Watch Positional Trends
It's always a good idea to keep a accurate record of the selections during your auction drafts. This can pay dividends in future years, particularly if you play with the same owners from year to year. For this reason, Dominate Your League's Draft Pick Analyzer uses "Positional Weights" so that the user can adjust how much money to put towards a certain position. The Draft Pick Analyzer also defaults to certain percentages based on historical auction draft data from our records just in case you don't have historical data from your auction drafts or are new to auction-style fantasy football drafts. So what does this mean for you?
Accuracy and Preparedness in Predicting Value
IF your owners typically spend only 5% of their allocated salary cap towards Defenses each year (on average), it doesn't make sense to spend 15% on your Defense does it? Not unless that Defense is rediculously good!!!
One of the fundamental difficulties of drafting a fantasy football auction draft is being able to accurately assess player salaries based on your league's unique scoring system and historical draft tendencies. This is why Dominate Your League developed the Draft Pick Analyzer to help you accurately asses these values within a matter of seconds. The rationale is that each position is not valued equally. You should never spend as much on your kicker as you do your starting quarterback. Quarterback's are much more valuable and there is a larger discrepancy in the points per game with quarterbacks than with kickers. That's why owners don't spend as much on kickers. You can always get a kicker cheap that will be a good performer in comparison to his peers at his position. That's just the reality of fantasy football. The basis for having different positional weights is that all positions are not created equal and are not treated equally in drafts. The Draft Pick Analyzer can help you to quickly sort this out. You only have a limited amount of money to spend and want to get the most points per game for your money.
Another fundamental difficulty in drafting in an auction-style Fantasy Football Draft is in the beginning of the draft where you are trying to get a feel for the other owners and their spending habits. In the beginning of the draft, player salaries are often inflated and are also often undervalued because owners are either too eager to bid or too timid. By knowing the historical values that each position usually go for in your draft will allow you to instantly assess whether you should bid on a player or abstain. Let the other owners guess. With good preparation, you will dominate your draft and subsequently dominate your league.
Auction drafts are all about getting the most for your money. Knowing the Positional Trends and incorporating them into your pre-draft values and fantasy football cheat sheets will give you an accurate means by which to bid on your players. If you need help in figuring out your values, Dominate Your League offers the Draft Pick Analyzer drafting tool.
