About

About Fanspeak

The NFL Fan's Toolkit. Fanspeak builds web-based football tools like On The Clock, an NFL mock draft simulator, and Manage The Cap, an offseason cap space management simulator. It's free, it's been here since 2010, and two people in Salt Lake City run it.

What we build

Free to use, and we build all of it ourselves.

  • On The Clock

    NFL mock draft simulator

    Seven rounds as any team, with trades, a grade at the end, and statistics built from every mock people run here.

    Run a mock draft
  • Custom Big Boards

    Your own prospect rankings

    Rank the class yourself, draft off it, and share it.

    See the boards
  • Manage The Cap

    Offseason simulator

    Run a team's offseason against the real cap: tags, cuts, restructures, free agency and the draft.

    Run an offseason

Plus everything that grew up around them: team needs, prospect pages, draft statistics and leaderboards, college football, and articles.

Who runs it

Two people

Fanspeak is Jonathan Olsen and Carter Johnson, and that is the whole company. We own it, we write the code, and an email here lands with one of us instead of a support queue.

History

Megan Shoup and Steve Shoup started Fanspeak in 2010 and built On The Clock. Jonathan Olsen and Carter Johnson own and run it now, through BINK Acquisitions LLC.

How the tools work

If you ever wonder where a number on the site came from, these pages say so.

  • On The Clock statistics

    On The Clock is an NFL mock draft simulator, and every number there comes from mock drafts people actually ran on this site. Nothing is projected or simulated behind the scenes.

  • Manage The Cap: how it works and cap math

    Manage The Cap is an offseason cap space management simulator: what it does, where the contract numbers come from, and how we handle the cap math.

  • Big board creator

    The big board creator is a draft board builder: rank the class yourself, then take your board into the simulator and draft off it.
