++ Draft Buddy 2014 - Projections Updated: 9/2 ++

[Mike FF Today 607]

Draft Buddy - Here we go for year #14 of the DB!

 

The Draft Buddy is Excel-based and allows you to create customized cheatsheets for all your leagues and functions also a Draft tracker and manager. You can view screenshots of the program here.

 

System Requirements: The DB program requires a version of Microsoft Excel in order to function. The benefit of Excel is that Draft Buddy is both Windows and Mac compatible, with one exception - Microsoft lost their heads a few years ago and stripped out vital code making the DB incompatible with Mac Office 2008. The good news is, the DB does work with all other versions of Mac Office, including Mac Office 2011.

 

Purchase Info: You may make your purchase with your credit card through Paypal, or by check/money order. Order here Please make sure you are logged in with your FF Today Account BEFORE you make your purchase. It will make the purchase process much easier for you.

 

Login Help: If you have any trouble logging in after your purchase to download the Draft Buddy, please send us an email and we will assist you ASAP.

Projection Pal is now available. I added a link to the same download page where you get Draft Buddy.

 

Remember Pal is an optional add-on, to help import projections from other websites. Read the instructions carefully and check out the demo video:

First regularly scheduled projection update is ready as of now. Open your copy of Draft Buddy, go to the action tab and click the Update Projections button. This will update projections, ADP and depth charts.

[Mike MacGregor 20]

June 26th update is ready to roll! Looks like MK has Randall Cobb moving up, Joe Flacco moving down, Knowshon Moreno moving down, Jordan Matthews moving up. Not a lot of changes (for not a lot of news in the last week), but you are all set with latest projections, depth charts and ADP.

[Mike MacGregor 20]

7/3 update is in the books. Not a lot of changes with the lack of news, but a few tweaks throughout, plus ADP and depth charts updated.

[Mike MacGregor 20]

Not a lot of news but our 7/10 update saw a few tweaks to get us all ready and updated before training camps get rolling soon. Go to the action tab and click Update Projections.

[Mike MacGregor 20]

Not a lot of news = not much to update, but we are updated (projections, ADP, depth charts) as of 7/17, just in time for training camps that start NEXT WEEK! Woot!

[Mike MacGregor 20]

A little late today, thanks to Sidney Rice, Ray Rice, and more relevant news in the past 24 hours than we've seen in 2 weeks, but we are all up to date - projections, depth charts and ADP. Cheers!

 

[Mike MacGregor 20]

Busy morning already! 7/31 update is in the house - projections, depth charts and ADP all updated. The latest and greatest as a result of training camp news. Early bird special ends after today!

[Mike MacGregor 20]

8/7 update is done, just in time for preseason to get going, tonight! (Ignoring the HOF game.) Open Draft Buddy, go to the action tab and hit Update Projections*.

 

* If you've already input keepers or draft picks or draft pick trades or a custom draft order (anything you changed on auction or draft report tabs), make sure to change the reset options on the action tab to "no" before Compiling Cheatsheets.

[Mike MacGregor 20]

Who is drafting this weekend? 8/14 update is ready!

[Mike MacGregor 20]

8/21 update is up! Updated projections, depth charts and ADP, all in time for start of Week 3 preseason and many a fantasy draft this weekend (including me, Saturday night). Where is the "two running backs smoking some weed" emoticon? This will have to do…

 

 

and for Steelers fans:

 

[Mike MacGregor 20]

An unscheduled update! 8/25 - as a result of the Welker concussion and Bradford ACL out for the year news

 

Hit Update Projections (action tab) for new projections, depth charts and ADP.

 

[Mike MacGregor 20]

Next to last schedule update is ready! 8/28 - updated projections, depth and ADP. Big move: Jamaal Charles dropped from #1 to #2. Chiefs fans are concerned about that OL. Eagles fans are

Is there an update coming on Sep 1 after all the cuts? Have my first drafts on Sep 2.

[Mike MacGregor 20]

Hi DAGAME. Geez, first draft. You've been patient! The last update is scheduled for Sept 2, which means it should be done early in the day that day. We'll do our best.

[Mike FF Today 607]

Should be ready for you early Tuesday morning DAGAME.

9/2 update is ready! The Saints still don't have a kicker, but I think we've otherwise figured out the kicker roulette. Derek Carr moves up to #1 in Oakland. Gronk is set to play Week 1. Week 1 is here! Woo!
