Title: Draft Discussion
Post by: mstreeter06 on April 13, 2016, 04:52:28 pm: I'll have the draft pool exported from the game and imported into Statslab this evening.

Maryland has the #1 overall pick and can pick right away here or wait for Statslab to be ready.

The draft timer will start tomorrow (Thursday) morning at 6am CT and be a running 24-hour timer that resets after each pick for the 1st round.

I think that's expected now for incoming draftees especially HS level players where their defense would improve as they move through the minors? I don't know this specifically just my guess.

Post by: tjsmith7 GA on April 20, 2016, 09:51:18 pm: BEWARE! Don't draft P Clarence Towns 6/7/6. Top prospect, but his status shows - Career is OVER - due to injury.
Can we remove him from the pick list?

I'm still trying to determine if I can easily do this without messing up our current draft results :D..

Post by: mstreeter06 on April 25, 2016, 09:48:07 am: We will be finishing the draft by Wednesday morning either completing normally or autoing the remaining picks...

Post by: mstreeter06 on April 27, 2016, 12:17:39 am: Statslab hasn't been handling the first 'Auto' pick the past few rounds so I just went through the remaining of the draft and helped the CPU finish the draft since I wouldn't have time to do that in the morning.

We need to get this wrapped up so we can prepare for the OOTP17 upgrade.

Let me know if you want to swap out an undrafted player with a CPU auto/list/myself pick before I finalize the draft results in the morning. Remember that undrafted players could return to school as a warning before you claim any undrafted guys.
