In my draft board I put QB's for round WR for round 2 and all the rest of the players (LB,DT,CB,SF...) in any round option.

In the draft I picked two WR: one in the 2º round (thats correct) and other in the third round, as I said, I arranged all the WR in the second round option.

Unfortunately this is not a bug but more of a pitfall.

If you use this 1st, 2nd, 3rd round thing, the engine will always try to pick a player with the lowest round-setting.

Ex.: You use...
1 x 1st round (QB)
3 x 2nd round (WRs)
10 x 3rd round (what ever)

1st round: Your QB is picked by someone else... the engine checks whether there is a "1st round" left from your list - - > no, hence it takes your first 2nd round guy
2nd round: the engine took one of your 2nd round guys (still no 1st round guy available)
3rd round: the engine checks again starting with your 1st round setting (still no one left), your 2nd round setting (oh, a WR is left... let's pick that one!)... your 3rd round wasn't checked at all.

Please correct me if I'm wrong... but as far as I know that's the way it works. I think Buffalo wrote in an other topic "don't use 1st, 2nd, 3rd round setting" and yes, I guess he is right.

sorry, i have to correct you.

The engine picks that way:
if a player is marked with the current round, it picks the highest sorted of those marked players.
if non is available, it picks the highest sorted player available, even those marked with other rounds.
It does NOT look for ONLY for marked players.

In the third round did the engine pick, since no player with round 3 marked was available, the highest sorted player available.

In your case that was that WR.
