2014 Draft Date

Post by Goodell »

We do round 1 on the first day and then roughly 2 rounds a day after for the next couple of days.

Last year we started on Sunday after the NFL draft. This year with draft moved, it's Mother's Day, though, and some may have other family plans that day. Seeing where most are on that question. thanks

I've voted for the first option, but would be equally happy with option 2 or starting it on the 17th.

I'm heading up to the camp next week. I should have internet by the weekend, but no guarantees. I will vote for the latest possible option that people are willing to give.

I agree. I'll be around enough on Mother's Day where that wouldn't be an issue, but I'm open to starting at any point on either weekend. Just not open to starting on a weekday at all.

I voted the 17th but would be happy with the Monday.

My college graduation is Saturday morning and then I'm moving back home Sunday.

Looks like there is a pretty overwhelming favorite for start date on Saturday.

I have uploaded all the draft pool player data and updated the draft time windows. The draft tools are now turned on for teams to start working on their draft queue list of ranked players.

If you are not online during your set pick time window, the system will use your player ranking queue to make your pick based upon who you rank highest left available. If you don't have any players in your queue (or the ones you did have previously been picked and none left in your rankings) it will choose a player based upon highest undrafted player from NFL draft order.

If everyone adds at least one player to their draft queue it helps me see who understands the draft is coming and is prepared, that way I can try to contact those who haven't to make sure they know.

Let me know if any questions.

I can add to my queue, but get an error message if I try to click on the arrows next to my picks to move up or down.

Says I don't own a pick that I clearly do.

It looks like it's possible so as long as I can draft through safari on my iPhone I should be good.
