I will be glad to moderate ONE draft if you like, even if you have the stats done on Yahoo. I run over 40 football drafts every season, so you would need to lock in a time before July 20, when I schedule all my other drafts, if you want your pick of times. I allow 20 seconds per pick. But most guys do not take their 20 seconds, and I can go as fast as people can make their picks. The guys LOVE these drafts, but you absolutely have to be prepared, or you will get lost. We have had our 16-team leagues with a 25-man roster (400 picks) go in as little as 90 minutes. I do these drafts for all my leagues for individuals. Also, a few private leagues like this have me do them for a $100 fee. I will not charge you for this if you want it.
The downsides are:
1. Everyone has to call in to a conferencing system I use. You pay the long distance, but if you get one of those Sams or Price Club calling cards for 3 cents a minute, a 60-minute draft costs $1.80 phone time.
2. You will have to keep track of "picked" players yourself, unless you want to use my automated software. That is available free, but you would still make picks on the phone, and have to be able to connect to the internet in addition to the voice call. You would rate your players ahead of time, and the software shows your top 10 available players at all times, and top 3 available at each position. It updates automatically and immediately when players are taken. This is not a true "web site" - you would have to install the free software that would connect to our server. Basically, there is a small learning curve with this...
The upsides:
1. It is fast and exciting
2. You hear everyones voice and picks - there is time for a little discussion/trash talk at the start, during the 2-minute break in the middle of the draft, and after the end of the draft as long as you want to stay on the phone. It is a cool way to get acquainted.
