How-To Guide

Step-By-Step Directions

​Below are detailed instructions / notes to guide you through your experience:

​

• Yellow Highlighted Cells: All lightly yellow filled cells are the "user input" cells. For most of these cells, there are drop down menus associated with the cell in order to help simplify your experience. 

• Detailed Instructions on Each Tab: Please ensure to reference the detailed instructions on each tab or view the "notes" found on specific cells throughout the document.

​

1. Rules Tab: You should start your experience by going to the rules tab and input all of the relevant league, draft, roster, and scoring information. Once you input these features, the sheet will be completely customized to your specific league needs.

   • Refresh Data: Before starting your draft, you should click the "refresh" button on this tab to update all player, ranking, and projection information. This action will take 1-2 minutes to complete once you click.​

   • Resetting Draft / Settings: There are also buttons to clear the relevant information throughout the document. Keep in mind you can't "un-do" this action once it's clicked. This action will take 1-2 minutes to complete once you click. 

2. Yellow Tabs (Next to Rules): All of these should be self-explanatory, but you have the option to implement all of the following within these tabs:

   • Keepers​

   • Pick Trades

   • Personal Ranks (Targets & Avoids)

   • Mock Drafts

3. In-Draft Summary: You will spend most of your time during your draft in this tab. While it may look intimidating at first, make sure to familiarize yourself ahead of time of all the tools and resources that are at your disposal. Below are the key features and notes:

   • Submitting Picks: You can submit picks using three different methods (I find method 2 to be the easiest and most efficient):

     1. Typing the Name and Submitting: In the top left corner, you can type in the name of the pick and click submit. This method with take precedence over any other method.

     2. Clicking on Name Anywhere in the Document and Clicking Submit: You can click / hover in any cell of the document and hit submit - worth noting if you have a name written into the top cell (option 1), it will take the name written in option 1 as preference. 

     3. Manually Submit Picks: You can "expand the draft" using the button below submit and type in the name into the yellow shaded cells. 

     • There are also buttons to revert the pick and to see / edit draft results manually if you run into issues.​

     • You won't be able to submit a name that has already been drafted

     • You won't be able to submit a name or cell that isn't included in the draft pool (i.e. if you click T. Tagovailoa instead of "Tua Tagovailoa" then it will give you an error.

   • Yellow Cells: As mentioned above, there are yellow cells throughout this tab in which you can edit your experience (sort by different information, highlight teams, implement picks, etc.)

   • Key Features Available on this Tab: 

     • ​Team Outlooks

     • Roster Information

     • Draft Trends

     • Best Available (By Position and Overall)

     • Player Tiers (by ADP and VBD)

     • Pick Probability

     • Mock Pick Trading / Player Selection

     • Recent Picks

     • Projected Standings (3 different models)

4. Deep-Dive Tabs (Purple Tabs): These tabs take a deep dive at a lot of the information provided in the in-draft summary. These include the following:

   • Draft Board​

   • Pick Probability

   • Player Tiers

   • Team View

   • ADP / Ranking Trends

   • Team Depth Charts

5. Post-Draft Summary: This can be used during the draft, but this slide will give a high level summary of projected standings, pick values, and draft results.

6. Start a New Draft: If you have multiple drafts, you will have the ability to save a new file of the same document and simply "reset the draft" in the rules tab to re-use the same document.
