Drafts - Custom mock drafts/Mock drafts to match league settings
These new mock drafts would allow you to customize the settings for a mock draft or have set the mock draft to match one of your league's settings. Currently we only offer the default settings for mock drafts.

I do all my mock drafts on other sites. Other sites have an option to choose standard roster drafts or flex roster drafts. It makes a huge difference. In standard roster drafts, wrs go fast and rbs stay on the board. In flex drafts, rbs go fast. It's impossible to get a accurate mock draft on Yahoo if you play in a flex league.

There should be the option to have a mock draft that accommodates PPR scoring formats - or better yet, the ability to customize the scoring for mock drafts. Not every league uses Standard scoring and this would be an easy way to address this situation.

This has been necessary for years. Only reason my league remains with yahoo is stattracker.

I agree that a variety of formats should be availible for mock drafts along with their rankings respectivley. The idea of customizable mock drafts is a good idea too.

The worst part is this post was from a year ago yesterday! How was this ignored? I read an article at ESPN about PPR being the new age fantasy way to play. They get it. It can't be hard to do this Yahoo.

Seriously!! Every year I ask for this. How hard could this be? PPR is getting so much more popular. Yahoo is pretty lucky that are relevant in fantasy football as it is and if they don't step it up and stop just changing weird colors and making things worse, everyone is going to go to ESPN and NFL.com. What's with this new zoomed in box on the draft screen? I can only see like 5 players at a time now!

1 QB, 3 WR, 2 RB, 1 TE, 1 WR/RB/TE, 1 K, 1 DEF = the best

I have always believed that any league that allows a Team to start 3 RB's or 2 QB's is an absolute Joke.
We us QB, RB, RB, WR, WR, W/T TE.

I've always played 3 WR format since '94 before ff was even on the internet. Before all this PPR bs too. So what you mean nobody uses it? Especially nowadays, with modern football being a passing league it makes perfect sense. You see 3 wide and even 4 wide formations much more these days. So I say keep it real to the game. I'm even contemplating using just a wr/te flex, with all the 4 wide and 2 TE formations. But I agree we should be able to customize it according to our leagues. I wish I could add IDP's to the mock drafts.

the mock drafts should follow the format of their public/pro leagues

Just make a wr/rb flex position option available for mock drafts. That would be great. very helpful
Everyone does 3 wr leagues. with a flex
because its better -
Craig commented
Forget mock drafts, they should make their public leagues follow this roster format. I hate that they make 3 WR the default.

I would like to see customizable mock drafts, with the PPR Scoring as well as either multiple QB league or a QB in the flex position. So you could create a mock draft room and make public so anyone can join

Every league I've played in on Yahoo had a flex and 2 WRs, be nice to have mocks match that.

It would be cool if you could host your own mock draft, either you own every team in every position to make picks you thing will happen at every spot, or you make pick for one team, and every other team auto picks. With our keeper leagues, keepers cost a certain round draft pick, so for me to see who might be available when I draft, in a mock I would need to preassign certain players to certain draft slots. This would be unbelievably helpful for me in my keeper league.

Hey morons....there are plenty of people who like the 3 WR setup. I have been playing Fantasy for 37 years, before it was even called Fantasy Football. I hate PPR leagues....I don't understand why you want to reward someone for simply touching the ball. The number of times you carry the ball or catch the ball is meaningless in real football....it's all about scoring touchdowns. We give way too many points out in most leagues....I like the old fashion way....earn it. So in my opinion PPR leagues are ridiculous....I didn't like giving points for yardage but gave in. My original league back in 1978 only gave points for scoring touchdowns.....it was the most realistic of all games....we had scores more like 34-27 but there were higher scores but it felt more realistic. So stop whining about 3 WR leagues.....they're more realistic then a flex player or PPR. You have more teams using 3 WR's then 3 RB's on a play.
