i like single pick option personally

greenjdo · 09-08-2011, 10:10 PM

Do it do it do it!!!!

houdini · 09-09-2011, 12:29 AM

Ok, I am doing it!

I am posting a poll about single slots or dual slots/snake. (I think single will win.)

I expect to post the draft on Saturday afternoon/evening.

I will honor all reserves in this post. I want 5 spots myself.

reddeer · 09-09-2011, 01:05 AM

I'll take between $50-$100 worth of slots...

Swivelhip · 09-09-2011, 01:33 AM

6 spots if its a single, 3 spots if its a double

hundley · 09-09-2011, 01:52 AM

put me down for two of this. might grab some more too when we get it more finalized.

i really like the player draft snake idea for this too, for whatever that's worth. i'd imagine that would work out rather well for a player break. kinda evens it out a little bit more, even if it costs more. you're a bit less likely to walk away with absolutely nothing, which is a pretty awful problem with a player break with something like topps chrome that has a lot of junk slots in it. it'd be pretty painful getting hit with a couple low slots and walking away from the break with a couple hundred yadier molinas, ricky romeros, adam linds and marlon byrds. if it's a snake player draft, you aren't going to be as upset dropping money on a sean rodriguez chrome slot, as it'll be handcuffed to a michael choice auto slot.

That makes sense... hey wait a minute! Sean Rodriguez is a RAY!

I believe the snake draft is more fair. However, 263 spots at $38 will be harder to fill than 526 at $20. (Crazy, I know.)

The single option is greater risk, greater reward. How many times have we seen a guy with 2 spots land them both in the top 10? That cannot happen in a snake draft. On the flip side, you cannot get a 500 spot without an awesome pick to go with it.

Also, remember that with 2 products, you can get an auto spot with the 80th pick or even farther.

grahamgdogg · 09-09-2011, 02:31 AM

I'll take 5 either way...
