Announcing: IDP Madness 2026!
Our industry-leading best ball tournament is back by popular demand. Sign up today to reserve your spot!
Many of you have participated in one or more of our IDP best ball tournaments this offseason, and we thank you! Not only are those drafts fun, but they also help shape our ever-evolving ADP. As we approach July, though, it’s time to kick things up a notch by bringing back our massive annual best ball tournament:
IDP MADNESS!
As in previous years, IDP Madness will consist of several 12-team leagues. It’s a single-entry tournament with a $5 buy-in and a $20 payout for each league winner. The team with the most total points at the end of Week 18 will be declared the overall champion and take home ALL of the remaining entry money ($40 per league filled) on top of your $20 league winner payout and unreal amounts of clout.
All entry fees will be paid out to winners. No rake here!
This is a 22-round slow draft (4-hour timer, paused overnight) using Big 3 Scoring and with a lineup of 4 DL, 4 LB, 4 DB, 2 FLEX, and 8 bench. This is Underdog-style best ball, which means draft and done. No waiver claims or trades. Your draft will start once it’s filled and everyone has paid their entry fee. Make sure you set and maintain a queue, as no picks will be redone once the draft begins.
This year, to help with security (i.e., ensuring no one enters more than once), we’re using a sign-up form rather than open registration. Here’s how it’ll work:

You’ll be invited to LeagueSafe to pay your $5 entry fee
Once you’ve paid, you’ll be added to a league
When the league is filled, the draft will start
Since LeagueSafe is only available to people in the U.S. and Canada, we’ve got another system in place for international folks. You’ll see details about that on the form:
IDP Madness is one of our favorite traditions, and we’re excited to bring it back in 2026. It’s a chance for this community to compete against the best IDP minds in the game. If you’ve been grinding the ADP, studying landing spots, and building your big board all offseason, this is what you’ve been preparing for: five bucks to prove you’re the best in the business. Sign up, let’s get drafting, and may the best roster win.
See you in the draft!
