Saw this idea in another league and figured I would put it out to you guys... we could handle our draft like normal -- all rounds back to back, no time in between rounds -- or we could have it where a new round would begin each week. Either option would have July 1st as our start date, but if we staggered the rounds then Round 2 would begin on July 8th, Round 3 on July 15th, and Round 4 on July 22nd.
Typically, it seems like a normal round in these drafts takes 2-3 days (average draft time of 2 hours would take about 2.5 days). This would be a way of stretching out our draft from just a week or two into a month long event. Ideally it would also encourage more trading, teams would have more time to see who is on the board after a round as well as potentially look at more offers if they have a pick in that round.
It's a long offseason and we've still got 3.5 months left until (hopefully) the season starts. This might be an interesting way to take up more of the time between Free Agency and the start of the season. Please let me know what you think by answering the poll and/or leaving a comment below.
