Why Fortified Fantasy Exists
Fantasy football should be fun, competitive, and accessible to everyone. But year after year, we noticed that the most powerful fantasy football tools were locked behind expensive paywalls. Sites like Establish the Run (ETR), PFF Fantasy, 4for4, RotoViz, Draft Sharks, and PlayerProfiler all offer advanced tools — but only if you pay monthly or yearly subscriptions.
That’s why we built Fortified Fantasy: the best free alternative to Rotowire and every other paid fantasy football site. Our mission is simple: give every fantasy manager access to the same powerful analytics, projections, and insights — without the cost.
Free Alternatives to Paid Fantasy Football Tools
Here’s how Fortified Fantasy stacks up against the biggest names in fantasy football:
- Some sites charge for their Draft Wizard, Trade Analyzer, Start/Sit Assistant, and Waiver Assistant. Fortified Fantasy gives you free start/sit tools, trade analysis, waiver wire recommendations, and rest-of-season projections.
- RotoWire locks depth charts, advanced stats, and player outlooks behind a paywall. We offer free depth charts, injury reports, and player matchup breakdowns.
- Establish the Run (ETR) is popular for DFS and betting tools, but requires a paid subscription. Fortified Fantasy delivers matchup insights, DvP stats, and DFS-friendly projections completely free.
- PFF Fantasy (Pro Football Focus) uses advanced data and grades — but most is locked for Pro subscribers. We provide weekly rankings, projections, and strength of schedule analysis at no cost.
- 4for4 and RotoViz specialize in premium data tools. Fortified Fantasy makes advanced tools like Fantasy Market Value (FMV), playoff analysis, and rest-of-season tools available to everyone.
- Draft Sharks and PlayerProfiler charge for premium draft kits and dynasty rankings. We provide free dynasty outlooks, draft prep insights, and customizable player comparisons.
