Lance asked this earlier and nobody responded, so I will re-ask multiple questions concerning the draft format. I know we will all bid on players like last year. Will there be 3 rounds, more or less? Will there be a snake draft FA thing after the last round like a few years ago, or does everyone go to waivers and we go from there? When does the draft start? Are we implementing rules like bids in on Friday, results out on Sunday so that anyone who opposes last minute trades has a day to complain about conspiracies and not getting the players he wants? Will the deadline be in EST? How do you handle rosters above 27 in the draft? Are players who are dropped in the draft eligible to be drafted? How to handle trades within the draft?
My votes are:
* 3 Rounds
* No snake draft. Everyone falls to waivers and you go from there.
* Draft starts the first week of March
* No rules about 1 day to complain about trades.
* Deadline is in EST
* Roster above 27: You must include who you would drop in your bid. If you dont, you have 24 hours from the time results are released to post who you are dropping. If you dont, players are dropped in order of the lowest ranked player per Yahoo's rankings.
* Players dropped in the draft are not eligible to be drafted.
* Trades within the draft: If both players do not confirm a trade by the imposed deadline for a certain round, the trade does not take effect until the next round. ie: if Connor and I do a last minute trade, but I confirm at 12:01 and the round deadline is 12:00, it doesn't count until the next round. Also, in this scenario, Connor should post that this trade is null and void if not accepted by 12:00, if infact that is what he wants (I could easily see this scenario happening). Otherwise, it is a legal trade even though Connor didn't exactly get what he wanted.
If anyone else thinks of anything, ask away. Commissioner Smith, what say you about all of this?

I would argee with Zach on all counts except I think we should not limit the number of rounds - just keep having rounds until everyone is out of money. The roster size limitation at 27 will ensure that there are not that many rounds.
I agree with that. However, if rounds are a week long and we start the first week of March, we wont have more than 4 rounds anyway.
I think we should continue to have three rounds. Part of my strategy has assumed that there would only be three rounds as in years past.
