I'm voting for option two but which ever way we go will be fine with me I like both ideas.

[Romultiltus]

I prefer option 1. The draft can be completed quicker this way. Also, after the draft is completed, the extra guys on a roster will allow for more flexibiliy for trades. I for one, would like the option to trade a guy for a guy in another division in order to better my team. So far the only trading has been for fighters in the same division and/or draft pick.

Once all 3 draft rounds have been completed, there should be a deadline to get down to a team of 16. After the teams are pared down, then the free agents can be sifted through. There might be a guy available who is actually better than your 3rd round pick. I forsee a bunch of 3rd rounders dumped without having fought at all.

[Romdawg88]

So the count as of now is

Option 1: 3

Option 2: 3

[Claybor]

One

For the sake of simplicity.

[bigMatt]

I don't suppose all transactions taking place once at the end of each round would be considered a worthy compromise?

Bah, I was expecting Edwin to make the freaking finals in the Lightweight Tournment. I had a ton of guys qualify for the individual tournments but they've all sucked it up during them as only three have won a freaking match. Oh well, at least Andrew Lewis had a good run.

[Romultiltus]

So far, my team sucks in the tournaments. I had hoped that Terry McGovern would go farther in the FW Tournament after getting the #1 seed. Unfortunately the draw put him up against the only one to beat him during the season - Young Griffo - and once again he lost. Oh well...

On a positive note, I did not expect Oba Carr to make it through to the WW Tournament Finals. It should be a good final against Johnny Saxton. Oba beat him (S12) back in Round 5. (This was one of the only bright spots in the beating Tomato City took at the hands of IceTeaBoxing)

I like option 1 for the draft.

[mh2365]

Man my two best fighters Arguello and Starling both go out in the first round of the tourneys .. that hurts. McGuigan didn't have a good showing either.

I've got one guy in a title fight, but it sure wasn't anyone I thought it would be.

Some things will need to change next year for sure! If not I maybe pulling a Chris Conn and selling off my team LOL

[bigMatt]

Basilio has fought really, really well for me this season. Too bad he had to match up against teammate Mickey Walker in the semi's.

Now we just need one more win from the Bulldog to capture a trophy.
