I'm going to go ahead and push hard for this to be implemented. The fact is that the draft crawls here and not enough guys pays attention to it. I say it's perfectly fine for us to start the draft on the boards, but we pick a day BETWEEN FA DAYS to live draft the first two rounds. That way, it's not a big waiting game where things never get done. You send lists or you show up or you get picked for.
Then Mike can auto 3-8 using lists from whomever sends a list.
Simple solution. The current method reveals a lot of guys' lack of interest in the draft, and for those of who are more active, it's terrible. I say we sim FA Mon, Tues, do a live sim 8 PM Wed, and then sim out FA throughout the week. That's an offseason plan that doesn't allow for the draft to carry on into the regular season, and doesn't hinder teams from making trades and developing plans.

What about if we do all the FA and then a Live draft?

I'd say the opposite is more typical if that's the plan, if we want to like the sim schedule to the way BBS functions in the offseason.

Very good Idea....The draft really is slacking over here....I also think we should have a gm check in.
