Remember, there's only 3 preseason games now, so technically we could draft a little earlier if need be or wanted.

I assume this thread is for the Graveyard Hive. On the league page it says Saturday Sept 4th at 4pm EDT.

Yeah, I set the date (Sat Sept 4 @ 4 EST) for a day before my own old 2 leagues. If we go a week earlier, that's during week 3 of pre-season. It was fine when there were 4 games, cuz hardly any starters even played, at least not longer than 1st quarter. But I think week 3 (vs. 4) will count more than ever for team's playing serious and not just evaluating new additions. Do you think there's a reason to draft earlier? craig440 - Some here (looking you Dirtybird and packdog) have not made any trades. If and when they show up and have to wind up dropping their unkeepables, they might not be happy. lol

Just so y’all know,,,
Any day other than Saturday for drafts I might not be able to make because as of right now I’m supposed to go to training academy starting august 30th and the only days I would be home is Saturday and Sunday. But Sunday is out too because I would be traveling back.
It sucks. Hopefully they will change the dates

But Sunday is out too because I would be traveling back. It sucks. Hopefully they will change the dates I already set the GY Hive for Sat 9/4. You're not in my NFL BC, so that doesn't matter. ALL of Sundays are out? Like even a 2 or 4 PM? Cuz my Yahoo draft is currently scheduled for Sun at 4 PM. I could move it to Sat at 2 PM (and change my NFL BC from 4 PM to 4:30 PM). The Yahoo is a long draft, and I don't wanna cut it close. That's why I always do it after the NFL. I could switch my NFL from 4 PM to 2 PM, and that would solve it. I'd have to send out an email to the league is all. I'm thinker Steelers 1954 prefers his league a week early, so that shouldn't affect you. TBH, I could change the GY to that week earlier, but it's bad enough trying to get folks to declare their keepers before the 3rd preseason game, much less the 2nd - so I'm loathe to do it.

Starting august 30th all sundays are out for me. Especially the times you mentioned because I no longer will have access to a pc or WiFi

Starting august 30th all sundays are out for me. Especially the times you mentioned because I no longer will have access to a pc or WiFi I meant from 2 PM (not 4 PM) to 4:30 PM. Anyway, lemme work on this. A keeper league should draft as late as possible. There could be injuries during pre-season, hell we're already seeing some, and we have to declare a week or two early. I'd normally be good with a few days, but you just know some people will forget. It's only a half day's work, tracking down players true draft rounds and eligibility. Plugging them in to the draft takes less than 1/2 hour. So I'm thinking at least Yahoo and GY Hive on Saturday. But if Steelers 1954 wants to make his NFFL the week before on Sun (Aug-something), I might move my NFL there too. Cuz 3 drafts back to back is a little much. But might do it. GY Hive at noon EST Sat 9/4, my NFL BC at 2 PM, Yahoo at 4 PM. Yes, I think that's it. With keepers, the GY should take little more than an hour.
