So that tinsdale doesn't lose his normal pick time (he emailed me his pick), he's grabbing Austin Cooper. Poach is still active and ninek has exclusive rights until 11:28 am est

The Free Agent draft starts next week (July 27 @ noon est), it’s a slow draft (12 hours max per pick with the same poaching rules as the rookie draft) that will be conducted on the MFL site. Make sure you set your notifications accordingly, you can get text messages or emails when your turn comes up. I’ll send a similar message on the thread so that if you didn’t get this email, you do see it there.

Awesome, thanks.

Quick question - the site is not letting me pre-draft any "locked" players. I assume that drafting locked players becomes possible at the start of the draft?

Also, just an FYI, the draft clock is set to 10 hours on the site rather than 12.

I'll unlock everyone tonight so you can do that. And I'll amend the draft clock.

Everything should be good to go now. I'll remove picks so that no team goes over the 32 man roster on the evening of the 26th - so if you drop players 2 hours before the draft you don't get extra picks because of that.

Teams that will currently not get the maximum 12 rounds of draft picks (picks will be dropped from the end, not the beginning):

River City Cryptkeepers - Veritek83 - 11 picks
Big Picture - NineK11 - 8 picks
The Soulful Power Ballads - Forever Peace - 9 picks

If you want your full complement of 12, drop players until your roster hits 20 players.

I've made sure that everyone in the league will get an email when their draft pick is up. If you want to get text messages instead, check your team's settings in the "Wireless" section:

The Irish can't drink. What you always have to remember with the Irish is they get mean. Virtually every Irish I've known gets mean when he drinks.

If we want to drop to get to 12 picks, when's the deadline? Night of the 26th?

yup - just bear in mind that, in all likelihood, that is a pick you're likely to cut when rosters drop to 24 players.

Draft is live, I still have to edit the end of the draft to adjust for roster sizes. Had to deal with move-related meltdowns last night so I couldn't take care of it then.

Draft is over! Remember that rosters contract to 24 in a little over a week - so cut wisely after the first couple of preseason weeks.

Can we wait until after week 4 before requiring cuts? It seems pretty silly to draft players only to get a single game to evaluate them, especially given how this is our only chance to lock players into a contract.
