Hello everyone, with draft day here, I just wanted to cover a few housekeeping items and update you on the process that will follow the draft.
- Trades will be shutoff at 4:00pm EST. This allows enough time for the trade committee to vote on trades and me to process them before the draft begins at 5:00 pm.
- The draft will be a slow draft with a 8 hour clock per pick. The clock will automatically stop at 10:00pm and restart at 9:00am. If you go into your notifications settings in fantrax you can be alerted when you are on deck, and then on the clock. After you make a pick, feel free to tag whoever is on the clock in discord.
- I suggest that if you think you may not be able to make your pick during the 8 hour window, you set a queue and turn autopick on, this will help us not sit for the full 8 hours waiting for your pick.
- If we do not complete the draft prior to the NFL draft at the end of the month, any player who is eligible for the NFL draft this season CAN NOT BE DRAFTED. You must wait until our rookie draft.
- Once the draft is completed, trades will remain shut off until everything is up to date.
- Upon the completion of the inaugural draft you will be required to assign contract lengths for each player drafted. Please see the detailed breakdown in the rules.
- Once everyone's contracts are posted I will update the mastersheet and update Fantrax. Once those are complete, the league is fully open. Free agency will begin, and trades will reopen. At that point, you can trade players, 2020 and 2021 draft picks.
I believe that covers it all. If you have any questions please let me know.
Panthers GM (Connor) you are officially on the clock!
