Myles Posted August 15, 2016 Author #4 Share Posted August 15, 2016 I set it up so you guys can send invites. Feel free. It'd be ideal to have 8-12 Unsolved Mysteries players, but at minimum I would like any 8-12 people. What kind of draft do you prefer? Auto pick - players are dispersed based off of Yahoo rankings. Typically the teams end up pretty even. Some people don't care for it, but I like it. I feel I have to do more "GM" type work before the season starts to make it "my team". More trades in this type. Live regular draft - We pick a date and time when most or everyone can be at a computer. Draft order is random. If you pick first in the 1st round, you pick last in the 2nd round. If someone is unable to be online, their picks are made by the highest Yahoo ranked player left. It works well. Not many trades with this type because everyone already chose players they like. Live auction draft - We pick a date and time when most or everyone can be at a computer. Each team starts with a set amount of $$. Players have $$ values based off of Yahoo's rankings. Each person chooses a player and the auction happens. Some spend too much early on the great players and end up taking crap towards the end. I like it more than the regular live draft because of the "GM" aspect it brings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds like it may take quite a bit of time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.ZZ. Posted August 17, 2016 #6 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Auto pick. It's been my experience that many guys don't show for the live pick. What happens if we don't get 8-12 players? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What happens if we don't get 8-12 players? If we don't have more in a week or so, I'll open it up for public. Not sure if others will join. I thought about posting this elsewhere in this forum because I don't think many people go into the hobbies and sports part of the forum. But I'm afraid the MODS will yell at me for posting in the wrong section. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myles Posted August 26, 2016 Author #8 Share Posted August 26, 2016 You know, I bet a 4 team league might be fun. Imagine all the good players who will be out there each week. What are your thoughts? When do you want to draft? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are your thoughts? When do you want to draft? I like it. I would hate to see our guys that signed up be absorbed by strangers. Last year our league going public didn't get any results and died anyway. Let's draft after the last preseason game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing I was talking about earlier were last game injuries, but of course the starters won't be playing for the remainder of the preseason. Edit to add: We need an even number of teams so we won't have a bye in the first week. @CK we need you. Edited August 28, 2016 by ZZ430 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myles Posted August 29, 2016 Author #12 Share Posted August 29, 2016 We need one more. If you have never done it, don't worry. It's simple and the Yahoo leagues are the easiest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, I meant a bye every week is what we would have with an odd number of players. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myles Posted September 2, 2016 Author #23 Share Posted September 2, 2016 Since everyone was good with doing an auto pick league, I'll set it to draft over night tonight. I don't know what the random draft order will be. If you want, you can go to "My team" (your team). On the upper tabs, choose "Draft" Then down a little is a small link "edit pre draft player ranking" Here you can raise or lower how you want Yahoo to draft certain players. For instance, If you have the first pick, Yahoo will auto pick Antonio Brown for you. It's always the next available player based on the Yahoo rankings. So if you'd rather have Gronkowski, you can move him on up in YOUR rankings. I usually don't mess with it much. Default Player Rankings(help) 1. Antonio Brown Pit - WR 2. Odell Beckham Jr. NYG - WR 3. Julio Jones Atl - WR 4. David Johnson Ari - RB 5. Todd Gurley LA - RB 6. Ezekiel Elliott Dal - RB 7. DeAndre Hopkins Hou - WR 8. Lamar Miller Hou - RB 9. Rob Gronkowski NE - TE 10. A.J. Green Cin - WR 11. Adrian Peterson Min - RB 12. Allen Robinson Jax - WR 13. Brandon Marshall NYJ - WR 14. Le'veon Bell - Pit - RB 15. Mike Evans TB - WR 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
