Who wants 4.3? @Chef99 @Bandit

Well @Bandit has been trying since the 3rd rd. ....

 

[Barilko]

Well I'm fine with 4 rounds I think trades will be tougher inside the draft with only 3 rounds...though the trades may carry more weight..... I think without 4ths the 3rd round movement would be somewhat hampered and hog tied ...For me I don't care if the 4th round takes weeks .. no rush football doesn't start 4 months....

As the three 3 rounds vs 4..I dunno, no skin of my back either way. Many dynasty leagues are only 3 round rookie drafts. But I do know some people certainly use them, depending upon the year and each teams roster makeup, just never know.
Either way is fine by me

Kind of the same way I feel about it. .... though it does get annoying sitting there for hours only for the guy OTC to pass - especially if you happen to have a target/desire for the pick. Heck this yr we even had a 2nd RD pick passed out of the blue. ... .

 

[Trudem]

I have baseball all day today again. Someone shoot me a text when I’m up if possible

You guys better take care of the ladies first. .... just saying; happy wife, happy life. ..

 

[obxyankeefan]

I was asleep when he sent the trade, but accepted a few hours ago.

Agreed that was rather frustrating

Maybe cutting the clock with each round. D2 is still 5 rounds and this year we had cut the 2nd through 5th rounds down to 18 hours. We finished in under two weeks for the first time and I think the longest wait we had was 15 hours.

That not surprising - he does his best work after I go to bed as well......

Not a bad idea. .... kind of like the NFL does already. ... but I'd suggest it be 12-15hrs. ... still PLEANTY of time to shit or get off the pot. ..

 

[Barilko]

If the guys (especially as their pick approaches) would tell us hey I'm out until such and such time then no one is waiting while they wait.

 

[Chef99]

I try to be as active as I can in these things, and I can probably deal with an 18 hour time frame, but with my schedule, 12 hours doesn't work for me.

After several yrs of this league if they were going to do that, don't ya think they already would ? I mean its basically the same people.

I would agree, I'm retired but I certainly can understand. Especially since the clock starts immediately after the pick before. ....

Well, one could also make the argument that I don't have any picks next year, but we know that won't last.
