Draft a Franchise: Discussion Thread

[gabefergy]

This thread is for the discussion of your team, players, strategy, or any other related questions or comments you may have.

 

Hopefully we will get 1 more participant, and get going ASAP. 

 

I want to start by laying out a bit of Groundwork for the draft. 

 

- 32 team draft snake style

 

- draft order will be randomly generated

 

- no trades

 

- 25 total picks

 

 

 

A few things that I would like to open up to discussion:

 

I would like to implement a 24hr window to make your pick when on the clock. Does everyone agree with this time-frame?

 

Also, I would like to implement a buddy system where you PM the next person on the clock after making a selection.

 

Any other thoughts people have, please share them.

[gabefergy]

I forgot! When does everyone want to start? I would like to start this week if possible, but I think there needs to be some sort of concensus before we begin.

That sucks =/

 

You are our number 32 though!

[gabefergy]

Now that we have 32 I will be making the draft forum with the draft order randomly obtained through a number generator.

IF I do not get the last pick in the whole draft, someone dies

HAHA sorry! Random number generator is, well, random.

 

Look at it this way, you get two top 40 players.

Thanks for setting this up, Gabe and co.

 

I like the 24 hour window and buddy system idea

[BALTIMOREFLACCO]

I have the exact middle pick, not sure whether I like it or not.

 

At least my waits won't be too long 

[gabefergy]

So just floating this out there...how do people feel about starting tomorrow evening (wednesday)?

[Yatagarasu]

I'd rather have more people in the loop instead of starting out of the blue.

[Geving]

I'm good with whenever.

[SecretAgentMan]

I am not going to get a Franchise QB... I am sad

[Yatagarasu]

I'm going to bet that Flacco will be taken in the top 10.

[gabefergy]

Definitely, he should be too.

[Guest nflfan123]

[gabefergy]

RODGERS!

[Geving]

Rodgers or Brees. But it should be Rodgers
