BZFL - Round 1 4/15 $10 million round - General Draft Questions!

Here is the order and time slots for Round 1. Each pick in this round is worth $10 mil. Remember, you may pass. You do not have to pick in every round. If you miss your time then the next owner will be on the clock. You are still able to pick for that round as long as that round is not over. Once the round is over you lose the pick for that round.

I kinda forgot the possibility of people on the west coast...would you be willing to trade your entire draft for somebody else's entire draft (swich positions in every round?)...either that or you can send me a list everyday (that would get burdensome!!)

at least 60 rounds....you do not have to draft in every round...it all matters how you set your budget...feel free to pick 53 $100K players (that would make the draft about 85 rounds).

true...but here is the thing...you know the All-Pros...you can find out who was healthy all year...the rankings help in the lower rounds...it will also get to the point when you are filling spots 45-53 you will be looking at players of very similar rankings...that might come down to picking the guy with the most upside.

Yeah to be honest I would have rather the rankings not be given out. It would really test the knowledge of the owners.

the rankings are essential to the game...it adds up the value of your offensive line and your defense to determine how good your team is...it would be unfair for me to have them and nobody else.

the player rankings that I sent you are the guide by which you go...players are not assigned to rounds...it is possible that everybody will pass in the first round...if somebody wants to take Drew Bledsoe in the first round they may...if he lasts until the 50th round then somebody grabs him for 100K...

Ah I see so first round is just that there is no player list. That will make for some great draft strategies.

I.e if you take Peyton Manning in the First round its 10 Mil. But if He drops to the 2nd hes only 7.5 Mil.

Also we cant trade til after the draft can we?
