I try to get the draft date/time as early as possible so we can accommodate everyone. What time can you make it??

If you've never participated in an auction draft, please take the time to do at least one mock auction draft on Yahoo!.

Why Yahoo!? Because that's where the league is and you need to be familiar with the software and how it works. Plus, Yahoo! ADP and auction values will influence the bidding heavily.


If you want to do some mock auction drafts on ESPN, CBS, wherever to get an idea of what values are like on other sites, great. But please do at least one mock on Yahoo! just so you're not bitching on draft night (or the entire season) because you couldn't figure out how to bid on your favorite RB or whatever.



I just did one on yahoo, holy shit that takes forever. I won't be able to make the 9:30pm draft time so I'm assuming auto pick will be an option.

I could do like 7pm EST. I work nights and I have a long commute so late at night is hard to do anything. I don't expect special treatment, but if it were earlier I could make it.

Bruins and Daddy Fungus: when you accepted the invite did you get a team/roster from last year?

if not i will assign you one manually from last year so you can choose keepers.

I did not get a team roster.



Ok so to be fair I used last years draft and took the first team that was open. You get their roster. Remember you do not need to keep any players but you do have the option of keeping up to 2. Look at what the draft price was (appears after the players name) and add 5.00 to that cost in order to keep them for this year. If the cost is a hyphen or (-) that means they were a free agent and the cost to keep them is 5.00 now. Your overall budget is 200.00, so choose wisely as that needs to fill your whole team. Here is your roster:

(Formerly TexansRule!)

Player

Drew Brees (NO - QB) 42
T.Y. Hilton (Ind - WR) 15
A.J. Green (Cin - WR) 28
Tre Mason (StL - RB)  -
Joique Bell (Det - RB) 21
Vernon Davis (SF - TE) 13
Jarvis Landry (Mia - WR)   -
Justin Hunter (Ten - WR) 1
Terrance Williams (Dal - WR) 10
Roy Helu Jr. (Oak - RB) 1
Reggie Wayne (Ind - WR) 9
Nick Novak (SD - K) 1
Houston (Hou - DEF) 1

We will need to decide very soon if we are sticking with 10 teams or trying for 12?


Bryan -You should post requesting the 50.00 buy in (for both leagues) and start that process.

I'm going to be on an airplane for most of 9/7. That's also Labor Day, FWIW.

 



4PM EST on just about any day other than 9/3 or 9/7 would be fine. I'm travelling from OR to PA for my grandmother's 90th birthday. I fly on Thursday 9/3, the party is Saturday 9/5 and I fly home on Monday 9/7. If I had to, I would pay for wi-fi on the plane and hope the latency didn't kill me.

I will probably have to auto draft... I am fishing in Colorado that week, and I doubt I will be back to the hotel in time.  

Not really a big deal.. I won't be doing as well this year with Bell getting me off to a good start.

If I am the only one with an issue you don't have to change it.  Didn't Ghostfly win with an auto draft one year?  Maybe I will get better players than if I did it myself...  

ETA:  I should add that there is always a chance I might have to auto draft.  I am on call 24/7 which is another reason I wouldn't change it if I am the only one with a conflict.

Don't forget you need to choose your keepers!!

The deadline for choosing keepers is Tuesday, September 1 (I changed the date to give owners more time in case a last minute injury pops up)

To choose keepers you need to click on "My Team" from the league home page. Then find the "Keepers" section located along the two top lines for managing your team. It can be located in the second line.  
Choose your keepers (up to 2 and remember to add 5.00 to last years draft price) and then "Set Keepers on the bottom of that page. I'll do the rest.

DaddyFungus, you will need to IM or post your keepers here by the due date so I can set them manually.

That is all

We set the cost of the keeper? I see the space right next to the player with "cost" at the top.  It won't let me edit it though.

No, all you have to do is choose the keepers and mentally remember what the cost was last year and then add 5.00 to that. I'll do it manually for everyone after the keeper deadline date, when I know who is keeping which players.

I wish there was a way to load the values from last year but other than manually, I just don't see a way to do it.

I have two, a cheap Akorn and a Vision,

the Akorn heats up fast, but you lose allot of heat opening and closing.
The Vision takes longer to heat up and cool off, but its way more forgiving on opening and closing, and is more consistant holding temps.  


i use the vision to grill and the Akorn to smoke

It sounds like the Vision would be the better smoker. Did you type that backwards by mistake? Would you not recommend the Vision for smoking?

So can I get a green light from you on the Vision Pro S series? 699.99 at Home Depot.

Also note that if you fail to do this the players you want to keep will be up for auction. A post in this thread does not carry any authority.




You MUST select the players you intend to keep from the league page. The commish will adjust their values before the auction and your auction budget will be $200 less the value of your kept players (last year's auction value + $5).




You can also set custom values and ranks that could help if you get stuck on autodraft for any reason.
