For auction leagues, there a new column labeled "Draft $".  If you enter a custom auction price for a player, that will be shown in the column. Also, if you draft using Yahoo!, this will automatically be filled with the actual auction price.  Unfortunately, for other providers, we cannot import their prices so you'll need to enter them manually from the Custom Dollar Value page during your draft (I would open a second tab/window to do this.)

For players that do not have an auction price yet, this column is filled with a dynamic $ amount based on the total money spent.  At the start of your draft, you'll notice all players have a matching $ value and Draft $ amount.  However, once money is spent, the Draft $ column will adjust to the remaining money.  For example, if someone pays $100 for Trout, that will decrease the total money pool and cause all hitters Draft $ down.

I have some keepers at set dollar values and I'd like to see the effect of everyone's keepers on the remaining values of the available players.  I've looked for "custom auction price" and "Custom Dollar Value" and I can't see where to enter in the values.  I'm I correct in assuming this is what the new feature does?  

Thanks.

I entered custom dollar values for four of my players.Is there a display column for custom dollar values in team analysis or projections tab? Also, is there any confirmation that the difference between projected $value and custom $ value was absorbed into the rest of the player pool?  Thanks in advance.

If you go the the Draft Tracker, you'll see a Draft$ column.  The bolded values are your custom, and the non-bold are the recalculated $ due to custom $.  I should also add a list to the Edit Custom Dollars page of current entries.
