I'd be cool with our draft lagging a day, or three behind the real draft (instead of weeks, or a month), but not interested in drafting before the real draft.

Yeah, with how our sim draft operates we rely upon it being after the NFL draft so that we'll have an NFL draft order of player selections to default to if someone misses a pick they get the highest available NFL guy. So unless we changed how it works, it'll always be after the NFL draft.

Troy, were league minimums updated to $750k or are they still $705k?

The draft day for 5/7 is listed as a Saturday but it's actually on a Sunday.

Free Agency: Sunday AM 4/23

So let's plan on that.
