Set up your Shuffle Draft by picking a league, the players to include in the draft pool, and which teams each person will control in the draft. In each round, teams are presented with a choice of up to 8 players drawn semi-randomly. Star players tend to appear early in the draft, while role players appear later when rosters start to take shape.
