Where is the option to do a mock draft?

When you are looking at your team click on the draft kit link near the top of the screen. I found a link to the mock draft lobby in the lower left of the draft kit screen. Then I just selected an auction draft.

Mock drafts are a necessity if you haven't drafted in the auction format previously. Ive been doing a standard draft format for 15+ years ... took a peek at the auction style and was COMPLETELY lost. I've run through a couple mock auctions, and while I get the jist of it, the strategy part is soooooo much different than the standard draft.

To recap:

Mock Drafts -- Do Them!

Just a reminded that the draft is tomorrow evening. Please do the mock drafts so you have an idea as what to expect. Trust me you will regret it if you don't.

I'll have a better chance if you don't do the mock drafts -- please don't prepare at all. Wing it. It's way more fun that way. :D

I'm not doing any more mock drafts. I have figured out how to spend all $200 on my first 3 picks so I'm all set!

I've been trying to get into one but no luck. After we spend 200 then we can't buy another player? I didn't see anyone for less than a dollar???

Correct. You have to buy all of your players with that 200. So you can't just blow your money on 3 players, you will need to budget and spend accordingly :tu

Or you go with a 3-player lineup.

I signed up,got registered, and have no idea how it works and no interest in figuring it out.
Sofamas was supposed to help, but he's on vacation this week.
I hope it'll auto-pick my team, or I'm gonna be going with a pretty slim zero player roster. :D

It will auto pick. I went to the rules section and read up on auction drafts. It explains it pretty well. Sounds like a free-for-all:wo

I'm pretty sure it will bid up to the desired price you enter for each player you want.

The system wont let you blow all your cash on three players.

Make sure you test out an auction draft Bao. You can bid on every player available in an auction draft.....well until you run out of money that is.

yeah, make sure it's an AUCTION style draft. Basically each person nominates a player for auction and the bidding progresses. This happens until all teams are completed.
