2018 Off-Season Update

[Zapotek]

Thanks Commish.

I note that when one goes to add a player to the draft queue, sorting by 'Top 50 available' doesn't seem to be working yet.

It doesn't have the players real life draft position.

The draft has been turned on! If teams are ready a little early, they can begin selecting players.
Check your pick windows and keep your draft queues loaded up!

This year's data source for the draft pool didn't have as many names as previous years. Usually I upload 1000 names in the draft pool, but this year that source only ended up having around 400. So if you notice a player not available in the draft pool that you'd like to spend a late round pick on, make sure to send me their name with enough time to have it uploaded. I hope to add more names to the draft pool as the early rounds go on.

Will UDFA open tomorrow, commish, or will there be a pause while everything gets moved over? I can't remember how we've done it in years past.

Good question. Let's give it another day just to make sure everything's good to go. Recall that we initiated a new UDFA element of the game last year with budgets for UDFA signing bonus totals like in the NFL. We'll give it another day to make sure that's all ready to go again and try to load some additional names to the pool.

May 7th at 9AM ET will be when we'll make UDFAs who went undrafted in your sim league available in free agency.

What is the budget? Ran a search but didn’t see an amount besides the hypothetical example.

Thanks!
