I really don't understand why we are posting picks early, it has not done anything other than cause confusion. Just send a proxy
I think the benefit is that it can help prevent one person from holding up the entire draft for 5-6 hours (or longer). At least it gets some picks out of the way so that this scenario is less likely to happen as we move along in the draft. Anyway, it's just an option. Nobody has to post their picks early if they don't want to. If it is causing confusion, then I agree, sending a proxy is the better play.

When we have CDL #5, I think I will make a change in the drafting schedule. Round 1 will be untimed. For rounds 2 through 4, there will be some type of time limit. 12 hours? 16 hours? We will figure something out, a 24 hour clock is too much. For rounds 5 through 8 I want to make a schedule. It will be something like this…..person #1 drafts at noon, #2 at 12:20, #3 at 12:40 and so on until person #24 drafts at 7:40pm. 24 picks in 8 hours. You know exactly when your twenty minute window is. If your time slot happens to be at 5:40 and you know you will be in your car then you can send several people a proxy. Or if you want to you can give a buddy your cell phone number and they can call or text you (not while driving!) and get your pick and post it. Going between noon and 8:00pm should be a time window that is not too early or too late for the east coast or the west coast. We can work something out for all of our drafters from Switzerland.

Please let me know if you like this idea.

I am also considering using the 8 hour plan for rounds 7 and 8 of this draft.

If you have any comments about this idea please post them in the CDL commentary so we do not clutter up the draft pages. Thank you.
