generate random league by creating/assigning draft logic

[bcarancibia]

I was looking through to try to generate a large (500+) number of random leagues based on a set of rankings. The goal is to look at the output of these random leagues and see what the difference is between computer picking via rankings vs manually selecting teams.

Ability to create random leagues with random teams that I can then simulate their fantasy seasons to understand how many points they might score. Final output is to see if I can quantify importance of drafting instead of just anecdotal articles. Also, it would be interesting to look at draft strategy and see if there are patterns that come up different way to approach draft.

5 things you would need to consider is:

• Position Rules (how many starters, how many bench players)
• Previous Positions drafted (aka have they already drafted their QB, have they drafted all possible starting RBs but no WRs)
• Draft strategy (0RB, 0WR, 1RB). Do different teams use different rankings / adp?
• Draft Randomiser (how spread from ADP do you want it, probably progressive with it being more random as the draft goes on)
• Do you want the user to be able to take part or not?

I was looking to build something like this anyway.

This is what I have planned so far:
