Autopick: Your Fantasy Football Savior
Imagine you're in the middle of an intense fantasy football draft. The clock is ticking, and suddenly, you get distracted or your Wi-Fi decides to take a coffee break. You miss your draft turn, and panic sets in. But fear not, because Autopick is here to save the day!
What is Autopick?
Autopick ensures that even if you miss your draft turn or the entire draft, you still have a fighting chance to win. How does it work? It's as simple as A, B, C.
-
Pre-Rank Players: First, you tell Autopick who your favorite players are. You rank them in the order you want them on your team.
-
Autopick to the Rescue: When your turn comes, Autopick checks your rankings. If it can grab one of your top picks, it does so. If not, it defaults to Yahoo Sports' ranking.
That's it! It's like having a guardian angel for your fantasy team.
Live Draft vs. Autopick Draft
In a live standard draft, you're competing with others to snatch your favorite players. But Autopick works its magic even if you can't be there to click the buttons. It's like having your cake and eating it too.
The Live Salary Cap Draft Twist
Salary Cap Drafts are an exciting live battle, where managers try to outbid each other for top players. Autopick? It plays by different rules. It caps out at 120% of a player's default value or your pre-draft value. So, sometimes, it's a wild auction out there!
Master of Multitasking
If you're juggling multiple fantasy teams in different leagues, don't worry. You pre-rank your players once, and then you can export your settings to your other teams. One and done!
Set Your Fantasy Football to Autopilot
Okay, now the big question: how to set your fantasy football team to auto-draft mode? It's easy, but there are steps.
-
Head to your main team page.
-
Look for the "Edit Auto-Pick Strategy" link before the draft begins.
-
On the edit page, you'll see each round of the draft with a menu to pick the position you want.
And there you go! You're on the road to Autopick glory.
One Last Thing: Patience Pays
Some say Autopick takes 4-6 hours to work its magic, while others claim it's within 72 hours. So, be patient; good things come to those who wait.
In the end, Autopick is your fantasy football bestie, helping you build a winning team even when life gets in the way. So, sit back, relax, and let Autopick do the heavy lifting. You've got this! 🏈💪
