Sunday Seven

Seven players, $70 cap. One QB, two RB, two WR, one TE, and a flex that can be any RB, WR or TE.

Scoring is the fantasy scoring you already know. Passing: 1 point per 25 yards, 4 per TD, −2 per interception. Rushing and receiving: 1 point per 10 yards, 6 per TD, half a point per catch. −2 for a lost fumble.

Your lineup locks when you submit it, and only games that kick off after you submit will score. Submit early to get the full slate.

New lineup every week. The board resets, so a bad week is just a bad week.

Free to play. No entry fee, no wagering, no prizes with cash value — just the leaderboard.

The player pool isn't hand-picked. It's generated from real production. We read ESPN's season leaderboards for passing, rushing and receiving yards, then rank players within their own position — so a tight end is priced against other tight ends, not against wide receivers. The pool is regenerated each season, which is why the teams shown are current rather than whatever we remembered.

Salaries follow that ranking. Top few at a position cost the most, the next tier less, and so on. The order comes from production, not opinion. The cap is set so it genuinely binds — you can't afford every star, which is the whole game.

Scoring reads the official box score. Every point comes from ESPN's per-player box score for that game — yards, touchdowns, receptions, interceptions and fumbles. We read each stat by its label rather than its column position, so a change in how ESPN orders the columns can't silently shift your score.

Only games that start after you submit count. That's what makes it fair: nobody can bank a player's big afternoon after the fact. Submit early to get the full slate.

Some entrants are house bots, and they're labelled. Anyone shown with a 🤖 is one of ours, drafting under exactly the same cap and rules. They're there so the board is never empty — and beating them is the point.
