As far as the ADP from Mock Draft Central, if you print up the results, you might as well use them to wipe your arse 'cuz that's about the best service they can offermaybe not. Outside of nfbc satellites it's the only product with nfbc draft relevance around. Everyone entering an nfbc contest gets a free account. Maybe 1/2 take advantage of it. What do you think will shape THEIR draft preparation? For the main event quite a few of these ADP's may come to fruition. [/QUOTE]and what about all the drafts last weekend that were on auto select?

The fact that MDC exists AND that nfbc's satellites are on them give credence to their rankings. "Smart" drafts surely are being watered down but that still won't stop a number of main eventers from using the site as cliff notes. Therefore MDC's information does have some usefulness.

[/QUOTE]I agree, I have been in a couple of mocks with some bad owners. IE selecting delmon young in the 9th. So I simply just politely quit. The majority have helped me to organize my thoughts and helped me stick to diffeerent plans depending on how I saw the draft going...
What I like about MDC is they have already done the number crunching from several fantasy sources to come up with their PDI's. Sure it's not 100% NFBC, but it does have it's value if you practice from numerous draft positions. I've found I hate the #3 spot...
Of course, I also don't have any NFBC credentials, so who am I but another noob trying to compete with some of the best...
MDC isn't a bible, but it's a decent guide...

It's what you learn after you know it all that counts.
