Hi guys. I'm thinking about entering the Diamond draft this year; however I would be much more apt to join if FAAB bidding was used to determine draft slots. I have no problem picking at the end of the draft IF the early draft slot owners use some FAAB to secure the best players, just like they do in the Platinum league. Helps even the field and for this type of entry fee, seems like a very good approach.

Greg asked me to post to see if the owners were willing to use FAAB bidding. Please consider, and post here if this is something you would be in favor of (or not in favor of). Greg will consider "greenlighting" if enough owners said yes. Thanks guys.
