Please vote on whether we should delay the start of the rookie draft as the league and the US figures out response to C19.

I don't think the draft should be delayed. I don't see how this situation affects the draft and we already push into camp with getting this finished.

If camps are announced to start on time, we'll have a season and this will be moot and we should then start the draft basically as soon as they announced a camp date/season start date. We've also dumped several of the people who took forever to pick. |

I still don't see how anything is affected. The NFL had their draft, we have ours.
Even if they canceled the whole season, nothing is affected vis-a-vis this draft.
We're in quarantine. I'm not sure why we'd deprive ourselves of a distraction.

I don't think this is a majority rules situation. Given the exceptional circumstances that may be taking place in one or more owners' lives right now, I think we should first check to see if any of us would be hard-pressed to participate fully if we start the draft soon.

This is well said. I will ask that anyone who is in a tough spot right now to please reach out to me via email and let me know how I can assist. I will send out a league-wide email today as well. rg |

I'm not sure why we'd deprive ourselves of a distraction. I wouldn't want to start the draft until we have agreed on how we are approaching the contingency 2021 rookie draft in the event there is no 2020 NFL season. Mostly because the draft will involve the trading of future picks and it would be better to have greater certainty around what those assets may be. Other than that, I'm (personally) fine with getting it started as originally planned. |
