A new ? button next to the Messages button on every site lets you send feedback or report a bug straight from wherever you're standing. It automatically creates a tracked issue for the commissioner, tagged with the site, page, and browser you were using — no need to describe your setup yourself.
A new 🏈 ESPN button in the Home header links straight to the league's ESPN Fantasy page — opens the ESPN app automatically if you have it installed on your phone, or the website otherwise.
Bookmarking any of the four sites to your phone's home screen now shows the actual ALO3 football icon, instead of falling back to a plain letter.
Star any player from the Players view to add them to your personal draft queue. A new "My Queue" sidebar lists your starred players in order — drag to reorder — and a player drops off the list automatically the moment they're drafted, by anyone.
The commissioner's "Undo Last Pick" button now actually works. It un-drafts the player, removes them from the team's roster, deletes the pick record, and puts that team back on the clock with a fresh timer — as if the pick never happened.
While you have a player selected, a bar now stays pinned to the bottom of the screen with your pick and a Confirm button, so you don't have to scroll back up to finish drafting.
Searching for a player who's already been drafted no longer just says "No players found." Drafted matches now show up greyed out with who took them, and if the commissioner tries to add one through Add Missing Player, they get a clear (overridable) warning listing every drafted player matching that name — instead of silently drafting a duplicate.
The auction wheel's spin and result were only ever visible on the commissioner's own screen. Everyone watching the board now sees the same spin animate and land on the same player.
Players added on the fly through "Add Missing Player" now get their photo looked up automatically too, the same way the bulk player import already does, instead of always showing a placeholder silhouette.
Once the draft wrapped up, the board would go blank as if every pick had disappeared. The picks were always safely saved — they just weren't being shown. The board now keeps showing the completed draft after it ends.
The chat feed now loads the most recent posts with a "Load older posts" button at the bottom, so the full history is reachable again once the league gets past ~60 posts.
The pick timer now counts down for everyone watching the board, not just the commissioner's screen.
The Home standings and Almanac pages no longer get stuck on a loading spinner when data is mid-update.
If it's your turn and you search for a player who isn't in the pool (never made the pre-draft import), a new "+ Add" tile now appears alongside your search results. Selecting it checks a synced FantasyPros player database for a match — pick one from the list, or fall back to a quick manual name/position entry if there's no match — and drafts them for a fixed $1, same as the commissioner's policy for anyone outside the priced pool. It flows through the board, cap, and drafted-player popup exactly like a normal pick.
When a pick is confirmed — whether in the expansion draft, the main draft, or an RFA auction win — everyone watching the site now sees a popup with the player's photo, position, and which team just drafted them. Photos are matched automatically from a public player database each time the player list is imported.
Expansion draft pick order now reverses each round (snake order) instead of repeating the same order every round, matching how the main draft already works.
Click any team's roster card to see an enlarged view of just that team: a position breakdown, contract years, and their remaining picks for the rest of this draft (capped to however many roster spots they actually have left). A "Back to All Rosters" button returns to the full grid.
The floating Messages button on the Draft Board wasn't signing you into Chat automatically, silently falling back to a signed-out view instead. It now carries your session over correctly, matching how it already works from other pages.
Toast notifications (like import confirmations) and the drafted-player popup could render behind the floating Messages button in the bottom-right corner. Both now correctly appear on top of it.
Switched the email service that delivers announcement, direct message, and daily digest notifications to a more reliable provider. No change to how or when you receive these emails — just fewer delivery hiccups behind the scenes.
Posts, comments, and direct messages now correctly display the name set in your profile, rather than defaulting to the name on your Google account. All historical content was retroactively updated to match.
A floating ✉ button in the bottom-right corner of every page opens a slide-in DM panel without leaving the current site. Unread message count is shown as a live badge on the button. On the Draft Board, you're signed in automatically; on other sites, your existing Chat session carries over.
Trades can now be processed at any point during the live draft, including Round 1 picks and any future round that hasn't yet been made. Trading options for the 2027 and 2028 draft seasons are also now available. If the pick currently on the clock is included in a trade, the active team banner and all pick-confirmation mechanics immediately reflect the new owner.
Trade indicators on the draft board were showing duplicate labels on swapped picks. Simplified to a single → Owner indicator on pick slots that have been traded away, and fixed an issue where a round-1 pick swap was incorrectly marking all subsequent rounds as traded.
The draft board header was restructured to match the layout of other sites: the shared site navigation sits at the top, with a secondary bar directly below combining the section tabs (Draft Board, Auction, Rosters, etc.) and the live draft status banner side by side.
Updated the team formerly known as "New B" to "Mike" across the draft board, rosters, trade history, and chat references. Legacy Firestore data using the old name is normalized automatically at load time.
Signing into Chat now automatically authenticates you on the Draft Board. Navigating between the two sites no longer requires a separate login step.
