Allow round-by-round pre-draft strategy for auto draft
It would be helpful if we could set up a pre-draft strategy for auto draft, specifically regarding which position we want to draft in each round of the draft. For example, if I want to draft a RB in round 1, a WR in round 2, a QB in round 3, a TE in round 4, etc., I would like to be able to arrange my auto draft strategy to make sure that the auto-draft chooses my desired position for each round.

Add '3rd Round Reversal Snaking' as a draft type option
When you setup a draft the only option are 'Snaking' and 'Non-Snaking'. Add a third type for 'Snaking - 3rd Round Reversal'. If you're not familiar 3rd Round Reversal is a way to try and balance out the importance of high picks by giving the lower positions in the draft earlier choices in rounds 2 and 3 (instead of just round 2). Then you would snake starting in Round 4 with the 1st overall pick going 1st in round 4.
Hi Jim,
Thanks for your feedback.
You can use the commissioner tools to customize your draft to set it up with the kind of snaking system you want to use. We will pass along your feedback to our product team.

Auto Save when using Offline Draft
For various reasons our league prefers to use the offline draft feature. The only real downside is that it doesn't auto-save when you make a pick. You have to go and hit save. Then once it saves you have to go and click on the next person to draft. If would be much better if it would just auto-save when a pick is made and move to the next player.

Earliest round for kickers and defenses
I had to use Yahoo auto draft this year, and it did fine except for the awful decision it made to draft my kicker and defense in the 5th and 6th rounds!!! That is ridiculous, especially when I went into the pre draft rankings and moved all kickers and defenses back so the 10th round should have been the earliest. I see some notes now that your logic will try to fill starter spots first, and that kickers and defenses can be put in the do not draft list. Seems like a better idea would be to simply allow…

Options for other kinds of drafts
So we do things a little different in our league. We call it a Chaos League - we play a game for each round of the draft and whatever you land on from the game - team, jersey number, position, division, etc - is what you can pick from on your next pick. We also have rounds where we roll a dice and say everyone from round 5, the players all switch to the right or left of the board, we also do trade rounds, drop rounds, and steal rounds. Then we also have restrictions …

Scoring - Position specific scoring categories
This scoring setting change would allow commissioners to change the scoring value for common scoring categories for each position (QB/RB/WR/TE) individually. For example, a commissioner could make receptions 1 point for WRs and RBs but 2 points for TEs. Currently you can only change the scoring value for all positions at once.

Rosters/Lineups - Roster limits for positions.
This feature would allow commissioners to set the maximum and minimum number of players a team can roster at each position at a given time. For example, teams can have a maximum of 3 QBs on their roster or a team can have a minimum of 1 kicker. Currently there is no way to set the maximum or minimum number of players a team can roster at each position.

Drafts - Allow commissioner to make selections for other teams during a live draft.
This draft feature would allow commissioners to make selections for other teams when enabled. For example, if someone were to lose connection to the draft but was able to contact the commissioner, they could have the commissioner make the selection for them. Currently the commissioner can not make selections for other teams.

initial waiver wire rank for rolling list too valuable to base on nominating order
In standard draft leagues, it is the case that most players agree that an early pick in the draft is an advantage. Awarding places in the waiver queue in reverse draft order seems appropriate to provide some compensation to players who pick later in the first round.
For salary cap leagues, there is almost zero advantage to an early nomination. Awarding the valuable first waiver priority position just for nominating last is unbalanced.
For salary cap leagues, nominating and bidding on the top waiver slots would be a way of making it fair.

Scoring - Team Position Points
This scoring setting credits all points scored by a specific position on an NFL team to the manager who rosters them. Most commonly, team QBs are used in this scenario. For example, if Russell Wilson gets hurt, the team that started him would get the points from Geno Smith for the rest of the game. Currently we don't offer this setting.
