Idea for Draft War Room

I had an idea to improve the draft war room.

Instead of only being able to select a position, or all except kickers, it would be nice if there were check boxes so you could customize the players that are displayed.

For example, I may only want to see FS, CB and MLB (for example).

I agree, also it would be better if during the first franchise draft they were listed by overall rating like a normal draft. Its really a lot of work sifting through them in draft room. I also would like to be able to put a # on where I rate this player on my draft board instead of putting player on list and then having to drag him from bottom to top. This is more do to that I usually will look under the search which is not in war room

I agree.

An easier way to manage your draft board would be great. It's a very slow and tedious process to rearrange players once I've added them to my board.

Even just a "move to top" option would be an improvement.

I agree that the allocation draft is quite unwieldy in its current state - thanks for the comments, I'll make a note and see if I can improve the draft experience using some of your ideas.

To be fair, the export to a spreadsheet is a great function. Once you have the draft class (or the free agents) in a spreadsheet, you can make any sort or selection that you want with a wealth of possibility that an html form will never be able to offer. Now, :), what a spreadsheet doesn't offer is the ability to select "all offensive linemen", or "any non kicker". Maybe a new "position type" column?

I use the data in a spreadsheet and it is very helpful. I use filters to select non kickers, etc. The issue is in then arranging and making changes to my draft board order in the war room.

I'm not complaining, just offering a suggestion. It's still a great game and I love being involved in it.
