In part because of the KOs and in part because we're only 12 players, this draft is running so much different to vd2. It's kind of unfortunate I didn't realize it sooner (and I should have) as part of my early strategy was to use the Ted Williams pick to protect myself from the weak hitting years. Outside of the 1870s, I really don't feel like any of the others have presented themselves as that soft. The weak pitching years, however, are an entirely different matter altogether. I feel like if I had picked even one or two of them earlier, I'd be in better shape.
I feel like the positions weren't nearly as scarce as well. There's something like 4 or 5 catchers that still need to be taken and I'd be fine with any of them.
I'd be interested in taking one of these deeper decades and doing a draft from the best of that decade. Or a best of 2000-present."Igor, would you give me a hand with the bags?"
"Certainly. You take the blonde and I'll take the one in the turban!"

Hell, we could probably do a standard 14 hitters, 9 pitchers roster with the remaining players after we're done with this draft."Igor, would you give me a hand with the bags?"

And it would be a crime against Nature for any generation to take the world crisis so solemnly that it put off enjoying those things for which we were presumably designed in the first place, and which the gravest statesmen and the hoarsest politicians hope to make available to all men in the end: I mean the opportunity to do good work, to fall in love, to enjoy friends, to sit under trees, to read, to hit a ball and bounce the baby.

I've also always liked the idea of a progressive decade draft. Not sure about one decade at a time as the best players cause an imbalance, but what about:
1870 -- 1900
1901 -- 1939
1940 -- 1969
1970 -- present
Something like that...

We have a lot of options.
