In my opinion 3 days is just too short of time in my mind to comb through free agency and sign players. With the league as competitive as it is, Free Agency plays a huge part of teams putting a team together that they feel can compete. Yes, I understand that the free agency pool has looked dreadful these past years, but there are always players that are talented enough for multiple teams to bid on. Having it set to 3 days would limit the amount of time allowed by teams to find a back up option if they miss out on their primary targets(Especially when there are players out there that can't make up their mind. Even when you're the only offer on the table.) I even noticed that this year's 1st day of free agency ran on a Saturday night, a night that usually all of MFN has off and it would've left those owners that were unaware with only 2 days left of free agency to fill voids on their roster. That's the primary reason that I voted No to changing FA to 3 days. If it were bumped up to 4 of Free Agency though, I think it'd be long enough to give teams time to go through their targets and also short enough where it didn't necessarily feel like an eternity. A nice compromise to those who can't wait for the draft and those who prefer filling out their teams through FA... and of course giving Beercloud time to work on stuff behind the scenes.


I agree it is too short. There are 6-8 teams right now that have a hard time keeping up with the pace, adding a quicker pace will be a bigger hindrance to those franchises.

FA is too long. How much time do you want to look at 100 year old players?

I get it, fortunately my son is raised, not married, pretty much on my own. I don't have anyone else to be conscious of. For example this week I had an interview for a different position, went to an art show, having a tooth pulled, going to a concert, have a meeting with my adviser, worked, finished 2 papers and had a test, so it can be done. I don't have to spend anytime with the wife, kids, or any other family though. I have already agreed that 5 weeks is a bit long, I would vote for 4. Anything less is too short, my top leagues are the ones with a 4 day free agency. This is obviously #1, so I will tolerate more. :)

MFN 24/7. Kids and wife don’t get in my way. Seriously though. 4 would be a good compromise but if 5 so be it. I’ll be ok. Coach norm and I can haggle over 60 rated FBs. All in good fun!!

Unfortunately those days are over. Now you need a legit QB and that gets you 250 yds. Maybe.
