VOTE: How to implement increased Devys in 2022

[Tford]

Again, please vote on all questions even if you vote no to the first one.

 

Last question is clarifying some rules issues before they happen.

It's probably way too late to modify this draft with all the pick trades that have happened, probably just do a subsequent two round draft after it's done.

No reason why you can't just add round 9 and 10. Basically the same thing.

To summarize the results of this poll:

 

There were not enough votes to permanently increase draft rounds so there will only be an increase in 2022 of 2 rounds.

 

Should teams choose not to carry more than 3 devys, no defensive player devy is required.

I don't think you can though, I think the way MFL works is you would have to re-define the draft and re-import traded picks from last year which would then leave the gap I am talking about.  But maybe that's just for changing the order?  I don't recall now so I defer to you if you've looked at it or are sure that works, was mostly just thinking out loud on the topic.

You're not wrong. It may very well require a lot of manual work on my end when we get to the 2022 site. Definitely can't introduce the future picks until after the 2021 draft is complete.

 

I'll mess around with it and try to find the best way to apply the change.

Oh crap I didn't catch that it's only 2022.  It won't be relevant by then, you can just change the draft order when you roll it over to 2022 before you import the trades.  Piece of cake.

Just noticed that if you don't carry an IDP devy then you only get 3 - why would we do that?  I understand requiring the 5th to be IDP should you choose to carry one, but forgoing that shouldn't cost you an additional Devy as well.

I agree. That should have read 4 or less.

Ok so unintended, good.  Would have made no sense that way.
