Guest Ditkanate Posted June 25, 2001 Originally posted by t.jWell it would be nice to get it finished quickly so that not much changes on the NFL landscape between when we start and when we finish. If someone gets injured or a starting job gets won it's better if we have already picked, rather than only the person who drafts next after the injury occurred getting to take advantage. Does free agency start immediately following the draft? Or do we wait until the season starts? Do we pick people up by posting a message here? Or do we not know because this is the worst league ever?

Guest t.j Posted June 27, 2001 What do you guys think about this? I propose a moratorium on free agent activity, as soon as the draft is done, until say at least August, maybe even mid or late August. It would be sure be nice after we put in effort on a daily basis (some of us any way ...) to keep this non-live draft going at a fast pace, to not have to scour the web for injury reports and starter updates on a daily basis just to avoid getting shafted by changes the teams make in training camp. This would also be fair to those like kariya9 and Tarhole who will be gone for long periods of time. This way we are all on the same level and when we lift the moratorium on free agents in mid August or whatever we are all on the same playing field all at once in terms of knowing which players look to have earned starting jobs and who is hurt, etc...

Guest Ditkanate Posted June 27, 2001 torridjoe you are right! you are making good sense. i would suggest the week prior to the season starting we start up free agency in whatever form it is going to take for the season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
