Couple Questions about the draft
1. If you are picking 32 in round 1 you would pick 1st in round 2 like a snake draft ?
2. Are you able to pick live if you want when you pick is up or will it be only who is top on my list at the time of the pick ?

For the test draft the picks will be made from the top of your list. Once the real draft starts, I'm pretty sure you can pick live

Actually, real league will be same way in allocation draft. No live picking, as it will throw off the timers. The point is that ever owner knows exactly when they'll be on clock.Sawblade300 wrote: Sat Oct 17, 2026 2:28 pmI believe a snake draft was mentioned as to how it will go.BGBob wrote: Sat Oct 17, 2026 1:02 pm Couple Questions about the draft

With timers being short, it's really not much different than a "live pick". You place the guy at top of your list and he is your pick when your clock expires.

No worries brother! It's new to everyone and even though I think it's the best option, it will still be a bit weird. Fortunately, we only have to do the allocation draft once.

Re: Thoughts on allocation draft
If you go into the draft board (called rookie draft even though it's the allocation), you'll see the rounds. You can click on any round to expand it and see order/times. It is a snake/serpentine draft.

Re: Thoughts on allocation draft
So, I added a player and when I go to "My Priority List" I also don't see anything but a list of who I picked and my upcoming picks.CMax wrote: Sat Oct 17, 2026 5:46 pmLIES!!!!!Sawblade300 wrote: Sat Oct 17, 2026 5:28 pm I added players to my list, but when I click on "my priority list" There is nothing there
lol.
Also, when on the forum the draft tracker header ticker isn't running, though it does when on other parts of the site.

It looks wonky because it's a 53 round draft (as opposed to a normal 7 rounder), but if you scroll down on the "My Priorities List" page, your list is below.
The "Ticker" is not currently set up in forum (only on site). I will likely add it to forum later, but this is technically "working as intended" at the moment.
