The Yahoo pre-draft rankings are horrible and create the potential to really mess up a draft. It takes at least an hour to fix the QB issue alone. With thousands of leagues out there Yahoo is wasting millions of hours of our time. Furthermore, some managers don't take the time to fix it, and if they have to rely on the auto-pick even for a few rounds during the online draft, they end up with a ****** team. And when they end up with 3 top QBs it messes up everyone's team potentially wrecking the entire season. The bad pre-rankings were there last year also and it wreaked havoc in my league. Get it together Yahoo!

Allow users a long list of preferences for auto-draft. For example, when setting my custom pre-draft rankings, let me say that I don’t want a certain player or position to be drafted before a certain round. NFL.com offers this.

The rankings are horrible. I autodrafted and had a kicker in early rounds and defensive players in rounds 5,6. Unless the free agents I picked up play way better than expected I'm in for a last place finish.

The default draft rankings for previous years were ok. Why has this changed to a ridiculous quarterback first list... and why hasn't yahoo fixed it yet? Rankings on the Players tab are correct.

What is worse is that is that changing the rankings is cumbersome as all ****.

Is there a correction to this issue, or is this the way it is going forward? This sucks!

We definitely had this problem in our league as well. The only way it seemed to be accurate is if you were on the desktop site viewing the player list from 2016 that for some reason had 2017 projected and 2016 actual rankings.

Agree that the rankings need to go back to the regular default rankings. I can't even make my own rankings out of this mess!! WTF yahoo?? Worst fantasy decision y'all have ever made!!

When editing pre-draft rankings, it would be great to have a section displaying the new draft order dynamically with the number of the rank. The Yahoo! fantasy football platform is the best in the business but the "Edit Pre-Draft Player Rankings" is the weakest part and really needs an upgrade.

It's never been like this in 10-15 years. Yahoo needs to go back to real top 200 ranking not ranks all qbs first. Live draft won't work either if all qbs come up ranked this way either.

What Verizon moron came up with this stupidity? I work on a cruise ship and have to use autopick, when I tried to change this moronic player ranking, I got booted over and over, you cant even save the average player draft position, it throws you right back to qbs listed first. Thanks Verizon for screwing my 1st 2 fantasy teams, and about to ***** my other 2. My season is already a bust thanks to you morons. I'm highly considering dropping my phone service.

I am the Commish of my 2 Leagues. And I know I am going to hear it from all my managers about this. I have a few managers who use the Autopick when drafting. I have emailed them about the change. But I know I am going to have some unhappy Managers when they see their teams!!! This Issue Needs to be fixed A.S.A.P.

Pre-draft editing on iPad is nearly impossible and very time-consuming cannot find the list of complete players by category . Some Key players are excluded from list of players???

I would prefer to rank my players in Excel and then upload my rankings instead of manually having to look at my rankings and update them in the yahoo tool. This would be a great addition.

Need to be able to search by name. Additionally consider downloading and uploading to a specific file type.

There needs to be an option for each player to use default ranking, or league scoring modified ranking. This is my opinion of a simple fix. This is needed for people who will have to autodraft. If you are live online drafting you can still see the default ranking, I think it's called XRANK, but they need to clarify that at the top of the drafting menu for easier reference and understanding for people who are not experts.

The Yahoo default rankings are a total mess. All the top picks are QBs. A kicker ranked #40? What a mess. I always set my own order but it's usually fairly close to yours, at least for the top 50 or so. Anybody who autodrafts and doesn't set their rankings will be totally screwed.
