Only 2 individuals can delay a draft this long and they are the book ends to a serpentine draft. Certain individuals should never be a book end because of their momentum killing histories . We are in Draft 6 at this point and if you have not figured out whom the momentum killers are and are not then we can look forward to future drafts having the same problem.
- I don't think that is true that only 1 & 24 can delay the draft. If bottomlee had made his two picks anyone after him could have created the same result because we would have been off the clock. I am far more frustrated when we wait multiple days for picks off the clock in round one, than I am with losing a few hours on any particular day and going back to being on the clock.
Only 2 individuals can delay a draft this long and they are the book ends to a serpentine draft. 2 thru 23 can be bypassed at somepoint while 1 and 24 cannot in a serpentine draft. The fact is that #23 makes a pick just after 5pm on the clock and #24 (whom cannot be bypassed) does not make a pick until after 7 am the next day (over 14 hours later) . And no doubt round 1 was a joke taking appx. 4 days to complete one round but that's no excuse for someone whom is no rookie at this to not show or send a proxy for over 14 hours.
