All of NationalFantasyLeagues fantasy football leagues will hold a LIVE ONLINE DRAFT. Owners should arrive 10 minutes before their draft is scheduled to begin. When your draft is set to begin, choose the OWNERS option from the menu on your leagues home page. Then select the DRAFT option. This will take you to the Live Online Draft Room. Once there, login to your franchise and you will be ready to draft, or if you like, perform a predraft. The draft will not begin until the team with the first overall pick makes their selection. (We strongly suggest that you familiarize yourself with the Live Online Draft Room and the predrafting process before your draft actually begins.) Each owner will have the opportunity to predraft for any round before and during the draft. We recommend predrafting, because it speeds up the draft and enables owners to be prepared when it is their turn to draft.
Owners will select their players in a serpentine draft. Owners will have 2 minute to make their selection per round. 12 team league drafts consist of 16 rounds. In a serpentine draft, the draft order rotates each round. The team with the first pick of the draft would draft first, the team with the second pick would draft second, and so on through the last pick in the round. In each following round, the order is reversed.
NOTE: Any pre-draft picks submitted by an owner will be selected as soon as it is that owner's turn to pick for that given pick of the draft. In other words, if you have submitted pre-draft picks for round 2 of your draft, as soon as the team before you in round 2 picks, the system will go through your pre-draft list at that time (even if you're actively logged into the draft!) and make your pick for you. If an owner has to step away from his computer for whatever reason during a live draft, he may want to pre-draft for an upcoming round or two while he is away, so the system can automatically make his picks for him. If for any reason an owner does not make their selection before their time is up; as soon as their time expires, our software will automatically select the best available player for that team. HOWEVER, if an owner misses two picks in a row, or three picks total throughout the draft, selections will be automatically made for them from that point on.
