I would strongly advise using the draft utility.This would save you much time .The draft utility does NOT allow for duplicate picks.So that eliminates a guy picking someone and coming back later only to find he must re pick.

You contact WIS.let them know the league parameters(Season).Somehow they load ALL 1946 players.it works like this.I am sure other owners can explain better than I.let's say in round 10,I wish to draft a catcher.I click on catcher position and the utility lists all the catchers that have been drafted.if I try and draft a player that has already ben selected,IMMEDIATELY the draft utility gives a message saying PLAYER HAS ALREADY BEEN SELECTED PLEASE PICK AGAIN.or something like that.The big thing is duplicate picks which happen in 1st year drafts are completely eliminated.

How does that work with time slots, missed picks, etc.?

It seems like the old fashioned way works fine, but I'm open to it if it is a vast improvement.

It sucks. It is not set up to allow proxy picks w/o having to give someone your access info.

I am contemplating trading the #1. I will make a decision before heading to work tonight though.

I don't think I'm going to want to bother with the draft utility. We need to allow proxy picks.

draft utility in theory is great, but really just adds a lot of difficulties and complications.

No draft utility then.

And apparently we do not get a private forum until all of our teams are entered into the league I created, so we'll have to just go ahead and have the draft right here.

When Boston got the first pick, they were leaning towards a starting pitcher, but the coin has been flipped and...
