I've done an NFL draft league for the last 4 years. Trust me, 30 seconds is enough. All of you lot will prepare for it, so 30 seconds should be enough. If you're able to do some mock drafts, you'll see that.

Sounds like even with a 90 second time limit, the draft won't take that long. 60 seconds might make it even a little quicker and should be enough time for everyone.
Back in the day when I was involved with ESPN NFL draft leagues and we converted to online drafts, IIRC we had a 60 second limit and it worked okay... and back then there were definitely connectivity challenges (site glitches and some folks on dial-up, etc).

Correct the Draft won't take long to complete. But, a little warning to some of the Draft Newbee's like me. The way the Premier League have set this game up, can catch some managers out. When other managers make fast selections, the clock stops and then it's the turn of the next manager. Be aware your turn can come around faster then you thought it would. Maybe lack of experience on my part, but, I found myself rushing even with 90 seconds on the clock. I suppose my problem was the false sense of time I believed I had to scan the selections when the Draft was moving around the others in the group. If your a Newbee and you get opportunity to have a trial run before the main event .... do so This post has been edited by Albert: Jul 27 2017, 05:59 AM -------------------- Winner of Sultans Champions League 2016/17
