I just tried some Yahoo Mock Drafts. First 2, I was clicking on players names but not doing anything. It went into auto draft mode after 2nd non pick.  My 3rd draft I found if you click on name it goes to top of screen and THERE you hit DRAFT. 

I did OK from there, except site was sticking for me.  I like to build list of players by typing in names, and that was going slow.  Going from All Players, to Pitchers to Catchers was very slow.  I suggest you don't be pulling up things 4 spots before you draft or sooner.  It sticks and you can't draft.  

Unlike CBS, Yahoo won't let you into Draft Room early to build list. It lets you in just in time to start draft.  If you are 1st up, those 60 seconds will go fast as you try to find your player and draft him.  Once in, you can build a list or just go off their top player list all through draft.  After you draft and you don't draft for a few spots, maybe try to type in names of players you aren't seeing , and if not drafted, add them to your side list. It locked up a lot for me, so good luck. I still got my picks in unless it really locked up. Not much you can do when that happens. 

REMEMBER :  To make a draft pick, you click on player and go to top of screen where it shows your player up there and you then hit draft button. It's really too many buttons and clicks, but what are you going to do. It is what it is. ....If you just keep clicking players name, nothing will happen and computer will finish your draft.  YOU HAVE TO ALSO CLICK PLAYER AGAIN AT TOP and HIT DRAFT BUTTON.  

I suggest trying some Yahoo mock drafts just to get the hang of it.

I was going to say he's not even the worst in Bengals History.  That honor is shared by Homer Rice, Dave Shula, Bruce Coslett and Dick LeBeau as head coaches.  Now Coslett and Lebeau were good for Bengals as either player or assistant coach.  Tiger Johnson actually had winning season, just no play-off, but less play-off teams back then.  For 2 coaches that added nothing to this team, it has to be Homer Rice and Dave Shula in a tie for Worst Bengals Coach Ever. 

Anyway, great way to get this back on Main Board.  Also good job setting up Bengals Fantasy Baseball Draft League. 

In draft today,  the Yahoo is tricky.  You have to click on player you want and then go to top where his picture and name pops up and you have to hit DRAFT PLAYER button up there also.  Just clicking on player on list won't draft him, that only moves him up to top of site where you then have to click again in DRAFT PLAYER.   I hope this helps somebody, because it it took me a couple mock drafts to find how to draft on this Yahoo site.  CBS was much easier. 

For those interested, MLB again has Beat The Streak.   Each day you can pick players to try to beat Joe Dimaggio's hit streak. You can pick different players each day.  Nobody has done it the last few years I've played it.  If you do it, you would win Million Dollars and it is free to try.  They do have a cash prize for whoever has the longest hit streak in 2018.  Opening Day I'm doubling down with Altuve and Ichiro back in Seattle as night Pete came back to Cincy.  I'll either start with 2 game hitting streak or a goose egg.

The guy didn't even wear a headset and his players treated him like he was a joke. Rich Kotite was awful with the Jets, but was pretty good with the Eagles, and even has 1 more playoff win than Marvin Lewis.
