General Rules for those who have joined, if you've questions send me a note:

1-you need to register a yahoo ID (www.yahoo.com)
2-30 minutes before the draft, yahoo will randomly create a draft pick sequence. The first round goes top to bottom pick, but the second and alternating goes bottom to top - for equity
3-15 rounds. your 9 starters will be 2-RB (running backs), 1-QB (quarterback), 3-WR (wide receivers), 1-TE (tight end), 1-Def (Defensive team) and 1-K (kicker). 6 bench players, often one backup for each position (due to byes and injuries or whatever) but it's your choice. People often select players in the above sequence, but it's however you choose.
4-yahoo does player rankings that will be visible to you and you can scroll through them (and study them in advance which I suggest). To select a player, simply click on the player's name to highlight and then click the big "DRAFT" button.
5-there is a small "chat box" on the bottom right, if you have a question during the draft you can ask it and I'll try to reply.
6-scoring is explained on the league screen. so many yards for a touchdown, for yards running or receiving, etc. monitor your players to check for byes or injuries.
7-you can trade with the other teams. Drop and add players, etc. from the free agent pool (those not drafted)

Good luck and just enjoy.
