Glad you downloaded again and got version 1.2, because sounds like you didn't have it previously. There were some unknown at the time runtime errors happening in the newest version of Excel - particularly for Mac. Mac user? Anyway, one thing I've also just discovered is with Mac Excel 2016, it doesn't seem to like the back-to-back Update Projections and then Compile Cheatsheets processes. It very likely updated the projections properly, but just doesn't want to re-sort the players via the Compile Cheatsheets macro. What you can do is Update. Say No to Compile. Then Compile separately. Now the cheatsheets should look a-okay. That do the trick?

Well, if no team ever keeps more than 2 I could see switching that half over to RB for 3 backups there.

Okay, for the first one I would input this: Starters: QB = 1, RB = 2, WR = 3, TE = 1, K = 1, DEF = 1 (9 total) Backups: QB = 1.5, RB = 2.5, WR = 3, TE = 1, K = 0.5, DEF = 0.5 (9 total) For the second one: Starters: QB = 1, RB = 2, WR = 3, TE = 1, O-Flex = 1, K = 1, DEF = 1 (10 total) Backups: QB = 1.5, RB = 2.5, WR = 3, TE = 1, K = 0, DEF = 0 (8 total) Make sure to check off RB, WR and TE as being included in the Flex.

8/27 update is done. Go to the action tab > Update Projections. Some changes in the Pats receivers, Connor Barth on the move, Le'Veon Bell down (Pouncey) and other changes. Now hold tight for the biggest preseason weekend of the season starting Friday.

Are there picks there in the 14th round or is the draft report a little short? My guess is it updated automatically to an extent based on your changed settings from the default, but you need to hit Compile Cheatsheets to fully refresh Draft Buddy for the new settings. Go to the action tab, hit Compile Cheatsheets, and then let me know if it looks right or not.

Thanks Rob for the heads up. That was an oversight. We updated the projections, forgot to change the depth chart. I've changed the Draft Buddy update pages now showing the proper GB WR depth chart.

Any decent buddy is always good for a pint or two, so I wouldn't put it past him However, for Forte specifically it is the receptions that are doing it. I see him at 6th (at RB) in our default scoring, but change it to PPR and he jumps to 2nd. If the league is RB heavy - which most are, top of the overall rankings - then he will be 2nd overall. I know everyone is expecting the receptions to decline off last year's gaudy number, and we have that too, but still a very healthy 68 recepts is what Mike K. has for him, matching Le'Veon Bell. Makes a big difference. If you aren't keen to invest that pick in Forte, then you can easily adjust the projections or perhaps even better, adjust the rankings right on the cheatsheets to move him down to a spot you are more comfortable taking him.

It is now up! action tab > Update Projections for the latest projections, plus depth charts and ADP.

You can adjust them. The best way that is coming to me right now is open up a hidden tab called calcs (Format > Unhide Sheet) and there you will find a long list of players that make up the overall rankings. There is a yellow highlighted column of cells that are the pre-inflation auction values (after you've hit Compile Cheatsheets for an auction league). Simply change those manually, and I believe they should update on the cheatsheets automatically. Then try the re-rank buttons to re-sort them.

And of course if anything else major happens - please no - then we will do an additional update for that.

Interesting enough the baseball version of Draft Buddy does this because it is a lot more prevalent in fantasy baseball that a player is eligible for multiple positions. But the way that works there is completely different than the way the football version functions, and not really an option. Here is what I would suggest for this: 1. Find a player on the LB tab who is eligible for DL. Highlight his name, team, bye week and copy (CTRL-C). 2. Go to the DL tab, scroll to the bottom and find one of the "Add Player" lines and paste him there. 3. Now return to the LB tab, scroll across for that player and highlight and copy only the yellow section with the FF Today projections for that player. 4. Paste those projections on the DL tab in the same spot ... no, check that... under the Site B section and so they line up with your new player added to the DL tab. 5. Repeat for all other players. How many are there? 6. Now, since the projections on the DL tab are in the Site B section, we need to change the default allocation key to 100% Site B just for those players. See the two "+" signs at the top of the tab? Click the first one and a yellow highlighted column will appear. In that we want to put a new default key number for each of the new players. Use the one that gives 100% Site B as shown on your options tab. 7. Hit Compile Cheatsheets. Players should be in both lists with exact same name (so if you draft one I think it will grey out both) and the two position players should be ranked higher in the DL list. Let us know how that goes, or if you need clarification of anything.

Hi. No, Draft Buddy does not support this. I'd have to think about how we might be able to trick Buddy into doing it. What are your starting lineup requirements for IDP?

No one wants to give out their secret formula I guess!

Sure, send it over when you can. compiler@fftoday.com

On the action tab, Update Projections will do the trick.

Hi Greg. Probably something wrong with the draft report tab. Check that, and does it look accurate? From there if not then we probably have an issue with the settings on the rules tab. Number of draft rounds perhaps? What is that set to?

Does it do that for all of the sounds, or just that one or a few? I'll try them on my computer too.

Yes, the sounds play in QuickTime on the Mac as Excel cannot play them directly. What I find is it is easier to just leave QuickTime open after it is opened the first time and hit Play/Pause from there. A bunch of sounds can be opened and stay open in separate windows at one time. First I've heard about converting and that isn't happening on my Mac. What are you prompted to do?

What version of Draft Buddy do you have Detwa? I'm not seeing that here. I think one of the original versions we had up might have been grabbing data from last year's update files (although it didn't seem to impact everyone). Is that what you are seeing? How are the numbers looking on your cheatsheets? Richardson should be projected for around 30 points, standard scoring.

Just came here to say the same thing.

8/20 update is ready. Goodbye Kelvin Benjamin Hello Devin Funchess (up) and Corey/Philly Brown and Jerricho Cotchery and even Jarrett Boykin . Hey, stranger things have happened. Boykin was a thing once. You'll notice none are projected with great expectations by any means, so Cam is down. Other movement: Stafford up, McCoy down, Johnny Stewart up, Abdullah up, Martellus up, Bills QB all over the place ... and who cares except Bills fans like me
