1.Secure last years stats & rosters for reference

2. Begin by listing ALL players you think will be drafted
       a 10 team league..needs 10 1b  + 10  3rd base + 10 combo 1sr/3rd = 30 players

3.Put $ anounts next to all players
       a use tier system for player $ comparison
       b..add all player $ making sure the $ anount = amount spent at draft (EXACT)
            (10 teams @ $ 260 to spend = $2,600)
       c allow for keepers..If Braun was $1  last year ,he will be kept  etc(most are obvious)

4.Using your $ amounts construct teams that work
       a Using last years stats as reference ,project HR & SB  .generally, (Good HR = Good RBi, Good SB = Good runs)
       c. Dont draft BA under 265
       c  Dont draft ERA over 3.6   WHIP over 1.35
       d  Make MANY teams untill comfortable

5. After feeling comfortable with a team you have made:
       a.Select alternative player that give equivalent stats
       b.not necessary to get alternates at same position
              1b @ $25  along with $10 OF
              may become $25 Of ..$10 1b

6. Use + - at draft
         (You have Lowell valued at $20 and he goes $15..draft is under $5)
         ( You have Ortiz valued at $30 and he goes $35..Draft is over $5)

7. If draft goes to + 65 or over =  sit tight for bargains
    If draft goes - 65 or under= get a player

8. Dont get caught bu having only 1 player at any position who gives you stats you need

I'm in a straight points based H2H league and I'd like to see some strategies for drafts related to that type of league. I'd say the basics can be used by this, but most of the time when you see this type of helpful information, it's usually geared to Roto.

This applies to drafting a team in ANT format for ANY sport Thanks

I've always wondered how to value players... How would I go about valuing players in my NL-Only Keeper league. It's a 6x6 league (with holds and doubles+triples counted).

My friends and I are starting up a new league this year. It will be the first time that many of us have been in an aution style draft. I have been doing my homework as far as draft strategies go, but I have no idea what the bidding patterns will be like. It is a keeper league so I want to have a few people on the team that have potential to be sud keepers at a low price. Do you have any advice on a good draft strategy to use?
