3. Julio Jones (Atl - WR) $41
4. Larry Fitzgerald (Ari - WR) $26
5. Mike Wallace (Mia - WR) $2
6. Shane Vereen (NE - RB) $2
7. Jason Witten (Dal - TE) $2
8. Philip Rivers (SD - QB) $1
9. Emmanuel Sanders (Den - WR) $5
10. Sammy Watkins (Buf - WR) $6
11. Zach Ertz (Phi - TE) $2
12. Carolina (Car - DEF) $1
13. Justin Tucker (Bal - K) $1
14. Eli Manning (NYG - QB) $1

How does a huge internet firm not provide adequate coverage for fantasy football during what should be it's busiest time.

Screwed me and Marciano1's draft.

They limit the number of drafts at a certain time and day to prevent this sort of thing. Don't know why they failed to manage it tonight.

Yeah, I've used Yahoo for years in my oldest baseball league. I think it's time to move on. It crashes way too often.

Amazes me that Yahoo has issues every year and people still use them.

Including this retarded league I'm in that's supposed to be drafting in 20 minutes.

Ridiculous.

When it works Yahoo to me is the best and most comprehensive fantasy site. Too many bugs and glitches and crashes every year though.

They also get ahead of themselves. Just keep improving what's in place no need for new this or that.
