I think Yahoo is almost dead to me. My main is going auction this year so I did my first ever Auction. I think I may push commish to switch to ESPN.
sucks, I hate pretty much everyone of my picks...will have to work on strategy.

bud espn doesn't have the trade evaluator so you can try and justify your horrible attempts at trade rape

that's what my commish texted me, what's so special all of a sudden with Fleaflicker,,,hadn't ever heard of it and I've been playing for over a decade

Fleaflicker is more customizable and will fit nearly any rule/scoring system. We have a very unique scoring system (two qb's ppr, bonus for specific TD length, etc) and at the time 3 yrs ago, fleaflicker was the only thing that was 100% compatible. We have a very unique system when it comes to free agency as well. It's kept our draft history (which Im sure all of the sites do) since we've started with fleaflicker. I also enjoy the amount of knowledge that is at your fingertips with the way the site breaks your team/scoring/probablity down with various charts/line graphs/bar graphs/trends. It's free (like all the others I presume) and basically is what worked for us and we've used it since then. Im sure all the other sites are great too. I have not personally used other sites very much (save ESPN) but the guys in my league that have used multiple sites (yahoo, cbs, espn) have all agreed that they prefer fleaflicker.

which would make sense as to why my commish wants it....he loves adding bonuses to random shite basically making it more "chance" of shite happening than being able to predict performance.
Do they allow for auction?

I've been a strong advocate for Yahoo in years past, but they are really falling behind. I think the only reason we're still with them is because our league history is all on there.
Getting rid of the chat feature in StatTracker was an awful idea.
StatTracker itself is fricked up half the time.

I really do not know as we've always had a snake draft. I would be willing to bet they do.

Site looks way too boring and bland. Couldn't keep my interest for 2 minutes.

A real auction draft will see inflated values for the top 20 picks. There will be guys spending $60 on their top rb and maybe $40-$45 on top wrs and elite qbs.
You pretty much have to decide if you are ok with spending $40+ on a top wr and rb. If not, look for good value picks around $30…you may have to wait it out 20 picks or so, but you can load up after that while others will have to be more cautious.
I catch shite every year for not spending a ridiculous amount of money on a top rb in mocks and the actual auction. I spend my money on wrs. I get 3 $30 wr (last year I got Calvin, marshall, and aj green) and spend $25 on a qb (usually go with a brady, ryan, or maybe stafford) and $30+ one 1 rb. Rbs are tricky like this though. I was lucky enough to nab forte for $31 last year and got bush and lacy for $15ish….stacy for $1. It's really possible to miss out on all of the tbs though. You have to really evaluate who is worth it to you. You can always find value at TE nowadays for cheap. Julius Thomas $2 last year. Ebron would be a good target.
I also like to nominate players further down on the list to see if I can get them early and fulfil a need or get people to spend too much on them.
