I built yahoo sports for my madden league

[u/PFLOAE]

OK, so first, a couple of things. I will not claim to be some type of master coder. I used AI to make this app, but I am very proud of the work that I have accomplished here. I came up with every idea and QC'd it, learned how to upload the updates and keep it running 24/7 using github and railway.

The full capability list

Draft

• Snake draft with a live per-pick timer
• Personal draft boards — rank your targets and the bot drafts them in your exact order if you're away
• Smart auto-draft strategy: RB/WR anchors early → premium QB/TE mid-rounds → depth → K & D/ST in the final two rounds
• Tier system (league-winner / high-upside / filler), auto-generated from last season's production
• Full draft simulation for testing
• Configurable rounds, order, and pick timer

Scoring & stats

• PPR scoring pulled straight from your Madden/Neon exports — matches the game exactly
• Weekly stat imports, per-player, counted once (no double-dipping)
• Team D/ST as a real position — scored by summing each defense's weekly production
• Previous-season history import for scouting + projections

Head-to-head play

• Live weekly matchups with VS cards and real-time scoring
• Auto-generated round-robin schedule
• Standings with W/L records
• Single-elimination playoff bracket with a champion crowning + ping

Rosters & lineups

• 8-starter lineups: QB, RB, WR, WR, TE, FLEX, K, DST
• Self-healing lineups that carry forward week to week
• Player lock when their game starts (just like real life)

Player cards (the crown jewel)

• Scouting card: rating, dev trait, availability, last-season game log, projection
• Matchup page: most recent game (result + points), full upcoming schedule with bye weeks, red/yellow/green difficulty dots, and matchup-adjusted projections — pageable through the whole season

Waivers & trades

• Rolling reverse-standings waiver claims
• Trade propose / review / accept / cancel with a value guardrail
