I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure that both picks so far in the draft are not matching my draft order. For the second round I picked 3rd and had DL Yong Lor in top priority but ended up with a CB (which also happened in the first round). Unless of course I'm going completely tonto, which is possible.

First question: Did you check to see if your draft order was saved?
Second question: Did you set in the right of the player "round 1 or round 2"?
If your player from yesterday, had in the right, round 1, the system will not pick that player

From the manual
Example:
You have player A B C D E F on the board

You want 1 out of A B, in round 1, one out of C D in round 2

Sort the players as shown here:

E any round
F any round
C round 2
D round 2
A round 1
B round 1

The engine goes and checks for "1st round", if this doesn't work it checks overall, from top to bottom. So it would try to pick

A, B, E, F, C, D, A, B

The engine goes and checks for the 2nd round, it would check

C, D, E, F, C, D, A, B

The 3rd round pick is

E, F, C, D, A, B

I just did what I always do and place them 1 to 96 any round and save. It's always worked before but not this time. I checked last night that I'd saved but it didn't work out the way I expected.
Having said that I am quite dense so maybe it's something I've done that's not right.

Hmmm.
By doing that, you should have that player and the system should pick the players in your order from top to bottom with any round in the right.
Perhaps it didn't saved your settings or "this is stupid to ask", did another team take that player before your pick? or that player has been taken later or is still on the board?

The player he's referring to was taken two picks after his by another team.

Sorry, I have been a bit vague. My top 6 draft order was saved as ...

1 - DL Aguilar 101101471 Went #4
2 - DL Lor 101101436 Went #37
3 - DL Ranatunga 101101426 Went #13
4 - LB Filiposyan Went #2
5 - SF Plaphol 101101467 Went #15
6 - CB Vassos 101101476 Went #3 (to me)

If it helps the top 3 left in my draft order are ...

SF Ruiz
WR Vaclavek
WR Miranda

Not sure if I've done something wrong but or not but it did not go the way I thought it would.

So long as I don't get any kickers, punters or KRs I'm happy!

Hope this helps.

Hm ... I am deleting the draftorder during execution. This leads me to:

A.) I cannot check what happened, I am sorry. Still I believe there is no major flaw in the draft board or draft code, since it workes that way for many years now, without any report.

B.) I will add some debug code to the draft execution, so it keeps some memory about what it is doing, and why. If something like this happens again, I might be able to track it down.

Btw: Could it be that you made your changes on Sunday before the rollover? If so, please check the news.
