I prefer somewhere between 30-32 rounds. There are definitely draftable player in rounds 33-35, it's just at the expense of a longer draft. The fast drafts seem to move along fairly well even at 35 rounds. I'll play either way, but just a bit shorter might be preferred.

Agreed......30 rounds for me.

Absolutely stay 35 rounds IMO. Quality guys available then and more importantly, there are way too many injuries. 35 rounds helps to minimize zeros

another important point for keeping at 35

35 felt good to me. Especially in the earlier ones, gives you a chance to take some shots, back-up players, etc.

I vote for increasing to 40 rounds. Way too many players mid-season not on anybody's team scoring pts and people with zeros in the lineup. I found myself in rd 35 having to choose between a number of players. Would like to be able to pick some more players. Perhaps to speed up the draft put in the rules to decrease time per pick in later rds.

I definitely vote as many as possible. Some leagues injuries just piled up and if I didn't have 35 rounds I would have gotten 0's (even if with all those injuries I was likely done, I'd rather at least have a little chance). In the one live draft I filled in for, 26 rounds left me with plenty of 0's or close to them because of injuries. I probably won't do one of those again because 26 is not even close to enough for me. Just my 2 cents

i would like it either to stay at 35 or increase.... too many inuries in today's NFL... third string rbs are important to have in a contest like this...

also, what about some 14 team leagues that run outside of the national contest, playing for league prizes only?


also, i hope that the leagues that run before the NFL draft will have actual names of rookies in the queue and not placeholders. that was borderline disasterous last year....
