Entering Draft Picks on Desktop
With your draft loaded, hit the green Start Draft button. If you’ve chosen a mock draft, the Dominator will automatically begin making draft picks until it’s your turn. You can adjust the speed of these picks with the speed slider bar at the bottom of the draft board.
For a real draft, you must manually enter picks for your team and the rest of the league as the draft progresses. When it’s your turn to draft, you have two selection options. The quickest way is to click on the little blue checkmark next to the player’s name from your Cheat Sheet.
Alternatively, you can click on a player and pull up his entire bio on the right, along with a quick overview. There’s also an assortment of other info you can click through in this section, including the player's schedule (with projected points for that week), team depth charts, recent news, and a notes page. On the bottom, click the blue pick button to make the selection or click to the left of the popup to close it.
To make selections for other fantasy teams, click on the fantasy GM’s name from the list of picks on the left. This will pull up the ADP rankings and present players accordingly (you can also sort by position or search for a player). Select the blue checkmark to make a selection.
This screen will stay open, allowing you to quickly enter picks as your draft progresses. If you accidentally make a wrong pick for a team, you can click that GM and then click on the correct player’s blue checkmark. This will allow you to swap the players or insert the player, which will move all picks down after it is down (you can also reset all draft picks to this spot). Once you’re on the clock, the screen will close, reverting to your Cheat Sheet on the main screen. If you wish to view the draft board anytime, click the blue Expand button near the top left.
Entering Draft Picks on Mobile
The mobile version has a slightly different layout than the desktop version, but functionality is essentially the same.
After you’ve loaded a draft from the New Draft button at the top right, the Dominator defaults to your Cheat Sheet with the draft paused. Tap the Paused button at the bottom and then tap the green Start Draft button at the top right. In the case of a mock, the Dominator will auto-fill picks until it’s your turn. In a real draft, you will need to manually enter each pick. And like the desktop version, you have three ways to make selections.
The first method is the fastest. Hold and swipe right on a player until you see a blue pick checkmark appear to the left of the player’s name. Release to make the selection; swipe left to avoid making the selection.
Alternatively, tap on a player and hit the blue Pick button from the popup. You can also expand the player’s outlook, news, schedule, etc., by tapping those options below the player’s name. In both cases, you select a player from the Cheat Sheet view.
Tap the blue clock icon next to the Cheat Sheet to select players for other fantasy teams. From here, tap on a GM’s name and select a player by hitting the blue checkmark. Like the desktop version, this view will stay open, allowing you to quickly enter draft selections.
Offline Drafting and Printing Cheat Sheets
One of the best features the Draft Dominator offers is the ability to use it without an internet connection. This is especially handy when you end up in a basement or an establishment with spotty internet. The Draft Dominator will function perfectly as normal even if the internet doesn’t. Note, however, that you can’t access an offline draft with different devices. This means that if you’re drafting offline on your laptop, you won’t have access to that draft on your phone until you connect to the internet again, at which point the Dominator will sync up.
You can also print out cheat sheets either as a physical copy, or export them as a CSV for Excel. Both options exist under Settings at the top left for the desktop version (select Print Cheat Sheet). On mobile, tap the Draft gears icon, then Export Cheat Sheet under Draft Actions.
If you need help or more information, head to the More menu (top right on desktop, bottom right on mobile), and select Help and Support. And as always, thanks for being a part of Footballguys!
