We will need 16 owners!! I will just be moderating.

Idea:

What do you guys think about a 5 or 10 round initial draft? Everyone would have to drop their draft choices from these rounds and we would hold a live draft for these players. Thoughts?

You would probably need to have everyone drop players than that for it to work. I have found many times that there are still really good players that get drafted in late rounds.

Good point Brad. However, I think that would get too confusing or time consuming to go through the entire draft or to go through and deem that certain players need to be in the draft. Also, people might complain about having to waive someone and why another owner didn't have to waive player x.

Just doing the first 5 or 10 rounds is simple and should add some parity to the league.

Seeing as how you seem to be starting the recruiting process over again, I would like to request the Washington franchise.

Thanks,:spin:

I've got too many teams right now and don't need autographed balls, but I just want to point out that giving any point for finishing 7th or 8th is ridiculous. Strive to at least come in 6th or take your 0 like a man.
