The Top 18 FREE Fantasy Football Draft Tools You Must Use
Free Fantasy Football draft tools just makes your life easier. There are so many great Fantasy Football sites out there, sometimes it’s tough to filter through them and find the best of everything. That’s where I come in! The following links take you to the top 13 FREE Fantasy Football Draft tools that I think will help you the most. There are some tools out there that are similar, and I discuss that in some cases, but for my money, these are my favorites!

(Updated on Aug. 22: I added FIVE BONUS TOOLS at the end that a few people have sent me after this was posted, including a “trade rater” tool that you’ll love — even when you aren’t making any trades, at TradeDebate.com. So consider this a Baker’s Dozen Tools from a baker with poor counting skills.)

FootballGuys.com Depth Charts
There are plenty of sets of depth charts out there, but I like these the best. No frills, color coded – and you don’t have to go to a different page for every team. They do a great job keeping them up to date, as well.
FantasyFootballCalculator.com Scenario Calculator
Ready to have your mind blown? Plug in which draft pick you are targeting a specific player and it magically spits out the probability percentages of that player being available to you. For instance, with the 4.04 pick in a 12-team PPR league, I have an 80-percent chance of seeing Jordy Nelson available to me, but only a 44-percent chance of getting Dez Bryant. (I played with this for about an hour today!)
FFToolbox.com Fantasy Strength of Schedule
Take a look at which positions face the toughest defenses (against that particular position). For instance, it’s great to know that the Falcons have the easiest schedule for a quarterback AND their running backs. On the other hand, Tom Brady’s facing the toughest pass defenses during the Fantasy season (weeks 1-16). I love that you can adjust what weeks it’s looking at, too. Shonn Greene could frustrate his owners once again in the first five weeks, especially since he’s facing the toughest rush defenses of anyone. But for Weeks 11-15, he’s facing the ninth-easiest schedule for RBs. This is definitely one of my favorite free Fantasy Football draft tools.
DraftCalc.com Draft Pick Trade Calculator
There are a few different draft pick trade calculators out there, but I like this one for telling you which side is better by a certain percentage percent. That way, you know how close you are to making a solid deal. This site also has a trade calculator for dynasty players.
