you aren't in this one. You are in the auction league and we don't have draft order. I guess we kinda do for noms but that gets randomized.

technically 3. And sometimes a 4th but we don't have enough to run/to justify an L3 this year.

I would gladly trade with you reck if we allowed that.

Mith, you sure the schedules are set right? I believe I am correctly playing my division mates twice, but I am doing that weeks 2, 8, 9, 12, 13, 14 instead of 1, 2, 3, 12, 13, 14.

I’m pretty sure we do allow set-for-set draft pick trades, no?

IIRC we decided against it a previous year.

I'm more concerned about the schedules since you normally want to play your division rivals during those weeks to cut down on how much byes effect those kind of games

This is how it has always been set up - division games in weeks 2, 12-14, and the other two somewhere in weeks 4-10.

There is no avoiding hitting a bye week currently (4-12), so this schedule results in playing each division opponent once with no byes and once with. (I originally set it up this way in part because I didn’t care for week 1 being divisional - it’s a bit more of a crapshoot - but if the league goes back to 4-11 byes I would be fine with remaking the schedule.)

I don’t remember what our last ruling on draft pick swaps was. If we’re going to allow actually swapping the slots, we need to be doing the draft lottery earlier to allow time for deals and getting them in the system, so that part is not happening this year, with two days left.

I personally don’t have a problem with agreeing to a pick swap via trade after the draft concludes - the issue there is slowing down the draft and enforcement. Only swapping the first two or four rounds might be ok for the first but it does have the issue of one of the players telling the other who to draft and then backing out of the deal based on how the rest of the draft goes. And as with above, if we are allowing it I would prefer to have more time to reach deals.

(FWIW, I would offer to trade with Reck too if we were allowing slot swaps.)

I'm highly against trading individual picks during the draft

When you put it that way, the schedule we currently have sounds fine since it does allow 1 with bye and once without.

I will try to make the best out of picking 12th then this year. Gonna do some mocks and hope for the best

Maybe next year we'll just do the lottery earlier, and rather than determining picks it will determine an order for claiming picks. No need for trading that way.
