Free Fantasy Football Commissioner Tools

Thursday, Aug 9, 2018 at 12:00 pm ET


When I was in 5th grade, my teacher asked me what I wanted to do when I grew up. I said that I'd like to be retired. She suggested that I have a backup plan, so I said fantasy football commissioner. For some reason, nobody ever asked me about my career plans again...

Being the fantasy football commissioner is a dream job. You get to make the rules, enforce them, mediate disputes, organize the draft, and bask in the glory of a job well done while earning an incredible salary at the same time!

OK - maybe not...

Let's face it. Being the commish is never all that it's cracked up to be. In fact, it's often a thankless job, but it's also crucial to a really good league. Whether you are the commish or you simply want to do a solid for your league's commissioner, check out the special tools on Fantasy Nerds just for your league's version of Roger Goodell.

Free Commissioner Tools

Draft Date PickerDraft Date Picker
Every commissioner runs into this issue eventually. When should we hold our fantasy football draft? Instead of trying to juggle everyone's schedule and emails bouncing back and forth, use the free Draft Date Picker from FantasyNerds.com. Simply add your draft details, select a bunch of possible dates, send your custom link to your league, and let everyone mark down which dates work and which don't.
Random Draft OrderRandom Draft Order Tool
If you are looking for an unbiased, third-party tool to generate the draft order for your league, this is the tool that you are looking for. Tell us who is in your league and when you want us to randomize the draft order, and we'll give you a link to share with your league so that everyone can tune in together and see the results.
Trade AnalyzerTrade Analyzer
The commish holds veto power on any trade that looks sketchy, but if he/she actually uses veto power, prepare for a backlash. Use the Fantasy Nerds Trade Analyzer as an unbiased tool to show just how lopsided that trade really is.


It may be a thankless job, but somebody's got to do it, right? We're here to make the job of being commissioner just a bit easier.

Thank you for these tools. Our league uses them every year.

Yep. I have used all of these and can say that I love the fact that anyone can use them. It makes being the commissioner much easier. Can you handle league payments too? LOL

Our league does a lot of trading and you can imagine the complaints that come from that. I use your trade analyzer to make sure trades arent crazy lopsided. Have to share: I rarely get any pushback when I use the tool. Most guys look at it before they do a trade because they know that im going to. Saves me time. ANyway, very cool.

Being able to schedule our draft order is freaking awesome. Half the league lives on the west coast and the rest of us live on the east coast. The whole league tunes in for the draft order on Zoom and it is literally the start of our season. Thanks boys!

Doing the draft date was always a pain. Please keep this tool free. It is so awesome.

Happy 4th of July! I use the draft order tool each year now and we do a big party at one of the guys house where we watch the draft order get revealed live. It is now an annual tradition.

Ha. Everyone in my league looks forward to the emails telling them to pick their dates cuz it means that the fantasy football season is here! Seriously thank you Nerds for putting out such awesome tools.
