Ok dokie, all picks are mine (CAR), and yet my orderof pick is all over the place. Not sure what gives, or what occurred (forgive me, not doing the homework on other teams), but I have a feeling this is not right.

Draft begins in 7 days. (2/18)

if teams have the same record they rotate each round for the rest of the draft. Not sure if that's the rules in nfl but that's how mfn has done it since i've been here

does not fit: Miami, CLE (both 0-6D:1-11C), CAR (0-6D:1-11C), MIN (1-5D:2-10C) all have 2-14 records, and - it is pretty clear who should be in the top 3 unless there were trades.

My team, CAR, had 0 trades, and should in no way be less than a top 3 pick, even with a rotating, weird NBA style lotto for the top 3 (total poo-poo if the case) - much less have a pick that changes position every round (even out of top 3). All draft picks should be 100% be based on record and breakers - period - and thus a consistent pick position in each round. Absolutely so when no draft picks were traded.

If new leagues have NBA style lotto madness, that is very crippling. And if so, when the heck can a player start to depend on draft position after a new league starts?


I took a challenge, a bad team in a new league. I was counting on a reliable draft pick situation, not this rotating bizzaroland that goes out of what my record dictates as far as draft order that I have never, ever seen in thge 2 established leagues I also play (and started with).
VERY annoying, and a major turnoff if I were a Playmate :P

tenn got a pick from a trade, otherwise the bottom four teams all had the same records. I'm not sure about the tite breakers but in my experience it uses the conf records and stuff only for the first round and then each round it rotates the teams. So your team will get one of the top four picks each round but in a rotation. I know in the nfl when two teams tie they have a coin flip for the first round and then it rotates the two teams each round after. You should message jdb if it's that important to you. Two of the four teams are AI at least lol
