Amateur Draft

At one point this season, there was a discussion of expanding the number of rounds of the draft from 7 to 10 or 12 or even 15 (I think). What was the end result of that discussion? Are we staying with seven rounds?

Comments:
As I recall we decided to go with 11 rounds for this offseason and next and then re-evaluate for a bump up to 15 following that.

There was a caveat that all rounds after 7 would be handled by the game instead of picks to speed things up.

The discussion is here:

More properly, the discussion can be found here.

Personally, I'm in favor of going to 11 and then evaluating the results a year or two after that.

Does anyone have any objections?

None here.
 
I'm for it, perhaps obviously so.
 
Ok with me too. Anything that improves the draft pool and the talent available with the first pick in the draft works for me (Thanks Aaron!).

Uhhh. I mean, yeah, it will be good for the league.
