2012 Draft Preferences

[soonertf]

I think a few injuries and spoilers before we get the draft done has about .00001% of an effect on the realism of this league and probably draft strategies as well. Upshaw is still the same player that he was before Suggs got hurt and from my perspective as a GM, the injury would have zero bearing on his talent evaluation.
And also, I don't think we should change anything about the way we have conducted the draft in the past, but do believe it would be more fair to kick it off on a weekend so the max # of GMs can be available. It sucks on draft day waiting to hear back about a trade from someone who isn't even there.

I don't know. Debating on taking Upshaw #2 overall now.

I can't tell if you're kidding.

If I was in his league and had the first pick he wouldn't get a chance at #2

A Saturday 5/12 start, skipping Sunday for Mother's Day, and then picking up Round 2 on Monday and proceeding throughout the week seems like the most supported option. We'll start the draft roughly a week from now. I'll get the pick windows for each selection and when they are due in there today.

[Goodell]

Also, put at least one player in your queue so we know which teams are aware of the draft starting in a week and are preparing for it. We'll use the GM Directory to see which teams haven't used their queue at all and contact them this week to make sure they know the draft is approaching.

If you click to view all picks in the draft tool, it will show the time due dates for every pick (as well as the people being selected once it starts). The first pick in each league will be due 20 minutes after a 10am ET start.
