The prop board is not live yet. The line history it needs is already being built.
A prop read you can trust needs its own history: what the books hung, where the line closed, and what the player actually did. Nobody can validate that after the fact, so the desk started capturing it first. Nightly prop line capture has run since Aug 8, and every captured line grades against the official box score once games are real.
What the capture takes every night
Six markets, US books, snapshotted by the 1:05am pipeline. Volume markets on purpose: every one of them grades cleanly from the official box score, no judgment calls.
The first lines on the board · captured Aug 8, 2026
All of it anytime touchdown, the only prop market books hang on preseason games. That is the honest state of a prop board in August: thin. Empty nights cost the capture nothing, so it runs every night regardless, and the history compounds the moment Week 1 boards open and all six markets go live.
How this becomes a product
- Around Sep 10 the NFL layer ships: games and market intelligence join the futures board that is already live.
- Every captured line grades in public against the box score as the season plays, the same discipline as everything else the desk posts.
- Validated prop leans come only from that graded history. Mid-season is the earliest an honest prop read can exist here, and it ships only if the grading clears our bar. We do not put a date on a number that does not exist yet.
