PPR Mock Drafts Are Finally Here!

Kevin Day, June 20th, 2010

PPR Mock Drafts are finally here!  Just head on to the mock draft page, and click on the PPR/Flex tab to see drafts that are being offered in that format.

It’s been by far the most requested addition, and you can rest now that it’s officially part of the site.

The scoring format for the PPR drafts also include a change to the starting lineup.  Instead of 3 WRs, it’s now 2 WRs and a RB/WR flex.  That kind of format seems to be one of the most popular, and fits well with the one point per reception.

The rankings for the PPR drafts are nearly identical to the standard drafts at the moment.  However, as more PPR drafts are conducted, the rankings for the PPR drafts will eventually reflect more accurate PPR rankings over the course of the next few days.

Also, the ADP page will show average draft positions for PPR/Flex drafts after a few days worth of data have been built up.

Lastly, premium members have the new PPR/Flex option in the Draft Calculator and Draft Simulator as well.  If you have one of those formats for your main league, you’ll now be able to more accurately practice with that draft format.

Have fun mocking!

thank you so much for introducing mock PPR drafts. especially with the 2 WR with Flex lineup!!

Love the site. Thank you for what you’ve done. However, now that there is a PPR draft the 12-team non-PPR draft comes around every 1/2 hour. That’s crazy, right? The PPR draft has nearly all 12-team drafts and the non-PPR has nearly none. Would an even split be better?

Nice job you guys. Your site is a godsend, and the fact that it is free is incredible. This is probably my most-visited website every summer, and will continue to be as the site keeps improving. Thanks again.

This Rocks!! fantasyfootballcalculator.com just became the best mock draft site on the net!!

I checked out the site again today and it appears that my concerns have been alleviated – I saw 5 12-team standard drafts available right away. Thanks guys, like I said you are the best. It’s just that right after the change there was a severe shortage of 12-team drafts.

PS
Have you ever considered – I’m sure you have – doing an auction fantasy football calculator? Wow! Super awesome that would be. That would be something I would pay for because I know you guys would do it right. Right now the other sites out there have auctions by email but I think it would be best if we could all just have a quick 3-hour auction where we have a commish select players for bidding, and then have teams enter in values, with 60 seconds elapsing between each pick.

Thanks guys!

Regarding draft frequency, there was a small hiccup while the new format was added, but it should be pretty settled and back to normal now. I try to make sure the wait times are as short as possible while also keeping the drafts full.

On auctions, it’s always a possibility for the future, but it isn’t planned for this year. I’ll keep it in mind though.

WOOT!!!!! THANK YOU MAN!!!

[...] FantasyFootballCalculator.com is now offering Points Per Reception (PPR) mock drafts.  I decided to jump in for one today and man did those WRs go fast! 10 gone in the first two rounds. PPR was what many people said the site was lacking and now they have it. Check out our friend Kevin’s blog post on it HERE. [...]

When are you going to actually update your player projections and bye weeks to reflect 2010? I just bought the ‘premium’ package and all the data is still from 2009.

my money league will use the same startng positions as in the ppr format u have here but my league is stanard scoring. i’ve had complaints from both lobbies when i draft because of my in-between format. i never expected to have to choose my picks to make the people in the room happy, i thought my picks were supposed to make me happy. please contact me to tll me which lobby i shouldpractice in. thanks.

Dave on

I requested PPR drafts and you delivered. Many thanks.
You also have the easiest-uncomplicated-fastest draft site
on the Web. Great job.

Dave,

I think the scoring (PPR) is more important than starting positions.
I’ll never find a site with the flex positions my league has so I understand your dilemma.
you could try drafting each teams picks. Draft the way you think you’re
league opponents would draft or the way you would draft at their positions.
Just an idea.

Good luck,
John

Nice addition I think I have called for it 100 times in the last few years. The only thing that isn’t exactly the same as most leagues is we use 2 RB, 3 WR and 1 flex not 2/2 and a flex.

Henry on

Ok I see 1 big problem I see 1 12 man PPR draft and it is 45 mins away. Yet I see 3 10 man PPR drafts in a row ? ARGGGGGGGGGG 12 man PPR is the norm for high stakes leagues. Should be more of them then any other also why 3 straight 10 man ? GRRRRRRRRRRRR

Henry on

Your doing standard every 90 secs and doing PPR every 9 mins ? that is a huge difference. You should be doing PPR about every 5 mins and rotating the 12 man league in every other one so it happens every 10 mins.

Henry on

First, I just want to say thank you again! I will be upgrading my membership now! I don’t want to sound greedy but it would be great if you could update the PPR ADP so I can study it up. And if the drafts frequency went up I wouldn’t be made. Thanks again and this really is the best draft site I have found.

Deez Sacks on

Awesome stuff and now PPR ADPs are up too!!! Any chance players get re-ranked for PPR scoring? I think the order of players in the queue affects drafting order (especially in a mock). Just an idea, but great stuff! (also, my PPR league has 3 WRs and a RB/WR flex spot too, but maybe we’re in the minority?)

Ian on

Thanks for the great feedback everyone. It’s great to see the PPR drafts being well received. Regarding draft times, they have been adjusted so that there is less of a delay for PPR drafts. The demand for those was higher than initially expected and the wait times should stay short from now on.

Ian, the rankings in the draft room should now be based on PPR rankings instead of the standard scoring. Regarding the 3WRs and RB/WR flex, that seems to be slightly less popular than 2WR + flex from what I’ve seen. I know it would be nice to have it exactly like your format, but it’s difficult to match everyone’s league settings. Hopefully the new format gets closer to what you use.

what happened to 14 team ppr drafts they stopped ?
