If you run or participate in a few leagues and there's some overlap in draft times, you can open the drafts in separate browser windows (like Firefox and Chrome). Each browser operates independently from each other.

If something unexpected comes up and your league needs to take a quick break, you can pause the draft up to 20 times for up to 60 minutes. While paused, you can also undo draft picks.

Pause a draft

1. From the lower-left, click the Draft Settings icon
2. Click Pause Draft.
3. Select a pause length.

Undo a draft pick

While paused, you can check Select All to undo every pick or check the box next to specific players to undo individual picks.

While using the desktop draft client, the commissioner can follow the following steps:

1. Click the Draft Settings icon.
2. Click Draft Pick Time Limit.
3. Select the amount of time between picks.
4. Click "Set Draft Pick Time Limit."

The draft will pause for 15 seconds before resuming with the updated draft pick time limit.

If a manager didn't join the league pre-draft, you need to edit roster positions, your draft switched to autopick, or you need to adjust any "Pre-Draft Only" settings, here is how you can reset the draft.

When conducting a draft party with family and friends you can present the draft to everyone without displaying your personal draft room.

1. From the lower-left, click the Draft Settings icon.
2. Click Present Draft.
3. Open an additional browser window or device to draft for your team.
