Has potential, but nowhere near worth the price yet
I paid around $70 for the annual subscription and, at its current price, I’m pretty disappointed.
My biggest issue is dynasty. WalterPicks advertises dynasty support, but the actual dynasty capabilities feel extremely underdeveloped. If you’re managing a dynasty team and looking for deeper trade, roster and long-term analysis, there just isn’t much here compared with other fantasy subscriptions in this price range. That wasn’t clear to me before purchasing.
The mobile draft experience also needs a lot of work. The draft board is difficult to navigate, and switching between WalterPicks rankings and ADP is confusing. It becomes unnecessarily hard to tell where players are actually going versus where WalterPicks has them ranked. A paid draft tool should make a live draft easier to manage, not harder.
The recommendations and personalized insights are a cool idea, but a lot of that experience is already available in the free version. The paid features simply don’t feel substantial enough to justify the price. I also don’t necessarily agree with many of their rankings/recommendations, but rankings are subjective, so that’s more personal preference than a criticism of the app.
The biggest problem is value. For roughly the same annual price, there are established fantasy services offering much deeper dynasty tools, draft tools, league analysis, trade tools, customizable rankings and overall functionality.
There’s definitely potential here. I like the concept and some of the personalized recommendations, and I could see WalterPicks becoming a great product as it develops. But right now the paid version feels much closer to an upgraded free app than a premium fantasy football platform. At this price, I can’t recommend the subscription.

Good app just gotta pay for everything that’s why i sometimes prefer other sites because its cheaper or doesn’t cost anything when im already spending on prize pool in league
Review
It’s a great app, just not a fan of the expensive pricing
No IPad version
Love the iPhone, but on draft day, it would be great to have a IPad version for teams, boards, more room to review, etc.
Terrible Syncing
I tried for weeks before my draft to get the app to resync with my current ESPN league and it was constantly stuck on the previous years draft for Fantasy Football. Its info and trade judging are nice, but the subscription is 100% not worth it when their system doesn’t even work properly.
Sweatttttttttttt
Peak
Password reset
I have been on this app for years and now I can’t get my password to reset . Every time I ask for the email I get ignored and there is nowhere to get ahold of customer service
Great app
Helps so much with fantasy football 👍
Great For Mock Drafts!
The mock draft system is really advanced and does accurate picks
Draft
The linked draft feature was so cool until in the 4th round it said I needed premium. Amazing tool if it wasn’t for the massive paywall.
Worst Fantasy App
This app is awful. Their recommendations are terrible. Recommends taking players way earlier than necessary. Positional value makes no sense. It consistently recommends taking a RB despite not having WRs.
Like it But…
Very great tool but basically everything is behind a paywall. I am not sure how good the app is paid as I’m not paying but it seems very good, free analysis is helpful but few and far between not the app for me but if anyone is willing to pay I’d highly recommend this is a 3 but a high 3
Wrong team.
I had an issue with the app syncing to the wrong team in my league sent out a quick email and they fixed it right away. I really do like the app. Thank you very much for fixing it.
great
Amazing for fantasy feel like ima win the league
Money
App is good but it is like all apps needing a subscription
Usability
Very easy to use app. Easy to understand.

Won’t sync
It won’t sync to all my leagues. I even tried contacting support, but got no response. I won’t waste my money again.
