Min. Bid Amount

Minimum Bid (for Auction Drafts)

Enter in the minimum amount a team can bid for a player. Decimals are allowed, so this can range anywhere from .01 to 1,000,000 (note: do not use commas though).

Why does this field exist?

An option appears during the draft to view how many bid dollars a team has to spend on each pick. This amount is used in the calculation of how much a maximum bid can be for each team.

To keep the draft moving smoothly, FanDraft allows you to override illegal roster sizes, and even over spending bid dollars. It is up to the user to prevent owners from doing this, however, FanDraft does its job (during the draft) of giving fair warning when it is and is about to happen.

Note: This option is only available to Auction draft leagues.
