Or atleast make it decent TV. I don't think the draft speed is an issue for front offices, they are prepared to the hilt.

Doing 2 full rounds and 2 compensatory rounds in one day then the other 18 another is fine. Tracker and bb1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Attempting to televise it was a bad idea. If you think Edmonton needed 6 minutes of being on the clock and two commercials to make their pick, I got a bridge to sell you. The only time these teams use the clock is when there are calls being made to/from other teams. Otherwise, they could probably bang the draft out in two-three hours.

Goalie Posted May 30 Report Share Posted May 30 (edited) Best draft for cfl might be going live to all the teams to make the picks. But doing it like super quick. Maybe after rd 1 we get a 10 minute breakdown of the 1 st rd picks then rapid fire the rest in 45 minutes. They all have lists. It doesn’t take 5 minutes to scratch guys names off Edited May 30 by Goalie Bigblue204 and wbbfan 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Start the clock on the 1st overall pick 5 minutes before they go to air. Goalie, Bigblue204 and wbbfan 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
