Profiles look back across every season this league has on Sleeper (up to seven). You can see who trades most, who wins their trades, which positions each owner buys and sells, how they draft and how they use FAAB. Trade Ideas uses the same profiles to pick willing partners.
On the Free plan you see every owner’s card, your own report, one other owner’s (this week’s best pitch) and the top of the Pitch board; Pro opens every report, the Seer’s dossier, Trends and Compare.
Open an owner for their scouting report: angles read from their history, each with the numbers behind it and how to use it. It covers whether they start trades or wait for offers, how fast they accept, whether they trade after losses or right after a player’s big week, whether they sell after a bad one, the positions where they came out behind (including players past the usual age drop-off), picks and when in the year they buy them, whether they keep or flip the rookies they draft, a favorite NFL team, how much FAAB they have left, how they bid (round numbers, overbids, when they run dry), how they manage lineups, whether they cut pickups fast, how lucky their record is, and whether their trading has changed lately.
Every angle carries a confidence label: an early signal is just past the minimum sample, solid is twice it and strong is three times it (or a current fact such as FAAB left). "Recent" means most of the evidence is from the last 12 months. "Habits in numbers" shows the counts behind every angle, even ones that didn’t cross a threshold.
Some angles also say how they held up over time. We measured owners on their earlier and later seasons in 13 dynasty leagues: lineup tinkering, starting players with no game, cutting pickups fast, waiver churn, FAAB spent, round-number bids, offseason dealing, proposing their own trades and keeping draftees stayed put ("Lasting habit"); whether they buy young or old players often flipped ("Can flip"; a career direction their last six months of trades contradict isn’t shown); how their trades turned out (value or points won) didn’t carry over ("Past result, may not repeat"); and the positions they draft early, whether they buy or sell picks and when they spend FAAB changed from year to year ("Changes year to year").
"When they’re on Sleeper" charts every trade, claim and pickup by day and time of day, in the time zone set in Settings.
Compare (a tab on Owners) puts two owners side by side: lifetime record, titles and playoffs, trades and their pace, value per trade, picks in and out, the ages they buy and sell, how often they start trades and how fast they accept, waivers, lineup efficiency and FAAB, their head-to-head and trades together, and each one’s strongest trading habits. It starts with you against another owner.
Newer angles: the position they need right now (bottom three in starters’ points there this season and no deeper than the league’s average roster), whether they sell veterans for picks or youth in the offseason after missing the playoffs, whether they deal in bursts (one trade quickly followed by another), stuck in the middle of the standings, a position they never trade away, an aging core, how they do in the playoffs against the league’s own playoff drift, whether their lineups slip once a season is lost, the owner they trade with most, whether they deal during the rookie draft, whether they stand pat after a title, whether they avoid trading with the league’s top teams in season, and whether they trade to replace a regular starter who sits two weeks or more (the last two only when the numbers are clearly beyond chance). Each owner’s profile also shows what they’ve been like lately in a word or two (relentless trader, rebuilder, win-now, reacts to results, stuck in the middle, holds tight, hard to reach) when one clearly fits, with the reason beside it (in our test leagues these didn’t carry over from one set of seasons to the next, so it’s “lately”, not who they are). The Pitch board weighs the newer ones too, and the Trade Calculator shows a partner’s top angles above the rosters.
League trends (a tab on Owners) looks at the whole league: the trade web (who trades with whom, and who has come out ahead in most of their trades with each other; that’s past results: between two owners, the winner flipped as often as not later), how buys have aged (trades that mainly bought one position, or picks, judged by today’s values, which carry hindsight: players lose value as they age and picks gain it as they become players), when the league trades by month, what moves it (the share of owners who trade in deadline week, the week after a trade and after a loss, each against the other weeks and marked when the gap could be chance), and who hasn’t traded in a year.
"Across their other leagues" scans the owner’s other public Sleeper leagues on request: how many leagues they play in, and their trades, waiver bids and rosters across every dynasty and keeper league this season and last. Angles from there are marked "Other leagues" and say when they match what they do here. A first scan can take up to 30 seconds and is cached for a few hours.
The Profiles tab has a card per owner: their name and team, their record and seed, and their team’s goal (Win now, In between or Rebuilding, as on the Trade Block); this week’s pitch (Strong pitch, Fair pitch or Long shot with its score, likely buyer or seller) and the trade to start with; and their strongest tag, trading habits first. The cards follow the Pitch board, best pitch first, with your own card last (after the trade deadline, who to line up first); the order is set once this week’s numbers are in and doesn’t move while you’re on the page. Everything else (their style lately, every badge and tag, trades, trade value won, lineup efficiency, playoffs, the 30-day trade chance and their scouting angles, strongest first) is in their profile.
Opening an owner puts their profile first, right under the tabs, with the other owners in a row of chips above it to switch to (All owners brings every card back). The owner goes in the address bar, so Back closes the profile and you can link to it. The profile’s header is short: their name, one facts line (team, seasons, lifetime record, roster value) and two chips. Below it are three views: Scout (this week’s pitch with its score, buyer or seller, the 30-day trade chance, the reasons and roster fit; how to trade with them; Deal starters with the one Build a trade button; the scouting report, strongest angles first, and other leagues), Numbers (badges and habits, activity, trading and FAAB numbers) and History (record, lineups, head-to-head, roster, drafting and their trades).
The Pitch board tab (the first tab) ranks the other owners by how likely they are to deal right now and how well a deal fits your roster: their trade habits, this week’s injuries and byes, playoff odds and where they sit in the standings against you, the trade deadline, FAAB left, and the positions where they’re thin and you’re deep. Each card shows its pitch score out of 100 (35 or more is a Strong pitch, 20 to 34 a Fair pitch, below that a Long shot), the reasons for and against (“Why this score” shows the points behind each), when they’re usually on Sleeper and the angle to lead with.
“How to beat them in a deal”, on each other owner’s profile, is a plan of up to five steps from their profile, no AI: what to offer, what to ask for, how to open, when to send it and what it will cost, each with what it rests on (their pricing, solid or strong evidence, an early sign, or their record, which is a past result and not a rule). Their window on the Trade Block wins over an older pricing lean that goes against it. Your own profile shows how others will read you instead.
Your notes, on each other owner’s profile under “How to beat them in a deal”: free text only you see (“hates giving up picks”, “asked about my TE in August”), saved as you type, kept with your account on every device you sign in on, and read by Trade Ideas when it pitches that owner.
Deal starters, on each owner’s profile under “How to beat them in a deal”: up to three of your players to offer them and three of theirs to ask for, matched to which way each team is heading. A rebuilding owner is offered your young players and asked for their veterans; when you’re the one rebuilding, it’s the other way round (your veterans first, then players at their peak around 26, then a young spare where you’re deep, such as a second young tight end); otherwise it’s your bench players who would start for them and their players who would start for you. The Build button, and “Build an offer” on the Pitch board, open the pair closest in value in the Trade Calculator.
The full list of angles leads with habits that last. Past results, habits that change from year to year and angles the research couldn’t confirm come after, under “Weaker evidence for a pitch”.
“How they price players” is a model fitted to the owner’s own trades: which way they lean on draft picks, players 25 and under, players past the age drop-off (RB 27, WR 29, TE 30, QB 33) and each position against market value, with a range from resampling their trades. It’s said as a lean (“pays a bit over market”), not a percentage: tested on 4,900 later trades in 30 leagues, a clear lean pointed the right way about 3 times in 5, and the sizes were too big, so the app uses about a third of what the raw fit says. A colored bar is a clear lean (its range clears zero and at least three trades touched it); grey is too close to call. The same leans give the Trade Calculator its “In their eyes” line, the deal priced the way that owner has priced players (a nudge to “Will they say yes?”, never more), and the first clear one goes to Trade Ideas. It needs four priced trades; trades since daily values began are priced on the trade day, older ones on today’s values.
Both cards also read the owner’s trades from the other leagues the app has loaded (the owner pool), so an owner with six trades here and forty elsewhere is read on forty-six; the footnote says how many came from elsewhere. Every league anyone loads adds to the pool.
“The Seer’s dossier” (an AI run, counted like the other tools) writes an owner up from all of this: who they are as a manager, how they value players, how to open with them, what to offer and what to avoid, with a first message you could send today. It says how much it rests on (thin, fair or solid) and flags hindsight where the trades are on today’s values.
“Their story”, on the History view, is the season-by-season account: record and finish, the build (starter points by position and age), the moves, and the headline trades with what each side’s players went on to score. Trades since the daily values began are priced on the trade day.
“At the table” is the negotiation read, led by one line of advice (send the first offer, let them open, a deal shape they like, or follow up): the gap they usually settle for (their net as a share of the deal, median over their priced trades) and the most they have ever given up, whether they are softer on offers they receive than on deals they start, the shapes they take (fewer players back, more players back, 3-for-1s), how long an offer waits for their yes, and whether the offers they accepted came from teams above or below them in that season’s standings.
Each card also gives their chance of a trade in the next 30 days: their trades over the last year (pulled halfway toward the league’s rate), how busy the same 30 days were in your league’s earlier years, and whether they dealt in the last two weeks or have gone 60 days without a move. Tested every two weeks on the four leagues it was tuned on, the chances matched what happened (owners given about 30% traded 29% of the time; the lowest group, given about 2%, traded 4%, so the card says “under 5%” there), and on nine other public dynasty leagues it was never tuned on they held up too (given about 35%, 32% traded), though in mid-November, around most deadlines, it runs a few points low (20% given, 23% traded). It’s hidden while trades are closed. The pitch score counts it too (about 6 points per 10%), in place of separate points for how often and how recently they trade; an owner who deals in bursts and traded this week gets a little more, and deadline week adds points on top.
Badges
An owner’s profile carries the titles they hold in this league (a card shows one when there’s room beside their trading habits): Trade shark (most value gained per trade by today’s values, at least 750 a trade over 4 or more trades, and not on one big deal), Deal maker (most trades), Waiver hawk (most pickups), Lineup machine (best share of the best possible points started), Draft guru (rookie picks worth the most against their draft slots), Iron man (fewest empty slots or starters with no game) and Repeat champ (most titles, two or more). Each goes to the current leader, only past a minimum, and ties share it. Trade shark and Draft guru are judged on dynasty values, so redraft, keeper and guillotine leagues don’t give them; on a computer, hover a badge for the numbers.
