if the max number of FA's is 8.. and we are only having a one round draft..then that little discussion on whether the league should be set up a frenzy or waivers is a little more important than I thought..

I would think that setting it up as a waiver league is better and would make sure the remaining FA's are spread around the league than taking the risk of one or maybe two teams being able to pick up 4-8 really good players from the FA pile through a quick frenzy .. .. ???

Good point, I was only thinking that there was no real fair way to setup the waiver order, but at least it prevents one early bird team getting all the best FAs. How exactly would the waiver order work? If we all put 25 players from out franchises, would the team that drafts the most expensive players get the last pick? I guess that would be weighted waivers?

[ROBERTMAVIN]

weighted averages might make a difference.. but not a whole lot.. but still fairer than an open frenzy given the format

but the good neews it that the draft has started !
:D :D

[geekor]

ummm... 23
