I've studied the top 100 and have my strategy down pat, with variables. I just don't want to overthink it or get used to drafting guys that might not even be there when we do the deed.

Right, because you will be amazed at the talent when you have back to back picks after waiting after pick #1....You will get 2 great players on those back to back picks, Picks 24 and 25 are top talents to add to your Pick #1....
I just had best Mock so far at pick #7, but it was too good. You guys aren't going to let me draft a Super Team like these mock drafters did. I'm about done on Mocks. Maybe one on our Draft Day to make sure system up and running. You guys are tough, a lot tougher than these Rookies in Mock Drafts.
Oh, it helps to know where to type in players name to avoid hard scroll down system. There are spots in draft the player I want is down the list, but Yahoo doesn't allow time to scroll down much. The type in name area is faster. If in grey, it means player already taken.

Yesterday, since i have a draft on NFL.com for my work league, i decided to go over there and do a couple mocks. They all turned out pretty much the same with who was available when, with very little variation.
Then i went to Yahoo to do a couple mocks and the players were almost completely different. After doing 2 or 3, i got close to what i was drafting on NFL.com.
And our draft will be different because the guys drafting are going to have a different style.
Should be fun!

I think most standard mocks are giving 30 seconds. I'm pretty sure that bfine usually gives us at least a minute, so that's helpful as well.

That would help, because on my old laptop, Yahoo shows a couple top picks, but on scrolling down it skips over names. It's Ok, I've did drafts on this old laptop before. The extra time bfine allows will help.

So...i just noticed. Why are we doing 3 WRs when we're adding a RB and TE and still have a flex?

2-3 weeks in the guys who get unlucky drafting a guy that gets injured is gonna be starting the vikings 3rd string WR hoping they score any points.
I can accept whatever but yea not sure a 3rd WR spot was necessary.

Yea somehow we ended up with an extra WR spot.
If we still got time to remove it i'd vote for that option but can adjust either way.

I'll send bfine a PM. I'd also rather not have 3 WR and a FLEX.

He said in his post 3 WR's, so that's how I set it, but maybe he meant 2? So I changed it.

The only thing it probabaly messes up is all of Kevin's mock drafts.

All good either way for me. I think it's at QB/RB/RB/WR/WR/TE/Flex/D/K now. I didn't log back on yahoo to confirm but I think I'm remembering it correctly.
