Re: New Draft Prep Page Is LIVE

The new Draft Prep page is light years better than the old version. Much easier to use and much easier to move players with the drop and drag function and the search function from which you can "grab" players and drop them where you want them on your list. I give the new page a solid 'B'. My only re...

Re: Draft Prep List

I thought I was done with this topic, but as I went to manually move players on the Draft Prep list up and down to match my draft list, I rediscovered another thing that is annoying to the max about the Draft Prep list: names on the Draft Prep list are listed first name first, then last name. In the...

Re: Draft Prep List

LOL Pickers. If you got to know me, I think you'd realize that there was nothing about this debate that did or could strike a nerve of mine. No worries there. ;) As far as the comment that disappointed you, yes you do appear to have understood it in the wrong context. However others did understand ...

Re: Draft Prep List

I can't believe how many really good players in these games are up in arms about making the ADP list a little more 'accessible' to all. Every really good player is really good because they are willing to work at this game and work harder than the next guy. By the way, anyone who thinks it's "harder...

Re: Draft Prep List

It's pretty funny that for a number of years that those that talked about ADP on these boards were called Sheep by the old guard. Now each year we have threads devoted to why you're foolish to follow the ADP. As soon as someone suggests it as a default the same folks come forward crying foul. Hyste...

Re: Draft Prep List

I'll try. First... Why? Let online drafters work a little bit. Why should ADP be spoon fed to drafters. I mean, man, ADP is shoved down our collective throats just about everywhere, does it have to be on our own draft page in drafts too? Leave SOMETHING to the imagination! A best case scenario woul...

Re: Draft Prep List

I do understand the request for the Draft Prep tool to organize the players into positions. This seems like a fair request. ADP, not so much. Can someone please explain to me why it would be unfair for the Draft Prep tool to have an option that could be set to a current ADP list? It isn’t like the ...

Re: Draft Prep List

I agree setting the Draft Prep page to the ADP list should not be the place of the NFBC. Organize your prep as you see fit. Let's not make online drafting too much easier than live drafting. It's easier as is. I'm also not a big fan of leveling the playing field any further than it already is. If I...

Re: Draft Prep List

Greg - I do more drafts than most of your customers. I think they should be listed alphabetically and that's it or if u have to, based on last years stats. IMO anyone wanting it listed by adp is just being lazy and looking to shortcut their own work efforts. In this world of instant gratification I...

Re: Draft Prep List

The new Draft Prep tool will be available this week to make this easier for you. Look for it shortly. I will reserve judgment until I see the new Draft Prep tool, but from what you say further down in the post it sounds like manual up and down changes still have to be made, which is archaic and a c...

Draft Prep List

I know this has been asked before, but is it not possible, with all of the technological advancements we have made in the 21st century, to have some sort of link on the Draft Prep page so that the Draft Prep list could be defaulted to a current ADP list? What I typically do is manually set the Draft...
