League Tycoon is the dynasty fantasy football platform. Standard dynasty is completely free, and contract dynasty adds salary caps and multi-year contracts for leagues that want more depth. The platform includes slow auction drafts with 20+ players at once, trade auctions, compensatory picks, draft lottery, league history and Hall of Fame, mobile app, web access, and zero ads.

No. League Tycoon is built for dynasty leagues as a category. Standard dynasty is the core of the platform and is completely free. Contract dynasty is a deeper format for leagues that want salary caps and contracts. The platform also supports Graveyard, Gambit, and Ranked formats.

Both. League Tycoon has a native mobile app available on iOS and Android, and a full web experience accessible from any modern browser. You can use whichever you prefer, or switch between them. The experience and features are consistent across both.

No. League Tycoon has zero advertisements and zero sportsbook clutter. It is a pure fantasy football platform with no engagement bait.

Standard dynasty is completely free. That includes slow auction drafts, trade auctions, compensatory picks, draft lottery, league history and Hall of Fame, mobile app, web access, league chat, and zero ads. Contract dynasty features cost $11.99 per team per year via a token. You can explore all contract features for free before September 1st activation.

Yes, with true-position IDP. Defenders are listed at the position they actually play, so a league can start individual DT, DE, LB, CB, and S slots instead of generic defensive spots. Alongside those there are DL slots that take a DT or DE, DB slots that take a CB or S, an IDP Flex that takes any of the five, and a team D/ST slot for leagues that want one. IDP is available in free standard dynasty and in contract dynasty, where defenders carry salaries and contracts like everyone else.

Yes. Base scoring covers 14 defensive categories for every defender: solo tackles, assisted tackles, sacks, sack yards, tackles for loss, quarterback hits, passes defended, interceptions, interception return yards, fumbles forced, fumbles recovered, fumble return yards, safeties, and blocked kicks. On top of that, IDP Position Premiums add a separate per-position value for solo tackles, assisted tackles, sacks, quarterback hits, tackles for loss, and passes defended, configured independently for DT, DE, LB, CB, and S. That is 30 position-specific settings, so a defensive tackle's tackle can be worth more than a linebacker's and a cornerback's pass defended can be worth more than a lineman's.

Up to 32. Standard dynasty and contract dynasty run from 4 to 32 teams in even counts, since the schedule pairs every team every week. Twelve is the default when you create a league. Graveyard also runs 4 to 32 and allows odd counts because it ranks and eliminates rather than pairing teams, and its Jumbo field goes from 33 up to 2,000 teams. Gambit caps at 16 because each team drafts one of 16 coach schemes.

Yes. A 32-team league is a supported, selectable configuration in standard dynasty, contract dynasty, and Graveyard. Everything else works at that size, including salary caps and contracts, slow auction drafts, trade auctions, the draft lottery, compensatory picks, playoffs, and league history.

Yes. Roster slot counts, scoring values, and the number of teams are all commissioner settings that can be changed between seasons in Commish Tools. Shrinking a league asks the commissioner to choose exactly which teams come out. Gambit is the exception on roster settings, which stay fixed to keep its 16 coach schemes balanced.

Yes. Positions can be overridden league-wide, including a player's primary and secondary position, and changes can be uploaded in bulk by CSV. Overrides use the granular positions, so an edge defender is set to DE or DT rather than to a DL bucket. Players with two positions are eligible in both, and their IDP premium points come from the primary position.

A contract dynasty league is a dynasty fantasy football format where every player has a salary and contract length. Teams operate under a salary cap, creating GM-style decisions about who to keep, extend, franchise tag, or release. Contracts expire over time, creating natural roster turnover and strategic depth.

Contract dynasty adds salary caps, expiring deals, and more offseason decisions. Standard dynasty keeps the rules simpler while still delivering the full long-term dynasty experience. Both are fully supported on League Tycoon.

Contract dynasty adds strategic depth, but League Tycoon makes the information clear and accessible. Cap space, contract details, and available moves are visible at a glance. Most players find it intuitive once they see it in action, especially because everything is managed inside the platform, not on spreadsheets.

Not on League Tycoon. All salary caps, contracts, extensions, franchise tags, RFA tenders, rookie options, and compliance are managed automatically inside the platform. This is the core advantage. Other setups require spreadsheets and manual tracking, but League Tycoon does not.

RFA tenders are an advanced contract dynasty mechanic that lets a team retain an expiring player by signing a 1-year tender at a chosen level. Each level pairs a salary with a rookie pick compensation package. Tenders are signed during the offseason; after rollover the tendered players are queued for the RFA auction. The original team has the right to match the winning bid or decline. If they decline, the high bidder sends the rookie pick compensation tied to the original team's tender level. Compensation is fixed by the level the original team selected, not the size of the winning bid, which creates a real risk-reward decision when picking the level.

Use the built-in league import. Open Tools, choose Import League, pick your current platform, and paste a link to your league. League Tycoon stages a full preview, and once you approve it the import creates the league with your teams, rosters, settings, scoring, future draft picks, team logos, contracts where the source has them, and your past seasons. What is left is a checklist of items worth a human decision, plus sending the invite link.

Sleeper, ESPN, CBS, MyFantasyLeague, and Fantrax. There is also a guided manual path for leagues on any other platform, which builds the league shell and hands the commissioner a setup checklist. Yahoo is not supported because its fantasy API has no route that works without an approved developer application.

No. The import only reads from your current platform and writes only to League Tycoon. Your existing league is completely untouched, so you can import it, look around, and decide afterward.

Yes, when the source platform exposes them. MyFantasyLeague, Fantrax, and CBS salary and contract data imports directly into a League Tycoon contract dynasty league. Caps larger than League Tycoon's 10,000 maximum are scaled by a power of ten rather than clipped, and every salary is scaled by the same factor, so relative value is preserved exactly. If your league is moving to contracts for the first time, League Tycoon can generate a starting contract structure instead.

League Tycoon's modern UI is designed to be easy to learn. The mobile app and web experience are clean and intuitive. Most league mates adapt quickly, especially if they're coming from older or more cluttered platforms.

No. The league import brings up to 20 past seasons across and rebuilds them as real, browsable seasons: standings, week-by-week matchups with the lineups each team actually started, playoff brackets, and final standings. The same import fills your Hall of Fame with all-time standings, head-to-head records split between regular season and playoffs, trophies for past champions, and all-time high scores. Franchises are matched by owner rather than by name, so a team that has changed names several times keeps one continuous record. Everything stays editable.

Yes. Many leagues make this transition. You can assign initial contracts and salaries to existing rosters when setting up on League Tycoon. The commissioner guide covers best practices for this conversion.

Show them the platform. When contract information, cap space, and available moves are visible and clear rather than buried in spreadsheets, the complexity becomes manageable. League Tycoon is designed to make contract leagues accessible to every member, not just the commissioner.
