Lineups are automatically optimized for each team each week. At the end of the week, the highest-scoring players are automatically inserted into the starting four (4) lineup positions
You are allowed to draft any number of players from each position including Running Back (RB), Wide Receiver (WR) and Tight End (TE). There are no Quarterbacks, Kickers or Defenses drafted in the Playoff Super Slam. Only four individual players from a particular NFL team may be selected in a single draft.
Entrants may edit Tournament rosters until the Lineup Lock time listed under Tournament Details. No waivers or FAAB bidding will be conducted during the tournament duration.
At the end of each NFL Playoff Week, FastDraft will automatically select the entrants' four (4) highest scoring players with no position restrictions and designate these four players as “starters” to create the optimal lineup each week. Only the four highest scoring players' statistics each week are counted toward the entrants' accumulated tournament score.
Each 6-player team is awarded four (4) Captain Boosters at the conclusion of each draft. Captain Boosters are multipliers that increase the fantasy point output of each player who is assigned a booster position.
Captain Booster Multipliers
The four (4) Captain Booster Positions are allocated as follows:
Captain Booster Assignment
By default, Captain Boosters are automatically assigned to drafted players by draft position:
Upon the completion of each draft, entrants will have the opportunity to modify the default booster assignments. Assigning Captain Boosters can be done up until up until the Entry Lock Time.
If a tie occurs, entrants who are tied will evenly divide the combined prize allocation for the corresponding finishing positions they share. For instance, if two entrants tie for first place, they will equally split the combined prize for first and second place. Similarly, if four entrants tie for second place, they will evenly divide the combined prize for second, third, fourth, and fifth place.
The Playoff Super Slam runs from Wildcard Weekend, through and including, the Super Bowl.
Standings and Tournament Placing
Standings are determined by total fantasy points scored, with all points earned from Wildcard Weekend through the Super Bowl contributing to an entrant's tournament score. This is a total-points tournament without head-to-head matchups.
Prizes are awarded to the team with the highest total points accumulated during the NFL playoffs. At the end of the Super Bowl, the team with the most points will be declared the winner.
