2016 DATES: Free Agency and Draft

Is it possible to make it so we can see the number grade associated with each player either on the FA list (either in place of the letter or along with it?) Or maybe add it to the FA offer page? If I remeber from previous years it isnt there when we are making a bid on a player. Would be nice to be able to compare that specific number to the players already on my roster. I understand that numbers will fluctuate throughout the season but it would be nice to know their current number when making the bids.

Completely understand if it isnt feasible by the time FA starts...maybe for future consideration

After reading all of the posts about FA and the draft, I have to agree with bigphil44 and jerrydlux, as being a newbie in the league, a couple of weeks of preparation for the draft would be beneficial. Having the draft only days apart makes no sense. My main question for my team is do I stay at 11 in the first round or trade down, depends what KC does in free agency.

I agree that we should wait a while after FA starts to draft but is it at all possible to do it more in the 5/13 range? We all have an idea of what we want to do with our teams and I don't speak for all of the new guys but I wouldn't be here if I wasn't prepared to draft right now.

Just wanted to throw that out there

I agree with those who want to push the draft to mid May. I'm looking at my team specifically and I have all but 4 or so of my free agent targets signed. Looking at the league, CFFL, as a whole and I'd say a good chunk of our free agents have been signed, and there are way more players who have no offers on the table than those who have offers. So, the worst thing that could happen with moving the draft closer would be teams just making offers on those players who didn't have any offers on the table. Which is the same exact thing that's gonna happen if they have to wait for the draft. No matter when the draft is, I know my plan already and my areas of need.

As much as I'd love to have it asap, May 27th won by a landslide so I think we should honor the date. It also gives Troy time to set everything up without trying to rush it together.
