A question The initial draft was serpentine and of forty rounds in length.The prospect draft is in reverse order,serpentine ,and of four rounds in length.Fair enough,the numerical value of every teams draft picks are 500 and 50 total, for the two drafts, I think

Hopefully the advantage of picking first is evened out by then next picking at number 24.this is all obvious . The order reversal in the prospect draft is fair,maybe more then fair as the prospect draft is top heavy.
That leaves the stadium order .Reversing the initial draft order,one round. At the end of round one ,the first team gets the number one pick( subjective I grant you but still number one),the last team gets the last pick.No way to even out advantage of picking first.
So to cut to the chase I think the stadium draft selection should be randomly generated

It is my understanding that this draft structure is typical of keeper leagues. The advantage of making the first pick in the free agent draft is HUGE. Most would see it as far more important that the TOTAL of the first prospect and first stadium picks combined.

As before, if a super majority of 8 managers wishes to change the rule, that's fine. Otherwise, the draft will continue.
