Redraft League (1 Viewer)

The commish has already set the draft order through a random selection. There is one person who is not returning and a new owner has already taken his place. There is one more owner who may/may not return. How would you handle the draft order that has already been set? The draft is in two weeks.

Would you randomly scramble the order again?

Or would the newbies draft from the previous owner's spot or stick them at the end?

The draft order has been set for about 3 weeks now.

 
i just replaced someone in a league and was given the previous person's slot...12th in a 12 teamer. i think it is fine to do this, esp. if people have had their slots awhile.

I the number 1 pick in a set order leave, but I just let the replacement owner take his place since the replacement owner didn't know he was getting #1 anyways.

yup--since they've already planned for it, presumably
The draft order has been set for three weeks. I don't agree with changing the order... I am currently drafting 3rd. However, a good friend of mine who plays in this league thinks it's only fair to reset the draft order. We had an owner leave last year and the commish put him in the previous slot. What makes it different this year? He's scheduled to draft 8/12 and she's schedule to draft 9/12. :rolleyes:

sounds like he isn't happy with his draft spot and hopes to improve it.
 
what does your friend think is unfair about it? especially since it is random?? you can use me as an example being in the same position and being okay with it. i'm even a she like your owner. :)

She thinks that everyone should have a shot at a low draft slot including the newbies. I am all for being fair... But how can you take away 10 or 11 other draft slots to appease one (or two) newcomer(s)? I don't get it... I said that she would cry if she was in the 3 spot. :cry:

I just think that comes with being a replacement. the person that was replaced had a fair shot. You're taking their spot.
 
Why adjust it at all?

A. This is a redraft league.

B. If you adjust it you make 12 teams have to possibly readjust their strategies instead of one new owner coming in and adapting to how those around him/her draft.

Besides, the newbie did have a shot at a low draft seed when the person he/she is replacing's slot was assigned. It's not like your league just said, "Well Bob's leaving so whoever takes his place is now drafting last."

 
Women!?!

Kidding.

Heck no you don't re-do the draft order. The order for your league was already done.

Any change or re-do is complete bunk and underhanded.

You set the draft order ONCE. There are no re-dos. If someone bows out, then the

new owner inherits that spot. If the new owner doesn't like that, then good-bye, get

a new owner that accepts that decision. And someone who is staying in the league (already an owner) has nothing to voice.
