Please vote in the poll, might be a good idea to start separate this year

[JimB (as in Brewers)]

I would support starting the RFA 1/14 and the UFA 2/1 but I do not want to start the UFA prior to the RFA ...

please vote and out your feedback right here

I think with the amount of new owners we have, it would be better if we started both at the same time. That way no one is blowing their cap space on ufas, not knowing how the rfa process works. I think its cleaner if all of bidding is open at the same time.

This is a good point I know it took me a little bit to catch on to the Riga bidding. I agree with this for this year. I do like the added strategy if they are split and would defiantly want that next year.

What happened to the usual start everything right after the Super Bowl?

Good reason to keep it as is, together.

RFA will start after superbowl

I kind of like it because now I get to do stuff in January. I also think it helps me know exactly what my RFA budget is. If I spend too much in UFA then I need to move some of my RFAS. I also would be cool as Jim said starting RFA two weeks before UFA

[Giants]

I really think we are doing a disservice to the new guys if we split it up. Start both after the super bowl like we traditionally do.

agree with Giants. plus the free for all when they all start at the same time, i find that as one of the best days of the year. why change a good thing?

[Deleted]

I am inclined to go with the greater good here sounds like most want to start all activity in the RFA/FA space the day after superbowl..

I am good for it..!

[Deleted]

Agreed.

The purpose of this poll was to gauge interest in splitting this up. Since it is so close we will continue with both opening the same day, I will post three possible dates later today.
