Maybe instead of designating a specific date and time for the draft, we can run a rolling draft. Specify a deadline for registering, and then the draft starts immediately thereafter. Each participant gets a specific amount of time to make their next selection (say, one hour from the time stamp of the previous pick), at which point they forfeit their pick and the draft continues. Yes, this means the draft would take a few days, but so be it. Perhaps we could specify that each round last no more than 24 or 48 hours, meaning that a three-round draft would take no more than a week. Doing it this way would also give participants incentive to trade up or back into time slots more favorable for them.

sorry, nonstop, one hour per pick from the previous time stamp is way too tough. most guys are not able to be online all day long.

we're doing this kind of mock draft now the 8th time this year at our message board and a time window of 4 hours per pick has successfully established itself as the best version. we have 5 picks a day:

pick 1: 8 am - 12 pm
pick 2: 12 pm - 4 pm
pick 3: 4 pm - 8 pm
pick 4: 8 pm - 12 am
pick 5: 12 am - 8 am

the time window of pick 5 is longer as people usually sleep at night šŸ˜‰ you can pick right after you're on the clock even if your time window is not on the line at this point.

Heh, my original proposal was three hours, but then I hit the edit button and changed it to one hour. šŸ˜‰

It will be extremely difficult for me to pick during the day during the week. Busy at work / in the lab at random times all throughout the day. However, most evenings are fine.

1. Rams
2. Tampa Bay
3. Kansas City

I'll be fine with whatever draft timetable we decide to go with.

beast (5h) : You have a point, it's a very wise move, therefore, that can't be what the Jets are doing.
Zero2Cool (8h) : It'd be a wise move.
beast (19h) : I think Jets are just killing time, and picking up information as they wait for their guy to get done with the playoffs.
Zero2Cool (16-Jan) : Brewers icon & Baseball Hall of Famer Bob Uecker passed away today at the age of 90

beast (15-Jan) : A more aggressive QB, potentially could of hit the WRs more often, taking some risks, but also potential get an INT.
beast (15-Jan) : So Hurts didn't take many, if any risks, and wasn't throwing into Cover 2, which I think helped the Packers. Where a more aggressive QB o
beast (15-Jan) : Cover 2, keep a CB and Safety over top of both WRs... and Hurts (like Rodgers) is overly careful and doesn't like any risk in his throws.
joepacker (15-Jan) : new to this maybe question n wrong place?
joepacker (15-Jan) : how did the packers mostly shut down the eagles passin attack and specifically how did they manage such a good job on aj brown?
Zero2Cool (15-Jan) : Per his dad

beast (15-Jan) : More likely to listen if the guy controlling the ball is the one telling them
beast (15-Jan) : Apparently because players aren't doing the small things when the coaches tell them, and LaFleur believes they're more likely
Zero2Cool (15-Jan) : Jordan isn't a vocal guy. Why not let him lead his way?
Zero2Cool (15-Jan) : I'm not sure it ever bodes well when you have to tell your team leader to be more vocal.

Martha Careful (14-Jan) : Yes, Saquon Barkley had a very nice game. But he has a much better offensive line in front of him. I'll take Josh Jacob's. I love the guy
