League is full!

We will use the lottery results from tonight and officially start the draft right after.

Since the draft will be here on the boards (using this same link), would appreciate during the week if you will not be around during the day if you would send a few proxies to me (we generally have computer access all the time). I will also provide an email to email your proxies so I can get them via blackberry.

Remember, once you select a group (example A1) you can not select again from that grouping (is this case the other A groups). Should be very interesting early on.....

If anyone has any other questions let me know!

Happy Drafting!

Ebbets, thanks for coming up with this format. Looks very interesting and should be fun.

A couple of questions...

1) You mentioned we can keep the max of 27. Are the other 14 players that are NOT kept for the active roster who we draft still our property (protected), or are they back in the free agent pool and available for anybody to pick up?

2) When selecting on this board, should we just list the group we're selecting and then once a round you would update the available groups? Otherwise, re-posting that list every time could be a nightmare.

Thanks again!

[ebbets1957]

Yes, the other 14 players are your property and can be moved up and down as you wish. No other teams may pick them up unless you trade them,

Keep in mind that this is the only free agent pool you can pull from. As we have seen in our other league like this, it has made for much more trade discussions.


I will post the draft order later this evening, put the group you are seleting along with the key names of players in the group. I will keep things updated once per round (or close). Probably a good idea to copy and past this list to track yourselves as well....

Should be fun!

Here come the lottery results!

[ROBERTLATORRE]

Ebbets, can I make a request? As the draft progresses, can you mark the initial post of the thread with the selections?

N12 [b:abfc3606d8](EBBETS1957)[/b:abfc3606d8]
Zachry, Pat R 1.46
Wilson, Bill R 1.59
Wilcox, Milt R 1.32
Bird, Doug R 0.75
Lagrow, Lerrin R 0.75

It might be easier to keep track of our picks and everyone else as well that way.

Just asking.

[ebbets1957]

No worries. Will post results Rd by Rd to make sure there is no confusion.

One state left to pick, then we will begin.

All,

As we launch the draft tomorrow, with my job, I am generally always on the computer.

As your pick gets close, and you think you wont be around for a while, feel free to send me proxy picks via PM or to my email.

With me getting the double pick at 12, this should make this easier as you wont have to worry too much about me taking the guys you want... :D

I already have received 1st RD proxy's from Bigdinkent, so once DurantJerry picks, we will be off and running.

Mike
