Preparation For the Draft

Posts : 270 Join date : 2008-04-27 Age : 35

In order to be fully prepared for the Rookie Draft, each team will need to make sure they have the picks they say they have, as well as notify the Admins of any trades of picks in the "Draft Order" thread to avoid any confusion or arguments on Draft Day.

We are working on getting a pool for the draft. We have the offense done and need to get the defense now.

Is there a date set for the start of the Draft?

not yet. I am thinking next week, or late this week.

We still need to get the defensive players set up for the draft

I suggest we vote on the time.

I am swamped with tests before the 16th of june. I could possibly do it the weekend prior (14-15th), but starting around 2pm on monday the 16th would be much better for me.

It would likely be ideal to have it on a weekend, but we need more members weighing in on what times they can handle.

Just in case, it is a good thing to have a Big Board sent in to an Admin.

The e-mail just said that we were full and going to be getting the draft going soon.

Nothing special

Fine by me. I'll have to work, but I make my own schedule at that job, and I can always make a Big Board.

But we probably need to give more warning for those who don't come check this forum everyday. So like next weekend maybe.

We could try to make it an actual draft weekend thing. Rounds 1-3 or 1-4 on Saturday, and the rest on Sunday. the 28-29?

I still suggest everyone start putting together a Big Board, that way it helps everyone get what they want even if they are not able to be at the draft itself.

i would love it on a sunday if we could haha. i really want to be here. but early sat. would be okay. i know we can do it around my schedule. but it would be really cool.

Worse comes to worse, *and I know certain people will be inactive during the draft* we just give BPA in area of need.

Weekends are not good for me. I always have at least one baseball game and after this weekend 3 of the next 4 I have baseball or softball tournaments, and the next I have a friend's 21st bday.

This said, I will have BB's ready whenever needed, but I will not be able to help a lot during the draft. So hopefully Pats, Spygate and AllMadden can handle it, which I think they can

Fair enough.

Just send out 1 more mass e-mail, with the date and time after we get another member or two, and send me the big-board and we'll get it started.

So far we have the date: Sunday, June 29/08

And now we need a set time. I'm thinking 7-ish?

I should be able to make just about any time that day work around my schedule, as it looks right now. Let's get this thing rolling. We've only got about a month + a week or two until Madden 09 comes out. cheers

How long would we have per pick? I have to wake up around 30th, so as long as the draft wouldn't go until like 2 am that night I am fine with next sunday.

Worst case scenario, we'll give whomever is not online, BPA and base ti on need vs. who ever is available.

I doubt we'll do the entire draft in one night. My guess would eb that we would be done by either Monday or Tuesday for the later rounds.
