Rookie Draft Begins MONDAY JUNE 5 at 9am Eastern
The Rookie Draft website is at http://www.aaroncraneinstitute.com/football/apcfb_rookiedraft/
Everyone EXCEPT TURIN is still registered from last season. If you forgot your password, let me know. I can't reset it, but I can delete it allowing you to re-register for the draft site.
No software changes since last season. However, the emailing of picks has been wonky, so be sure to check the draft site regularly.
Please log in and look over your draft picks to make sure they are accurate. If you find any errors, please communicate that immediately. Instructions for the draft site can be found at http://www.aaroncraneinstitute.com/football/miscfiles/KRFL%20Draft%20Instructions.pdf
Once you log in you will be able to set up your Player Priority List.
PLEASE remember to set AutoPick to 15 minutes under GM Options if you are going to use it to pick.
Trading will be allowed during the draft, but....Trades have be announced AND confirmed in the appropriate forum on the league website by 10PM Eastern the day before the round begins. So if you wanted to trade a 4th round draft pick, it would need to be announced and confirmed by 10PM Eastern the day the 3rd round ends.
I will monitor the draft as best I can. Email me if you have any issues. However, be aware that I am at work during the day and not always available. So I may not be able to response to your emails immediately. My mobile phone number is listed on the front page of the draft website.

PLEASE READ AND FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS
>DECLINE PICK - NEVER, EVER click Decline Pick. If you do it will wipe out other team's picks, stop the draft and cause the Commissioner a lot of work to recreate the draft. So do not ever click on Decline Pick if you see it next to your pick or anyone else's pick.
>AUTOPICK TIME under GM Options. PLEASE log into the draft website, go to the GM Options tab and set "Turn on AutoPick to After" to 15 minutes. Please do this even if you do not intend to use the autopick feature. The software has a tendency to randomly reset it to 10 minutes, so please check it each time you log into the draft website
>UNSKIPPING A PICK when Auto Pick is turned ON. If your pick is skipped, and you click UNSKIP next to the pick to "unskip" it, be aware that if you have Autopick turned On and you have players listed in your player priority list, the software with automatically make your pick IMMEDIATELY when you click Unskip. If that is not your intention, uncheck AutoPick under GM Options (which turns it off) BEFORE you Unskipping the draft pick. That will allow you to manually select a player to pick.
>MOVING PLAYERS ON PLAYER PRIORITY LIST - When clicking the double arrows to move a player to the top of the priority list, there is a lag in the software. Be patient, the screen will refresh in a few seconds.
