    Dunno about Desktop, but on the phone app if go to the "Draft" tab bit on the main screen and choose "Preview" you can Queue players on the tab at the bottom from the list of players

    Edit: Just checked on Desktop, it's essentially the same. The Draft tab is in the middle, and there's a bit that says "Preview your draft lobby"

    Can't say, new to Sleeper dude. But I did find it accidentally, easily across the weekend.

    Is this a step u would do if u were about to draft in a few minutes, or did it look to be a save feature ?

    I would just google any related words, especially a certain players name plus fantasy 2020 etc. There are so many platforms out their with publications that it is gr8 to be able to read so many, if ur up for it. I dont have a certain publication or bible as a go to, but thats because I'm comfortable with my own summations.
    Its like how u follow the Nrl, if u feel like u know some Nfl teams/Coaches etc u can throw the Nfl ADP (Annual draft position) rankings out the window imo. Make ur own calls. Or u could preset ur draft picks based on the ADP and sleep through the draft.
    I love podcasts, they don't have to be spot on, just grist for the mill that gets u into an Nfl fantasy mindset. Nfl.com has a few podcasts i love - Move the Sticks, Around the Nfl and Nfl fantasy football podcast.

    I'm finding some of this year's ADP rankings way off, could be a draft where there's opportunity to really pick a gr8 team from day one.

    You needa get into Fantasy Footballers mate!

    @Wolfking, ADPs this year are all over the place. Podcasts have been great for me as in can listen to it while driving, mowing the lawn, drinking beer and whatnot.

    Alternatively, I'll shout ya a copy of the UDK. I swear by that thing.

    Oh yeah those guys are ok to, i just don't like a couple of the personalities on their podcasts. There is so much out their though. And like i eluded to, I'm not locked into any podcast to get info and steer me, it's just relaxing to listen to and mull over, keep afresh.

    Considering he probably would have been a semi popular pick yeah it is! Jags couldn't get any trade offers so looks like he's going on the waivers

    Yeah I'm at pick 6, and I am not sure what I'll do in the first 3 rounds, could get real loose early for me. I'm set on my first three picks, but mocks proving that I have no way of knowing who will be there this year.

    Are u wanting a certain guy at 5, or finding its always totally different guys available after pick 4 ?

    It's generally Cook at 5 in the first round which is fine. Round 2 on is a total crapshoot though. I think I'd prefer to be lower so I could at least package my picks somewhat.

    Well well

    He’ll end up somewhere, on a 1-2 year contract and get run into the ground. Same as leveon before the Steelers ditched him. Buccs would be a good fit for him.

    Bigger news is saints are shopping Kamara around. Like what. Their backups behind him are not starter quality and they’ve only got a short window left with Brees. It’s not the time to be getting rid of game winners.

    He wont go anywhere, the Saints are asking for a Round 1 pick and doubt any team wants to give it up to get an RB with the market as saturated as it is currently.

    Imo pick 6 is the worst. It is the first spot you can pull the trigger on a WR but is awkward when it gets back to you as who may be left at RB. At the same time it is crazy to consider some of the RB picks over Michael Thomas. Then the middle of the second is where guys like Lamar, Kittle, Kelce are starting to go and could be as valuable as mid tier RBs that round. Essentially you could make a shout for running 0 RB but it is gross at that spot.

    Best case scenario you land Kamara (If he drops) or grab Henry. Then hope Hopkins is there, or another decentish RB slips like Drake, Jacobs, or Sanders to pair up and look for someone like Odell, Schuster or Cooper for the third round.

    Kamara/Henry, Hopkins/Jacobs, Odell/Schuster as your first three.

    Kamara is special tho, he’s in an elite level, above the over saturated RB FA market. After the Johnson trade, a team could throw a second at them and not be close to the worst RB trade in the last off-season.
