re: Why are people so against going from snake draft to auction? Please chime in.

If it's a dynasty startup, go with auction. Yes it takes more work and of course the draft is going to take longer, but its the most fair. If you're in a yearly redraft league, just roll with a snake draft. It's quick, easy, and definitely takes a bit of luck to win(as does everything in fantasy). Auction isn't for everyone but it has its time and place.
