Hi kherren. Is this on Windows? Someone else showed me this not long ago and the weird thing is it works on my Windows computer - same version of Excel - and didn't on theirs, or yours. Not sure what the difference is, and haven't been able to figure it out. I think best advice I can give right now is open the sound files in a different program, the ones you want to use, and hit play/stop/rewind in that program to use for your live draft. That should give you more control than from inside Draft Buddy.

I just spent a while answering eight questions from a new user (welcome!) and thought some or all of this might be helpful to others... Email received: and email response:

One more update. Scheduled update anyway.

One to go!

Hi T.M. Great username and avatar btw. Memories. lol. No, no partnership with Rotowire. Oh... what I put in Draft Buddy initially is projections from FantasyPros - their consensus projections. Now, those are from back in June, I would not suggest using them. There must be some significant changes since then. I was testing Projection Pal, used the FantasyPros projections, and ended up putting them in Draft Buddy in the "Site B" (second) yellow section on each of the position tabs. So I think you should import the Rotowire projections like you used to if you want to stick with that method. Overwrite the projections that are in that section. Thanks and have a great season!

Hi big D. The FantasyPros projections have a small problem. They include the player's team in the same table cell as the player's name, so you need to do some data cleaning to get that out of there before the data will properly transfer to the Clean tab. Do you see that? Where it used to have "Josh Allen" on the Raw tab it is now "Josh Allen BUF". You can kind of see on the QB Raw tab how I cleaned the data in some of those columns to the right of the projections. First, copy the names and paste them to the right of the data (you can use the same columns I used before). Then highlight all of those names and split the data by space using Data > Text To Columns > Delimited > Space. Now combine the first + last names using a simple formula like "=N11&" "&O11" and copy, paste special it back to the original names on the left side. Clean tab look better now?

Started created some new Draft Buddy how to videos posted to YouTube. These are more about the information than the video production quality! Listed here, I will put each one in its own post. Feel free to ask questions. 1. Quick start, rules and scoring setup 2. MyFantasyLeague.com integration, franchise names and draft results 3. Update projections (plus adp, depth) and compile cheatsheets

Welcome back everyone. 25 years! That's crazy.

Hi SJ. We did just update in the last hour, do you think maybe you got one from last Thursday just before we published the one this morning? Or I wonder if it is a timezone difference thing? Hmm... A good way to tell is this... check the projections from FF Today for Rashee Rice, since that is one of the players that FFT Mike changed in this update. You should see a "U" under the change column, and these projections on the WR tab: https://ibb.co/q9K9DnX

If you deleted them off those tabs, then yes, they will come back. I would do this: Zero out the projections for the players. Don't change their projections, because an update will replace your change, but instead do this: Go to the position tab and unhide the columns hidden by the first "+" sign near the top of the tab. Then change the allocation key for the players you want to zero out. Use one that is 0% for all sites (like #13) and you'll see right away the projected fantasy points go to zero. Once you've done all players, hit Compile Cheatsheets. Image: https://ibb.co/mcxYHp7

In terms of others, try to look for ones with a CSV download. That tends to be easier than the web query, because you can open the CSV in Excel and then copy/paste them into the position-Raw tabs. FantasySharks used to have a CSV download. I haven't checked that in a bit. 4for4.com has that, but it is subscriber only.

Hi Cretins. I have just the video for you. The issue with FantasyPros projections is they jam the player name and team together in one field. So when you update those projections, the names no longer match. Check out this video:
