There is a membership fee depending on your volume of play. It will be interesting to see how this plays out and if it can be a successful business model.

You can play for free up to $100 in monthly entry fees. For $1000 in entry fees it's $5.99 which seems kinda low to be able to turn a profit. For $1000/month you get unlimited entries.

Does FBG have player rankings for FantasyDraft? I'm new to daily fantasy and subscriber content so sorry if this is a dumb question.

There is usually a write up on how to do the drafts on Draft so probably same strategy.

No, for $5.99 you can enter up to $1000 worth of entries per month but still need to pay the entry fee for the contests you enter.

Considering FantasyDraft? I recommend it, but only for the rake-free cash games. Not many tournaments offered in my low price range.
However, please learn from my mistake. THERE IS NO LATE SWAP ON FANTASYDRAFT.
To quote from their Help section: "Your lineup will be locked and no changes can be made to any player once you are within 1 minute of the start time of the first game within the contest slate." I had not noticed this in three weeks of playing at the site, and was burned last night.
Pressed for time after work, I entered a few MON-THU contests with a dummy lineup of cheap Sunday scrubs and at least one player who is literally on IR. I planned to completely fade the Thursday game, then swap in my "real" players when I finally had free time this weekend. I've done this for years on Fanduel, but this time I just lit my money on fire.
This is totally on me. FantasyDraft rules were clearly posted. Just want to give you guys a heads up.
On the bright side, my H2H opponents will be offering me games next week. LOL.

So what type of gpps do they offer for $1-$2?

I'm not the best judge, since I'm more of a cash grinder anyway. The point I should have made is that they don't have the flashy, sponsored, life-changing money GPPs seen on the big two sites. Come to think of it, that might not be a bad thing.
This week, for example, I've entered:
$2 entry fee Single Entry $1,300 prize pool - 600 total entries - top prize $150, top 130 get at least $4
Wait a minute, how is that even viable? Players putting $1200 into a $1300 prize pool?

I prefer smaller single entry gpps over the huge flashy ones, I'll have to give them a try.
