In the edit draft order page, how about clicking on up-down arrows to change the order of players rather than having to drag each player to the desired spot? Usually, by the time I'm done dragging everything and click submit, I've already timed out and have to do it all over again. The boxscores popping up doesn't make it easier too.

It would save time, make the process smoother, and make it easier to navigate the whole list (which spans longer than one visible page).

Edit: Oh, and make it so that more than one player is selectable so that you can move a bunch of players in one click (like all those 3-star-rating-and-below players)

personally this could become hard, when you put the weak draftees on the end of the draft list, and had to pull hundreds times on the down buttom.

The most simple would be to write the number of order.

Well I did suggest that we be able to highlight more than one player at once, kind of like in the tactics page where you can highlight more than one player to insert/remove from the rotation

I think that the draft order was edited like that in the beginning, and it demanded much more effort than today's system. If you wanted to change the order of the original #1 player of your draft and put him on #48, that meant 48 clicks... for just one player...
I think the best would be the possibility of just write down the order of each player...

Well I'd rather have to click 48 times for one player (how often would that be though?) than drag 10+ players from top to bottom (which is more often the case).

Edit: Granted that I would need to move a player from #1 to #48, why not then just add 2 more buttons, one to send the player all the way to the top and the other all the way down. You'd have 4 buttons in total:

1) all the way up
2) one place up
3) one place down
4) all the way down

Dragging is way more easyer. What if you have to click 10 players from top to bottom, averaging 42 clicks per player, that is 420 clicks for 10 players. ThatĖ‡s absurd!

What if you could select multiple players and choose to move them one spot or all the way up/down?

In my case, I had 15 players I needed to drag from top to bottom. Because the list is long I had to wait for the browser to scroll. When I got to the bottom I had to make sure to put them in the right place. Finally, after up and down, back and forth 15 times I clicked submit. But it took too long so it timed out and I had to do EVERYTHING over again.

I just think it would've been much faster if I could've selected the ones that I wanted to put at the bottom, send them all down, and make slight adjustments there.

clicking even 1000 times is easier than dragging.
