Lineup

Route: /lineup (the default page). It shows your roster by slot, the league's position depth, and the swap and IR controls.

Lineup with a staged swap

What does it show?​

  • A week selector and, when you have an opponent, a View matchup link.
  • A position-depth grid comparing your team with the league.
  • A Bye-week crunch ahead banner when, in the next few weeks, NFL byes leave a starting slot empty or force you to start a below-replacement player. It names the week and who is on bye, and links to waiver fill-ins and trades. It is hidden when byes are covered or the outlook can't load.
  • Your starters and bench, with bye, injury and rumor badges and suggested bench swaps. BYE marks a player on bye in the selected week; Bye Wk N shows an upcoming bye.
  • Bench and IR as separate sections. Each shows how many of the league's slots are filled (for example "Bench 6/7", "IR 1/1"), with a placeholder for every open spot. An open bench spot links to Browse free agents on Waivers. Counts appear only once the league's settings have synced.

Only a bench player can be dragged onto a starting slot. IR players have to be activated first.

Submit is enabled only for the current week; other weeks are planning only. A queued receipt does not confirm ESPN changed. ESPN can still refuse an IR move, so check your roster afterward.

Staged swaps survive a trip to Waivers or Trades and back. On narrow screens the quick actions wrap:
