Hard choice this year. Best candidate wants $8m, Next guy wants nowt but is fragile and the other guy alongside him wants $6m but is "easy" ?

You can probably knock some money off the easy one. That's something that needs to get fixed though. I HATE that we get one offer and that's it. In my experience, that's all you get and assume that's the case for everyone.

Haven't put together my list yet. How quickly do these drafts typically go? I'll try to get it done tomorrow, but likely won't have time until Monday.

The first couple rounds tend to take a couple days, then the clock kicks in and the end happens.

Then we wait for a week until the game progresses far enough that Matt can enter the results. :)

Why is the UMEBA pool draft so much better than the BBA draft pool?

UMEBA 27 players 55 POT or higher(relative to BBA) for 8 teams
BBA 18 players 55 POT or higher(relative to BBA) for 32 teams
Montreal Blazers(BBA) 2044~2047(353-295, .545 W%)
2045 Wildcard(lost in one round)
2046 Atlantic Champs(lost in one round)

Because we moved the IFC to the UMEBA. This will be a short term thing.

Life is a bit more beautiful when time is measured by the half inning rather than the half hour.

Just had exactly the opposite experience. I had a list of three players between 35 and 38 and all three of them went 35-36-37.

Anyone got nothing much to do and feel like doing the links on my first round draft article? It's ready to go minus the links.
