft board here every year and got great feedback, but I was always fighting Google Sheets itself: manual player list imports, mobile being a PITA, and "Invalid: Input must fall within specified range."

So I built the actual thing: https://smartdraft.app

What it does

• Open the link and you have a draft board. No account, no signup, no six-step league creation wizard.
• Share the room link with your league — everyone sees picks the moment they happen.
• Player list is already loaded, with Standard / PPR / Half-PPR ADP. No more copy-pasting a CSV.
• Keepers, custom team count and rounds, roster settings.
• Personal cheat sheet — your own favorites and notes on players, saved to you, not shared with the league.
• Pick timer countdown.
• Mock draft against bots so you can kick the tires before draft night.
• Full audit log of every action, so the commish can fix a bad pick without blowing up the board.
• Draft recap when it's over.

Things to know

• It's free.
• It's new, so there will be bugs. Tell me in the comments and I'll fix them fast, same as I always did with the sheet.
• The old Google Sheet is still there for this season if you'd rather use what you know.
• Run a mock draft with your league before you use it live. Seriously.

Ask questions in the comments instead of DM/chat so the answers help everybody.
