### 3/5 — The content is great but the app will not stay synced

*2026-04-16*

The app is easy to navigate, and the content is pretty good.  The main issue is you spend way too much time deleting and reading your leagues to your account in hopes that “this time” it will sync correctly.  

The mock draft function will work well for 2 days then break and not sync for a few days all at random.  Going to the team dashboard may just sit and spin for hours and never sync correctly.

Awesome rankings and analyzers plus articles, but half-assed other functionality.

### 3/5 — Good when it works

*2026-03-16, version 3.52*

The app is pretty solid and the rankings seem to be good, but the last month or so the app and site have issue staying synced, using the correct draft order, or working at times. 

No amount of redownloading or  re-syncing leagues changes anything.  Might work for a day or two, then back to errors.

The articles are pretty good though.

### 2/5 — No draft pick trading

*2025-11-24, version 3.49*

Wanted to use for my dynasty leagues but not draft pick trading in the analyzer.

### 3/5 — Sleeper

*2025-11-18, version 3.49*

Went to resync my leagues, had the sign in pop up for my sleeper league (like normal 😒)  and it glitched and deleted my league. Now it won’t let me resync my sleeper league.

### 4/5 — Accurate Data but Sync Issues

*2025-10-29, version 3.49*

While the data seems to be mostly accurate and helpful, it is painful trying to keep my leagues consistently synced with the app. It takes a long time to synce and often times fails. I have to then delete my league and re-add it.

### 1/5 — Don’t buy

*2025-10-05, version 3.44*

Used the draft tools and the team intel every week so far and I’m a combined 2-13 in my leagues so thanks draft sharks.

### 1/5 — Disappointed user

*2025-09-28, version 3.44*

I’ve used draft sharks for a couple years now. I’d love to support a business from my hometown, Rochester, but this app has never ever helped my fantasy choices. My teams are now 1-3 and 0-4 using draft sharks guidance. Draft sharks caused the drafter to change trends rather than make strategic choices. Or maybe I am just really bad at fantasy. Either way this is my last year using this service.

### 1/5 — 2 years of disappointments.

*2025-09-21, version 3.44*

Used them to draft my teams and their rankings are way off.  Won’t use again.

### 3/5 — Multiple teams

*2025-09-20, version 3.44*

I didn’t have any issues last year with syncing having multiple teams. This year I’m in 10 leagues and have all of them on draft sharks. When I try to update all leagues I an issue syncing updates. It’ll tell me to delete or resync league. Which I’ve done. I continue to have the issue. Please fix this asap.

### 1/5 — Outdated

*2025-09-14, version 3.44*

This app needs a serious update or another developer

### 2/5 — Poorly built App

*2025-09-09, version 3.44*

Terrible

### 1/5 — Lags does not keep up with drafting

*2025-09-09, version 3.44*

$18 not worth it. Lags does not keep up with drafting, where is the player updates and situational player for player which to start

### 3/5 — Week 1

*2025-09-07, version 3.44*

Three leagues. Starting 0-3. Got crushed in every league..

### 1/5 — The older app was great

*2025-09-07, version 3.44*

New App missing many features and just way too many glitches.  Like suggesting kickers to draft  way too early.  I really miss the injury info on players,

### 1/5 — Bait and switch

*2025-09-07, version 3.44*

When you do this, they tell you that you can do the live draft from their platform.   But it didn’t work like that.  All you could do is look at their stuff and then have to go back to your regular draft to draft. It was really stupid and hard

### 4/5 — Updating My review

*2025-09-06, version 3.44*

Sync draft doesn’t update pick by pick, but once my pick arrived after a couple of refreshes it did update, a lot of great info so i am
upgrading this to a 4 stars.

### 1/5 — Buyer Beware

*2025-09-04, version 3.44*

Used this draft app for two drafts this year - crashed in the middle of both drafts. Couldn’t get it to work again either time. They did give me a refund after the first incident with free membership for a year which was cool. Figured I’d give them the benefit of the doubt and tried  it again for a Dynasty draft and it crashed again, right in the middle of the draft when you need it the most.  I had a back-up plan for the second draft , if you use this app for a live draft, you’ll need a back up plan too.

### 2/5 — Was having issues on my draft day, had to switch to desktop

*2025-09-03, version 3.44*

Liked last years draft version better. Also liked the website version last year. Whoever is the product manager of the draft redesign should take some courses on UX/UI. 

Also bottom menu buttons won’t be relevant for in-season play/tools. They’re all buried in sub menus. No one needs the mock draft and draft war room buttons after this week.

Don’t feel I’m getting much value after draft day.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Mock draft is broken

*2026-07-19, version 4.01*

I love the Draft Sharks experience online, but the app has issues. Mock draft doesn’t record your roster correctly (5 picks in, it only shows 4), after every pick I get an error pop-up that has to be closed every time), and the app doesn’t respond (just spins and spins) when you try to run a 2nd mock draft.

I have faith they’ll get it working but right now, it’s useless.

### 1/5 — Mock draft issue

*2026-07-17, version 4.00*

Would be an awesome app (and website) for mock drafts. However, after you do one mock draft, whenever you try to do another one it just sits there spinning “simulating draft” but never loads. This issue is happening both on the app and the website.

### 1/5 — Mock Draft Glitchy

*2026-07-12, version 4.00*

After one or two times using the draft simulator I always have to delete the app and redownload for it to function.

### 1/5 — Finished 9th place

*2025-12-27*

I’m the commish in a 10 man PPR league. Been going on 5 years now and I have even won my league 2 years ago. This year being our 5th year we upped the buy in to $100. Top 3 get payouts. With it being a bigger pot than before I decided to get draft sharks because I have read great reviews and thought they would help give me a competitive edge, especially with the war room draft help. Wow was I wrong. Followed every draft advice selection for my league format and who they rated as the higher player over other. I even followed advice on players I knew were going to be a bust, but I figured since this is such a trusted site I might as well go all in and listen and follow the guidance they offered. And people, trust me I know no one knows what’s going to happen with fantasy. I’ve been player for years, but I’m pretty sure Helen Keller could have drafted my team better than this group. We are in last round of playoffs right now and I’m battling for the 9th and 10th position. I will not and would not recommend this site or these people to anyone for any fantasy purposes.

### 1/5 — Didn’t sync my draft

*2025-11-23, version 3.49*

Just doesn’t work during my draft. Very weird

### 1/5 — Used to Be Good

*2025-11-10, version 3.49*

I have used Draft Sharks for 10 years. They used to have great research, but I’m using a new service next year after poor finishes (using their intel) the last four years.

### 1/5 — Hard to Use

*2025-11-09, version 3.49*

I spent way too much time trying to sync my league once I got it synced I tried to use the lineup tool with the instructions that say “this tool couldn’t be easier to use”. 

Then the instructions say enter all your league information like PPR and Superflex, etc..  

My question is if my team is already synced, can’t they see that information? Why do I have to re-enter it?

Then it wants me to enter different player names. I’m like what the f am I using this for? If it can’t read, the names of my players to my Sleeper app then what the f are we doing here?  

I have been using Fantasy Pros and just wanted to see if Draft Sharks could give me an edge, but I can’t even get it off the ground. When they say this tool couldn’t be easier to use whoever wrote that doesn’t know what they are talking about. 

I canceled it a day after subscribing and I would highly suggest FantasyPros because it’s just a superior product. Point blank.

Instead of draft sharks that should call it draft donkeys

### 1/5 — Bad advice and even worse pricing

*2025-10-27, version 3.49*

Don’t fall for their paid model, you can auto draft with equal success. They do the same song and dance as all other advice providers by ranking and suggesting a safe list that agrees with the rest of the ‘experts’ in the industry. Save your money and use free advice on other platforms.

### 1/5 — Just a tool but not a sharp one

*2025-10-09*

Loaded this for the first time this year. While it looks fancy, it is nowhere near as robust as it needs to be to actually help someone. The draft suggestions are based on old data sets it seems. Constantly have to manually refresh during draft (we only get a minute per spot) so it needs to be quicker. 

My main complaint is the ai reasoning. It makes draft/waiver wire suggestions that make no sense. For example, i have only one te and it is constantly telling me to drop the te and get a higher proj wr. If you follow through you have no TE on the roster. The suggestions seem to be the same whether you are in a 10 or 12 man league. 

It also never takes into consideration real league trends. Arizona is a mess but it keeps saying to pick up murray even though he is mid at best and other higher point/hot hand qb’s are still available. 

There is no direct correlation to starting suggestions based on anything but aggregate projection numbers and we all know those are all amiss. 

You are better off just reading some weekly articles and going with your gut. 🤷‍♂️

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2025-10-06, version 3.44*

Used draft sharks for first time this year.  App never synced with my draft so I had to use manual mode.  After 5 weeks of the season, I do not think this app made best recommendations for my draft.   Canceled subscription.  Will go back to rotowire next season.  Would give 0 stars if I could.

### 5/5 — The Best Fantasy Football Edge I’ve Found

*2026-08-19*

I can’t recommend Draft Sharks highly enough. I’ve used them for the past couple of seasons, and the results have been outstanding.

What really separates them from other fantasy football sites is that the advice actually feels actionable. The rankings, draft tools, and analysis help you make decisions rather than just throwing an overwhelming amount of information at you. Their recommendations have helped me find value during drafts, make better lineup decisions, and avoid some of the mistakes I probably would have made on my own.

Their customer service has also been exceptional. Shane has personally taken the time to answer my questions and give thoughtful advice, which is pretty remarkable considering this is a fantasy football service and not some high-priced personal consulting relationship.

Most importantly, I’ve won my league in back-to-back seasons while using Draft Sharks. Obviously no fantasy service can guarantee results, but they’ve absolutely given me an edge.

If you’re serious about fantasy football and want something that goes beyond generic rankings and projections, Draft Sharks is worth every penny. Five stars without hesitation.

### 5/5 — Sit back, relax, and do your job… Let these guys do your fantasy!

*2026-02-14, version 3.52*

Best dynasty app you can ever get. These sharks are on top of everything and giving optimal advice for Dynasty leagues as well as re-draft leagues. If you want to win your league, focus on the free agents when they tell you to go after them :-) thanks Draft Sharks for everything y’all do.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2025-08-22*

I do not have the time to put in to research fantasy football and stay competitive.I got DS like 4 or 5 years ago and just do exactly what they tell me during draft and free agency. Because of that I have won two Super Bowls, have made the playoffs in all three of my leagues every year except for one league once, and that year I was one of the highest scoring teams. I just had bad luck with the matchups.

### 5/5 — Problem fetching leagues from mobile app

*2025-08-15*

I hate to say this but i am not able to sync the leagues, as soon as i fetch the espn league it crashes and does nothing

### 5/5 — Great start for 2025

*2025-07-27, version 3.37*

New to the site but so far I have really enjoyed it

### 5/5 — Great App

*2025-07-26, version 3.37*

The app is very self intuitive and easy to use. Haven’t drafted yet but I have lots of confidence in the raking methodology DSF uses

### 5/5 — Exceptional

*2025-03-07, version 3.34*

I say exceptional, because this App has definitely gone above and and beyond of what’s expected from a fantasy Football level. I won a fantasy football championship due to this app, and I Definitely recommend it to anyone trying to gain that extra level of competitive Edge.

### 5/5 — AWESOME DYNASTY ADVICE!!!

*2025-03-05, version 3.34*

Let me start by saying I literally went from worst last season to winning my league with the advice from these guys they are good at their jobs and I really don’t want the word out because I like winning and they truly give me an unfair advantage as they say lol…

### 5/5 — Champion two years in a row

*2024-12-31, version 3.33*

I’ve never written an app review before, but I just won my league championship for the second straight year using Draft Sharks and felt compelled to share. Their data and analysis are unmatched.

### 5/5 — Good rankings, but app failed during draft

*2024-12-21, version 3.33*

EDIT:  rerated to 5 stars.  I contacted their organization, and they immediately made me whole on the issue. I plan to use their service again next season. 

———

I’ve drafted with this app for two years. The connectivity with Yahoo during my first year’s draft was very helpful, and ended up with some very strong players in later rounds. HOWEVER, during my more recent draft, the website bombed out and I ended up mostly drafting on my own after round 6.  When I contacted the company, I received an explanation of the problem, but no apology, or any type of remedy for my lack of use of the most important time. 

I’m on the fence about using them next year.
