Since DRAFT is no more, where is everyone playing best ball for 2020?

Also, anyone know when/if FanDuel will offer NFL best ball?

Curious about this too. When FanDuel acquired DRAFT (formerly MFL10s) they said best ball would be there:


https://newsroom.fanduel.com/2019/12...draft-in-2020/


No idea about a specific date.


As for other sites, I imagine Yahoo will offer best ball again (obv assuming we have a season); I don't like their flat payout structure but for low stakes per contest I might just suck it up.

A lot of people in the know have speculated that Fanduel will not have Best Balls and only bought Draft to acquire more customers for DFS and sports betting. I think they might but the reason people have said they won't is because it's not in their best interest since it's only raked once for the full season instead of DFS or sport betting which rakes every week.

I forget which but one of Fanduel or Draftkings bought another DFS site a few years back that had weekly snake drafts. They said they would incorporate those into their games the same way they said best balls would be but they never did since it takes longer to do a snake draft than create a salary cap team.

Starting to believe this is the case. I remember that and I think it was DK that made that announcement and it never happened with snake drafts.

Figured with all the COVID stuff going on they’d be pushing best ball hard right now....unless they think it will lessen the itch to play weekly once the season actually starts.

https://nfc.shgn.com/ NFC has a $150 draft championship with $25,000 for first, 35man rosters.

they also have a cool $150 tournament with $100,000 for first called the cutline which is best ball for first 9 weeks with waivers every 3 weeks and then a shootout format non-best ball style for weeks 10-16.

www.myffpc.com has $35-$77-$250 best ball satellites, the $250s workout to 6.66% rake if you take the tickets.
