The snake thing is good and bad. But I think the first round should be
randomly selected for ALL teams because the current way gives those not
keeping a franchise player a double benefit by picking in the supplemental
and then also at the top of the first round. Theoretically the non keeper
teams are getting the 8-14 best players who are arguably also franchise
players. In effect by not keeping a player you are randomly selecting a
lower level franchise player. So they shouldn't get the an automatic shot
at 15-22 or whatever it might be as well. So snake or no snake all of round
one should be random order.

< The following is the list of franchise players that have been kept:

< Grant Johnson - Eddie George

< I know this was brought up last year and we kind of decided much of

< 1-14, 14-1 for the whole draft? We will still have a supplemental round
< for those that do not keep franchise players. Then the non-franchise
< teams will pick in opposite order of the supplemental round for round
< one...thus if you pick first in the supplemental round, you will pick last

< the teams that kept franchise players will be randomly selected to pick at

< back the other way with the last pick in the first round getting the first
< pick in the second round and the draft will continue in this snake order
