The Sunday Board vs DraftKings betting groups
DraftKings has offered betting groups inside its sportsbook app. The Sunday Board is a separate, free board for a group's picks from any sportsbook, plus picks with no money on them. Which fits depends mostly on where your friends place their bets.
Free. No sportsbook login. Works in any browser on a phone, tablet or computer, and casts to a TV.

Where The Sunday Board is different
- Any sportsbook. Friends at different books share one board.
- Friends who don't bet can join in with friendly picks, or add one from the guest QR code with no account.

- On the TV. TV mode and Big text for watching together.
- Grades itself from ESPN's live scores, whatever book a bet came from.
