Last year, I did the whole multi-tabbed spreadsheet thing while drafting and doing it all online. I found myself scrambling A LOT and ended up having a pretty horrific draft. I saved my season with awesome waiver pickups, but I'd like to skip that ordeal this year.
Right now, I have the 4for4 positional rankings, the FantasyPros consensus rankings (which are the most popular for other owners in my league), and a personalized version of consensus rankings from FantasyPros using only experts who finished in the top 30 in both draft and in-season accuracy. I'm going to be printing these and using my computer solely for Rotowire/4for4/CBS quick research of players I like during my picks.
My question is do you think these three lists will be enough?
Honestly, the only thing I use during my drafts have been the draft software we get with the site that comes with 4for4 rankings preloaded (and updated). It used to be PC Drafter but of course is Draft Analyzer this year.
I use it to keep track of the whole draft, allowing me to see whatever the other teams have and need as I go. I've never been more successful in my leagues to be honest. I don't want to tell anyone how to draft but it sounds like you have a lot going on with multiple lists and references.
I'm at an advantage that I help to update the news a few days a week and it's amazing the info you can pick up so that's where I probably feel I can lose a few resources and only use the draft software on top of what I remember.
I would definitely recommend trimming it down to as little as possible to keep yourself sane and focused...
