[USML Announce] Draft day - the unsigned?

[Doug Shabelman]

If I’m staying in, I vote to move the draft.

There are way too many potential game-changing free agent players (and trade pieces) for a supplemental draft for at a later time.

I genuinely understand the sentiment, but still prefer drafting at our regular time.  I don't want to risk missing the season by having it start and then not being able to get everyone's schedule aligned.  So, I'd go with the plan that Mark B. outlined earlier, with an online supplemental draft for the free agents.

I know a statement has already been made about not changing date but I will throw it out there anyway. I think we should delay selecting a draft date until lockout is ended. The number of unsigned players is too large and it doesn’t only affect those players. It could dramatically influence value of other players who might get bumped as a result of a signing.

Hi everyone,

With the draft three weeks away, I wanted to check in to see about the potential provisions for the mass of unsigned players (Freeman, Bryant, etc.).

Any fresh thoughts on how we should/will handle that?

Thanks,

Frank
