Starting last year in concurrence with the Keeper League the draft order is the same way the NFL (A Keeper League in itself) conducts its draft. Based on last years final standings: Worst team 1st - Best team 10th, then it follows the snake pattern into the second round: Best team 1st - Worst team 10th. I believe this draft order would be in the best interest of the league because it will keep the league even on a competitive basis & not allow the best teams to Keep their best players & add another TOP 10% of the league player. Some of you have voiced the concern that we should reward the champion & the top teams with the draft order going in the exact opposite from the NFL draft order. So the first round would be Best team 1st - Worst team 10th, then snakes around starting in round two. I feel as the winners get more than enough reward with the cash payout, championship trophy, & bragging rights. But some of you don't. So with out further ado, below are the options for Draft Order:
DRAFT ORDER
1) NFL Draft Order (Current System)
2) Reverse NFL Draft Order
3) Complete Random Order Every Year
Rod and Roland would like to see a random order. each year. This would eliminate the end of season slumping factor and the attitude if I lose this game I'll get a higher pick. Every team should remain competitive to the end. Those who throw in the towel early should not be rewarded!
ReplyDelete1- who threw in the towel early????.....TOM
ReplyDeleteand if we do NFL we should do reverse standings at the end of the season according to points....this way RnR get the 7th pick even though if we used playoffs they would have the 10th pick...agreeing that they should not be penalized for winning the whole thing in the playoffs, but also acknowledging they did not put together a team that got the most points...TOM TBC
ReplyDeleteso the vote should be
ReplyDelete1A reverse order according to points (Vinnie, Tom, Henry, Bob, Jeanette, Carlos, RnR, nAlex, Mike, Danny) OR
1B reverse order due to playoffs (Jeanette, Henry, Carlos, Tom, Vinnie, Bob, Alex, Danny, Mike, RnR)
1A

1-The current system is how every league I've ever played has done it.
ReplyDeleteIn a keeper league it has to be NFL draft order or the playing field will never even it self out! So I vote to keep it the same even though I have a shitty draft pick this year....
