Agree - you guys get enough traffic to handle flex and PPR options

Agreed! They need a PPR mock draft library. As it stands, I just go into the mock drafts and treat it as a PPR and then pretend that I'm drafting amongst guppies. My team looks ultra studly on paper.

Maybe it's just the several different leagues that I've played in over the last 10 or so years, but flex is definitely more common from my point of view than 3 WR. Just move the default #3WR to a flex position in mock drafts. I've never played in a league that ran with 3 WR.

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.

Some of you people are crazy. Leagues of 14 team or less that don't require you to start 3 WRS are weak. There's far to many WRs not to require that. A flex position is like playing with a handicap in golf.

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.

Just make a wr/rb flex position option available for mock drafts. That would be great. very helpful

Forget mock drafts, they should make their public leagues follow this roster format. I hate that they make 3 WR the default.
