Has anyone been called out during a draft for using DD? (1 Viewer)

I'm the only one in my league that uses it. And I've always barely squeaked into the playoffs as the last wildcard and I've always lost in the first round.

It's not magic.

I'm a first time user of DD and have used it for an online draft , where it worked great but with autopicks and a 90 sec time limit , I did get behind at one point later in the draft .... but now my question... I have an 'in person' draft coming up and need to be able to place keepers ( which I've figured) the problem is that our league is expanding so the new teams get an additional pick after the 3rd round as they don't have keepers. The extra picks screw up the draft order. Should I just manually change the draft order from the 3rd round on or is there another way? Anyone had a similiar situation and can help?

There's a separate tab for keepers. As they draft, just stick the extra third round keepers in. You could call them round 0 to keep it straight.

It may not be "magic", but these Football Guys here put alot of time and effort into their FF philosophy and rankings, and have been around awhile...while I do not know anything about the "Draft Dominator", I would still wager it is worth one's time and effort to look into and use in one's draft. Nothing is fool-proof when it comes to FF, but some things do improve one's chances to win.

I think so too. I was trying to say it's not cheating to use it. If it was, I'd be a winner every time . It's a great tool, yes, but being "called out" for using it wouldn't sit well with me.

Doesn't using the DD take some of the fun out of drafting,, IE using your wits? Maybe not. I've never used it.

Serious question:Is Fantasy Football an investment for most of you?

Even if you win, you cant have much in the way of bragging rights if you let a software program that you pay for pick your team and then most likely let the "experts" at the website pick your weekly starting lineups?

It's a fantasy football message board. Of course, everybody wins every championship in every league they are in. And don't forget, they are all super-duper almost-NFL like competitive!

I used it last year and won. Being able to track what players everyone else had (and what their needs were) helped the most...that, and drafting LJ and LT.

I'd really like to use DD, but I'm afraid that I don't quite get it. For instance, I just downloaded it, input my scoring (1 pt/50 passing, 1 pt/20 run/receive, 4 for pass TD, 6 for run/receive) and league size (14 teams with standard starting roster of 1 QB/2 RB/2 WR/1 K/1 D) and it recommended Peyton Manning at the 10th pick of the draft. That makes me scared that I've somehow entered some data incorrectly or that I'm not "following" this thing. How the heck could it suggest a QB at 10, even Manning?

I have made fun of laptop guys... and everyone else. Just keeping it fun, but not offensive. Not that.

Don't care about the money. I not playing to rob unarmed people.

Don't care about the bragging. Winning does help defend ones football opinions though (even when they're wrong.)

Just there for the game.

Three guys in our league use it, and I don't care. We make fun of them, but it's just breaking balls.

One thing I do notice is that they are the 3 slowest drafters, by far.
