    ....you damn West Coast people.  6:30 your time is too early?

    It's funny, I had it set for Sunday at first....but then figured we'd be cutting it close AND having Sunday and Monday as the two days instead of Friday / Saturday would work better.

    Well here's the thing too....it's 7 rounds now instead of our usual 4, so starting at 9:30 for the eastern time zone guys means they're gonna up very very late.

    I won't be at the draft.  I'll trade my picks.  I can not be up till 3am drafting.

    maybe we should split up the draft into rounds 1-3 on 1 night and then do rounds 4-7 on next night. both starting at 930pm et...this will give everyone a chance to get their 7 picks (which may be more valuable now thanks to random players) and it'll also help for preseason advance and fa frenzy. everyone gets the same fair shot to make roster cuts, sign scrub fa's no one wanted to bid on or couldnt afford at bidding asking price, etc.

    let this be a test draft schedule for the remainder of our mefl drafts...if this works, then we have our template or if not we can figure out what needs to be changed to make it better for the league

    I'm so behind on draft info myself.

    So it's definitely true that there's no cheatsheets because of the complete randomness of the drafts?

    .....and I'm ok with splitting it up if the league is cool with it.  7 Rounds will be long.

    UPDATED

    This is the final schedule.  Sorry if pushing back the draft days screws you guys up...but it's tough to get everybody on on two different nights.

    Cabbage brings up a good point:  we should have more time to scout because there are no cheat sheets this year.

    So, we're gonna go with the 4-Day offseason schedule.

    um....we've had ALL SEASON to scout players. also, the 1 hour between stage 2 fa bidding and rookie draft has scouting options available which is also plenty of time to scout players if you havent done so already.

    dont get me wrong, i'm all for making sure we have enough time to do this, but imo waiting 24 hrs to start draft just to scout is a wasted day.

    We also have a long time of madden to go. Nothing needs to be rushed. Lets make it easy and fun. Everyone is always in such a rush lol

    Well, we did it both ways last year.  Once where we allowed the full day for scouting and I remember guys asking why the hell why we weren't drafting that night.  Its a lot of dead time in between days 2 and 3 now.

    I feel like BC we had all season, and BC of the lack of scouting points that they give us, that those 2 hours are more than enough....but hey there's nothing wrong with going the extended route either.

    We'll see how everybody likes it.

    ....the real positive about it is that it allows more time for draft day deals.
