Great Site. Last year I lost in the playoffs and made some poor decisions so I decided to ask for help and I have subscribed to footballguys.com this year. I am looking forward to using the quality site to win my league again(I won it all in 2003).

1) I have a few questions regarding Draft Dominator and Rookie/FA Drafts. I participate in a 16 team Dynasty league that has an unusual twist. Our league has also agreed to allow each team to draft 1 amateur each draft. The amatuer would stay on the teams roster until they reach the professional level.

I wanted to see how this would work with DD so I added a college player to the projections and I also imported a file with an ADP for the player. I projected the player to have very good stats and gave them a very high draft posistion in the ADP import; however, they still show up at the bottom of the list with a -30 value. Is there something else that factors into the VBD player pool list? Also, we do not have a lot of TE's drafted as they are not required, but they are at the top of the list all of the time. Even making changes to the VBD baseline, does not seem to affect the list.

2) I also have a question regarding draft day. At times, owners will pass a round(s) of the draft once they feel like they have enough players on draft day and other owners continue to draft. Is there anyway around not having to go into setup to change the draft order each time an owner passes.

3) Will footballguys.com ever allow for league rosters to be kept on the site so that updates to all of the information through the year would be reflected on a view of your own league? It sounds like Lineup Dominator would be the answer to this, but I like the idea of it being on the site and accesible anywhere and this option would seem to be more realtime.

1) Make sure that you give your college player projections too...
Set the Starter TE=0. This will combine them with WRs.

2) Manually Add a player from the Draft Status window called "Skip1", "Skip2", etc and add him to the current team on the clock. After the draft, or later you can remove these players by right clicking on them and sending them back to the player pool.

3) This is a real possibility...
