It\u2019s fantasy football season! For the next few months, millions of people will compete to be the smartest football thinker in their friend group. We\u2019ll spend hours (too many hours) looking for sleepers, learning the names and play styles of guys who will never even sniff the field, and having such strong attachment to their play that the NFL players will occasionally have to remind us<\/a> that there\u2019s actually, like, real <\/em>football happening out here, too.<\/p>\n

But all you want is to win your league. So I\u2019m here to help: With the right apps and platforms, you can spend the next few months diving deep into all the news, stats, and information you\u2019ll need to crush your fantasy competition into oblivion. <\/p>\n

You know, in a fun way. Go team! Let\u2019s get into it.<\/p>\n

Hang on, what is fantasy football again?<\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s football. It\u2019s also gambling, kind of? You pick players; if those players do well, you win. And you get to subject your friends to hilarious punishments<\/a> if they come in last place.<\/p>\n

There are countless different ways to play fantasy football, but you only really need to know about two: draft leagues and daily fantasy. In a draft league, you pick a team of players and keep them all season. In daily fantasy, you pick a new set of players every week. There are countless permutations of these, too \u2014 plus dynasty leagues and keeper leagues and playoff leagues and a million others \u2014 but we\u2019re not going to get into all of that here. We\u2019re definitely <\/em>not going to get into the NFL\u2019s blockchain fantasy game<\/a>.<\/p>\n
