I've used this program for drafting for years, and drafted a league with it successfully a week ago. So I'm not exactly a newbie here, but it's possible I am missing something. Here's the situation:

I have a pretty vanilla league to draft tonight. I updated the app and the projections.

There are no players on any teams.

Yet the top of the Player Pool is

Ben Obomanu followed by 19 more WRs -- all of them have 0.0 Pts, 0 VBD and ADPs that look right (Terrell Owens, for example is the 12th WR listed, but at least his ADP is 02.03)

Now, you might think perhaps I have a scoring system that weights WRs high. I don't think so, but even if I did, the top RBs on the Player Pool are

Chris Henry
Mike Hart
Jacob Hester


Adrian Peterson doesn't show up until 46 (right after the OTHER Adrian Peterson) and Tomlinson shows up at 120th ranked RB.

Something is wrong!

Before I draft tonight, I'd like to have this figured out/fixed.

Help, please? Does it look like I'm doing something wrong? Because, as near as I know, I am doing the same thing I did with the league I drafted last week (quite successfully.)

FYI - I went into my setup and un-checked the "Flexed" options on my RBs & WRs & TEs (they are allowed to be "flex" players on the starting roster) and when I did this, all of a sudden, the players sorted themselves out into the expected order in the Player Pool.

This makes no sense, but it worked.

I forgot to mention -- and it seems important because on my second computer the problem didn't go away until I did this too:


I had created the 2008 draft based on the 2007 version. When I created the IFL08 file, I returned all the players to the player pool and saved.

But, for some reason, all of the players drafted last year still did not show up anywhere near the top of the list.

So, I went to the IFL07 file from 2007, returned all the players to the pool, saved the file with the name "temp" and THEN

when I opened IFL08, all the players were there, in the right order.

Make sure you enter a schedule (File - Setup - Schedule). If you don't know your schedule yet, enter Avg. Points for each week.
