It's hard to believe, but we are just over a week away from the start of the NFL season. For some, it marks the start of fantasy football, where armchair quarterbacks flex their statistical muscle via virtual football teams. My draft happens to be on Tuesday where I'll match wits with 11 other football junkies. Most fantasy GM's will scour the Internet looking for an edge and most will enter their draft rooms with the vaulted cheat sheet. Can the iPhone help you win your league? There are two apps which are available in the App Store that aim to help you win your draft.
Draft Central allows to to sort through available players by name or by UltimateFFB's ranking system. You can even set up teams and monitor your competition's draft strategy. All of these are great tools, but one has to wonder if you can manage all of this during draft day on nothing more than the iPhone. Having set up a custom FileMaker database for drafting purposes, I can tell you from experience that it's difficult enough using a desktop application. This might also be the occasion where good ole pen and paper trumps the iPhone
