CAT Draft order voting thread **(Lock please)** 

Post#1 » by Sports Arsenal » Thu Mar 19, 2009 3:42 pm

There has been some concern about the draft order. I proposed a snake draft much like in Yahoo's fantasy leagues.
i.e.

This will be option A.

1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12
12-11-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12
12-11-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12

A suggestion has been made to reverse the order of round 3, round 4, and round 5

This will be option B
i.e.
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12
12-11-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1
12-11-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12
12-11-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1

There has been a suggestion made for A,B,B,B,A
This will be option C
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12
12-11-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1
12-11-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1
12-11-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12

There has been a suggestion made for A,B,A,B,B
This will be option D
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12
12-11-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12
12-11-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1
12-11-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1

Not sure if I'm actually a participant or not at present, but my vote would be B, but I wouldn't be completely upset with C.

There is only 5 rounds...

We could do...

A

Is there a suggestion for that as an option?

I'd be ok with either
A
B
B
A
B

or

A
B
B
A
B

But since there are only a handful of true super stars, I would go with the second choice to help the lower seeded teams a little more..

Yeah, my break down is this:

Superstars
Kobe
Wade
Lebron
Duncan
CP3

Anyone else has weaknesses that will be attacked (and should be)
After that you're getting into Dwight, KG, Roy, Dirk etc...while these guys are all obviously fantastic players, they're not on the previously mentioned players levels THIS YEAR.

Yeah I like option C.

Wade is basically Ben Gordon without the 3-point shooting. Sure, he's been a pretty good defender this year, so that would upgrade, but I'd rather have Gordon because he's cheaper and can hit those threes

From what i gather,
We currently sit at
A-Goose egg
B-5
C-2
D-Goose egg

Voting will continute till 9cst tonight.

The final player will either be Vintage or TBD, Which we will know that answer tonight.

Drafting will start tomorrow at 12pm CST. However, I will post the first round tonight and allow Mascot to take the clock, if he chooses to pick tonight, bryant08 will then be allowed to pick. This will allow Mascot plenty of time (until 6pm CST) to know he is on the clock.
