How about this for an extra idea? Draft Pick Trading. Not Allowed if a person winds up with more than one Team, but otherwise, if someone absolutely needs to have Aaron Rodgers but is slated to draft 15th, they can work a deal to trade up to #2 while someone else adds 3 exclusive "lower Players" And the person who traded up has to rely on the leftover pool to fill more spots.

I really need every team to have their 15 drafted players and 6 units to choose from, for the final All-Star Clash League . Trading picks could be possible if this first edition proves to be a success.

That appears to allow trades of equal numbers.. like a round 1 and round 9 for picks in rounds 2 and 4.

That is the style of trading the Patriots used for many years. They would trade their #1 pick and a lower round pick for (2) 2nd rounders. Once we get all of our GM's in place, we may have a vote on it.

I'll give this a shot. How will the draft order be determined for it?

Great Question,
When we are ready, I will assign a random letter of the alphabet to the numbers 1-24 - note: Y&Z will not be used. I will then ask everyone to pick a letter or 2... as Commish I will take the letter or letters remaining.
Example;

1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	10	11	12	13	14	15	16	17	18	19	20	21	22	23	24
H	E	L	P	M	R	D	C	I	G	O	T	J	U	N	K	F	A	X	S	Q	V	B	W

I will send this draft info to WIS support and they will post it here. Then I will set the draft board

Thanks. And then I assume it'll snake back around for round 2, so for example the person who gets the #1 pick in round 1 would get the last pick in round 2 and the person who gets the last pick in round 1 would get the first pick in round 2, etc.?

Hooray !!!

Something, tells me Drake Maye would disagree as he looks like a WIS stud

Leave the nest finally and play your NFL football here in 2026

Okay, you convinced me... In for 2!!

I always thought it was 12 owners, two teams each, so I am in for 2 as well.

That has always been the plan danpsull71. Plenty of invites have been extended for this Series. The best value is running 2 teams, we will do whatever it takes to get to 24 teams. We have 18 of 24 currently

The dollars and cents of this: 50-59mil NFL Draft Series
1 team - 3 leagues = $26.97
2 teams 3 leagues with a 6 teams package = $35.95
and remember the final league will be Free

"At the end of this 50-59 mil Series there will be a All-Star Clash League.
Take your 15 drafted players and pump up their salaries and bring your best drafted units along and make one last team at 65 mil. This league will be totally comped as appreciation for taking on such a Big Endeavor "

That's an interesting question. I've probably always started with an idea for budget on a defense in the 50m league, just to know what I had to use. but it wasn't a D to win a championship, lol

You can put me for 2 teams. As for the survey, I'ok at d probably lean o-LINE, BUT like in the NFL , I'll look at what is on off the board, especially if Imdrafting late and theirs been a run on the best of the best
