PrizePicks Launches First Daily Fantasy Game For NFL Draft

PrizePicks, the largest daily fantasy sports operator in North America, debuted Tuesday a new free-to-play game that allows football fans to make their picks on the draft’s most viral moments.

Winners Of PrizePicks’ The Draft 2025 Will Win A Share Of $500,000 In Free Lineups

PrizePicks players can submit three predictions from several cultural instances and player projections surrounding the draft. Players who create a perfect 3-pick lineup will win a share of $500,000 in free lineups.

Note that all participants must submit 3-pick Power Play lineups. Each member is allowed to submit only one lineup per event. Players can cancel their lineup and submit a new one all the way up until the event starts.

“The online conversation that buzzes on draft night is almost as entertaining as the draft itself,” said Mike Quigley, Chief Marketing Officer, PrizePicks.

“We are fired up to bring players a game that allows them to engage with those viral moments in a totally new format that hasn’t been done before.”

The Draft projections include:

  • Boo Birds: Will the commissioner be booed for more or less than 10.5 seconds?
  • Frame It!: Will more or less than 3.5 first round picks be wearing glasses?’
  • Kiper’s Hot Takes: Will Mel Kiper use the term “upside” more or less than 3.5 times in the first round?
  • Left Standing: Will more or less than 1.5 players be left in the green room at the end of the first round?
  • The Heisman: Will Travis Hunter’s draft position be more or less than 2.5?

Unlike some other No KYC sites, PrizePicks requires a Know Your Customer policy. Players must have a registered and verified PrizePicks account to participate in the free-to-play game. Those interested are required to submit their free lineup by Thursday, April 24, at 8 p.m. ET.

The Draft Is Playable Where PrizePicks Pick’Em, PrizePicks Arena Are Available

The Draft will be available in all states and regions where PrizePicks Pick’em or PrizePicks Arena are available. However, if you are located in a state that offers the PrizePicks Streak game mode, you will not have access to this game mode.

If one of a player’s picks does not participate in The Draft for any reason, that pick will be automatically marked as a win. Results will be finalized after the entire event concludes.

In addition, the $500,000 total prize pool is split evenly among all winning participants who correctly predict all the picks in their lineup. Winnings will be credited to accounts in the form of a free lineup after the event concludes.

Since the 2025 NFL draft is a 3-day event, all final scoring and Free Lineup rewards will be confirmed within 48 hours after the event has ended.

PrizePicks is also bringing some of its partners into The Draft “War Room.”

According to PrizePicks’ news release, BenDaDonn, BookItWithTrent, Lou Young, and Sketch will deliver high-energy skits featuring their hot takes on draft night’s biggest storylines.
