The "big" news is that Yahoo! now offers free-live score updating, so it is now on-par with ESPN's system. I think I actually preferred waivers on Yahoo! last year compared to ESPN's "tues. set, thurs. claim., sun. lock" method. It was confusing to say the least.
Now that I have been tinkering with Yahoo!'s mock draft lobby, I can honestly say that autopicking sucks. I tried some 15-20 rounds over the past 3 days, and it has become evident to me that if you miss your Yahoo! live draft, you will invariably struggle/lose in your league.
I don't know if other fantasy football providers allow you to choose a picking-option for each round,
e.g. Rd 1-RB Rd 2-RB or WR Rd 3-QB or WR Rd 4-WR or TE, etc.
but the way Yahoo!'s autopicking aims to fill your starting roster first, then draft 1 backup RB and QB, 2 backup WRs, and a backup kicker really defeats the purpose of creating your own draft rankings.
