Using Draft Dominator during an auction draft (1 Viewer)

I’m looking for any advice on using draft dominator during an auction draft. I’ve used it the past several years, but I am constantly pressed for time. I use draft dominator on my iPad, and at the same time I draft on ESPN for my league on my laptop. Given the timer and the pace of the auction, along with lag time by the draft dominator software, I am constantly pressed for time during the draft. I’m wondering if anybody has a method that is better.
 
My method has been to not use it. Like you said it just takes too much time and in the heat of the battle that is just an added complication I don't want to deal with.
 
Do more prep. Make cheat sheets.
Know your spot and likely players.
Have Targets/Tiers of Positions.
Have a reasonable budget outline to follow.

QB $30 for Top 12?
WR1 $40 Top 12
WR2 $? Top 24
WR3 $? Top 36
RB1 $40 Top 5
RB2 $? Top 25
TE1 $25 Top 12 or top 5?
Flex ?

DEF?

Know the guys you like and who might present value.
Depending on your position.... If there are 5 top tier RBs... and there's only 1 left go ahead and bid a little more on it But take the extra money from RB2. Now you're looking at VALUE RBs.

I like COLUMNS QBs. WRs. RBs. TEs.
Next to each:
Overall Ranking
Positional Ranking
Dollar Value Range:
Each positional column is broken town into tiers
Tier 1 Gold Elite Different makers only premium player
Tier 2 Blue Top Starters various reasons.
Tier 3 Green Pretty good but not great.
Tier 4 White. Depth. F/A Flex caliber.

You can assign a Target Value for the Tiers themselves.

What about a Google DOc in SHeets/ Excel
When another team picks.
You can have their Positions filled out. QB Gold... WR BLue RB Green TE Blue any $ amounts. You can track remaining budget and starters in general. Just cross off different players from master list so you know who's left.

OR

You can organize players by
GOLD Tier1. .Premium. Any position. $50+
BLUE Tier2 Good starters. $30-$50
Green: Tier 3 $10-$30

See if guys fall to you. Or which one's you like



Sounds like draft dominator not working and maybe ipad is slow processing.
