After the long, excruciating wait through Round 5, I just want one of my two targets to be left for me at 6.4.

Ok people, start making picks, this is ridiculous! A whole bunch of inactive draftees right now! Maybe we should consider cutting the draft time down even more on rounds 3-10! This is by far the slowest draft we've had in 3 year's

I just want to confirm.
Since the draft order for Round 6 shows SF OTC until 11:30 PT, does that mean I can make my pick at that time?
Or do I need to wait for a commish to declare the skip?

Super happy Alvarez was still available. Kid's got a cool story and off to a promising start, even. Hopefully the pro instruction will help him iron out the kinks.

The Twins usually had pick 1 in each round and they made the thread usually. I emailed MIN after picking at 6.4 because the list had them at 6.5...sorry man.

It's a good thing Paul made that trade, cuz that was my guy. Gary Gill-Hill RHP TB I will email next If it makes you feel any better, you just grabbed the guy I had right after Brannon.

Gill Hill is a contender for the best name in the draft!

I thought he'd fly under the radar more - I had him pegged after the 6th. On another note, his name is definitely a tongue twister - say "Gary Gill Hill" fast 10 times.

This is why I traded for so many 6 and 7th round picks. This is where these guys go

I just realized that TOR has missed picks in rounds 3, 4 and 5 and CIN missed a pick in round 5. I will be posting picks for them based on the highest drafted guys I see left on the board.

Has Sprinkle been picked? I have not seen him yet, but I'm blind sometimes too

Is it time to speed up the clock, and maybe not require commissioner intervention to skip to the next pick? At 6+ hours per pick the way its going, the last 3 rounds could last until October.

Yeah, I think so. I meant to do that the last two rounds, but I was away all weekend with poor connectivity. I don’t want to switch in the middle of around though. Rounds 9 and 10 will be a 3 hour clock.

Rounds 9 and 10 will be a 3 hour clock. May I also suggest that a team with outstanding expired picks be skipped automatically and immediately when their next pick comes up. Maybe not in earlier rounds, but starting round 6 in future drafts.

I’m not necessarily against it, but we have to find some way to get these teams better picks before the disparity in this league hurts future owners. I’m kind of thinking if you’ve missed multiple picks you just get an auto pick immediately until you start showing up.

There needs to be a better system for league balance. I'd argue for top 5 picks at least an auto selection after 6 hours; however, I understand people want to make their own picks even if the talent drops significantly.

Also Jon,
Did you get the go ahead from Curtis to skip a team without a commish officially skipping? We had that big problem earlier from this.
