I would 100% support an Auction draft. Only thing that ruins them is if people dont show up for the draft. Quote Link to comment

I definitely agree that we'd need to try to find a time that works for everyone. But I think you can still auto-pick in an Auction draft, can't you? Quote Link to comment

It kind of screws up the chances of other teams getting legitimate bargains because it seems like the autodraft drives the price up pretty high on most players. Quote Link to comment

Basically people get smart and someone ends up with 3 pretty good WR's but crush all their money. One year we had the auto thing draft the guy 4 WR and 3 TE's in his first 7 picks. Served the guy right. Quote Link to comment
wiuhusker Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 I could pitch in $10 for the league this year. Not against an auction draft but have never done one. Just as long as I end up with Mahomes we can do whatever. Quote Link to comment

If you have the 14th pick in a snake draft, you've arbitrarily been eliminated from any chance at a bunch of the top players. In an auction draft, everyone has a chance at every player.

wiuhusker Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 8:30 central on any week night would be fine. Try to avoid the 26th if possible as that's when my other leagues draft is. Quote Link to comment
