Fantasy drafts
The most fun day in the season. The draft day!
There are two types of drafting used to select players: the snake draft and the auction draft. In a snake draft, the first round is drafted in order. In the second round, the draft order is reversed so that the manager who made the last pick in the first round gets the first pick in the second round.
In an auction draft, each manager has a set budget that he or she must use to fill out the team’s roster. Players are put up for auction by managers, and the manager willing to pay the most for the player “drafts” that player. The advantage of an auction is that all managers have equal access to all players (not the case in a snake draft).
