Why DraftEdge

Anyone can optimize.

Max projection under the cap is a solved problem; every optimizer does that math. What separates us is the filter after the math. Every lineup we build is scored against the lineups that actually finished at the top of past DraftKings and FanDuel slates, so you keep the shapes that have proven they hit and drop the ones that only look good on paper.

  • Scored against top finishersStack shape, salary spread, team split, value plays: every lineup carries a pattern score built from past top-finishing lineups, with the full breakdown on the card. Sort by it, filter the pile, export what fits.
  • Props with the matchup attachedEvery prop carries our projection, what the opponent allows per game for that exact stat and where that ranks, and the player's last 5, 10 and 15 games with how often they cleared the line in each.
  • Graded after the gamesLineups you build are stored and graded on real DraftKings and FanDuel points once the games go final, and the best builds of the day make the leaderboard.
