Football Draft Game: How It Works and How to Go 17-0

A football draft game lets you build a dream team from real rosters and then plays a full season with it. The goal: the perfect 17-0 season.

How the draft works

1. Spin the wheel – you get a random pro football team from a random season between 2006 and 2025.
2. Pick one player from that roster for an open spot: QB, RB, two WRs, TE, two on the defensive line, LB, CB, S and a kicker.
3. Repeat until all 11 spots are filled. Player ratings stay hidden – your football knowledge decides.

The season

Your 11 stars play 17 games against today's teams, then the playoffs – wild card, divisional round, conference final and the big game. Every game comes with a box score, touchdowns, field goals and a player of the game.

Game modes

• Daily draft – the same spins for everyone, with a worldwide leaderboard.
• Franchise mode – the all-time team of one franchise.
• Era mode – only players from one era or a single season.
• Salary cap – every player has a price: stars or depth?
• Challenge codes – share a code and your friends get exactly the same spins.

Tips for going 17-0

• A great QB matters most – take one early if you see him.
• Use your jokers on weak teams, not on good teams with a missing position.
• Defense wins in the playoffs: don't fill the defensive line with backups.
