That's a good idea considering we start in Xmas time and there are two weeks rounds here and there (including the very first one).
What I do think would work is changing the waiver process from 24 hours to 48. Would anybody have a problem with this?

i assume that would limit the number of people you add and drop? fine by me, since i usually roll with by main group of guys and really only change pieces due to injuries or lack of production.
Sorry I missed the draft was out for drinks!! Open for trade talks!!!

Who made the most lopsided trade in this league? The trade doesnt make sense at all. John Wall, Z-Bo, and Tony for Gortat, Jennings, and DeRoza?
Wall > Jennings
Randolph < Gortat
Douglas < DeRozan
seems fair to me
Thats bullshit on the Gortat part. Wall is WAY BETTER then Jennings. Z-Bo is a double double monster. Hes predicted to go 20-10 compared to what Gortat is 12 and 8. How is he better. DeRozan is barely better. You can ASK ANYBODY that has knowledge about basketball will say that is unfair. Thats Lakers- Grizzlies trade. He is handing you 2 sick players.
If Gortat is better then Z-bo, why was he going in the in the 5th round compared to Zachs 3rd round.
Jenning was 7th round while Wall is 2nd.
DeRozan is a 9th compared to Tonys 10th.
This is unfair.

You're looking at it from a regular basketball standpoint instead of a fantasy one. Both Wall and Jennings are inefficient, about the same scoring, wall has more assists but more turnovers. Gortat was the 6th best fantasy Center last year, even after playing half the season from the bench.
Douglas is going to have to compete with Baron Davis for minutes when he comes back, plus Melo and Amare have to get their touches and Landry Fields is going to handle the rock too.
Marcin Gortat
Phoenix Suns
ELIG: C
PRK: 6
After a trade sent him to Phoenix, Gortat was one of fantasy's best big men with 15.3 points, 10.6 rebounds and 1.5 blocks after the All-Star break... Now that he has clearly separated himself as the center of the future in Phoenix, we can expect big things from the 27-year-old going forward.
Zach Randolph
Memphis Grizzlies
ELIG: PF
PRK: 11
Blocks are super rare in fantasy. That's why Gortat is so highly valued.
Wall is better at steal. Better at rebounds. Potential of scoring is going up being that its his second year and being the Main guy in the Wizards. Wall avg 3 more assist a game compared to Jennings and its only expect to get better. Wall has 1 more TO. No fair.
Z-bo like I said is a double double monster. Hes better at Steals, Rebounds, and scoring. He is even a better man at assist. to say I get a guy that avgs a extra block is not even.
Player position rank should not even be tossed in there for that is so misleading. Williams is the 4th rank Pg, are you saying that a straight up trade for the 4th rank sg, sf, pf, or c will be even?
I'm not arguing that Wall isn't better. Just not drastically better like you seem to believe. Both average around 2 steals, both around 18 points, Wall gives you one more rebound and three more assists while also giving you at least one more turnover. Plus he has durability concerns. DeRozan will be a 20/4/2/1 player next year and Douglas will be 13/4/5/1, that's before thinking about him splitting time with Baron. Randolph isn't valued nearly as highly as Gortat because there are tons of ways to get points and rebounds, but maybe 8 guys who can get you 2 blocks and double digit rebounds.
