I think Im gonna throw a curve ball

*checks list for baseball players*

the same as the last pick in the round it's in.

Wait, theres only one comp pick after the 4th round???

[Witlon]

Yup, just one. There's a 3.5MM cutoff in between contracts, so it felt natural to separate it there.

[Mach]

oh, misread that. Carry on.

Julius Thomas is pissed at this development, but I guess I understand the process...I still feel screwed!

[Witlon]

Oh yeah, on draft lists: include either position or school, and when you want the pick to be made (IE: Right away, hold it until late in your clock, ect. I know a lot of people from the past liked to announce their own picks.)

[Zeon]

When will the final roster cut down to 53 players be?

[Witlon]

Early next week. Don't have the exact date in front of me, but it'll be Monday or Tuesday, I'd guess.

[Mach]

the 22nd roughly

[gully]

udfa bidding over the weekend then?

[Witlon]

udfa bidding over the weekend then?

Yeah, starting a few minutes after the draft closes.

[Zeon]

Is there a practice squad in addition to the 53 man roster? If so, can we just take the last 8 players on our roster and shift them over to that? I only ask because I'm about 10 players over and trying to figure out who to release.

[Witlon]

Nope, no practice squad this year due to the compressed timeline. Just the standard 53 man.

[natewheel]

Can we "sign" our draft picks and add them to our rosters now? Do we need to add a "dead money" figure to them in case they are cut, or do we just never add them to the roster if they are not making the 53-man? (I had 1 or 2 pegged for the practice squad, but will now have to decide whether to squeeze them onto the 53-man or not)
