If this continues in future years, I would suggest that teams be placed on the clock.

For example round one is the first 24 hours and the first team can make their selection from 0000 - 0145 then the second team can pick from 0145 - 0330 and third team 0330 - 0515 and so on.

The only catch is a team may draft sooner if the team before them has already drafted, however a teams latest draft time will never be sooner because the team that drafted before them drafted before they had to. This will give players knowledge of knowing for certain when they can make their pick and may help speed things up. Without a setup like this we may and probably will at some point run into a problem where an owner does not make a selection and no one behind them will select anyone until this person makes their pick and then it will be a first come first serve which defeats the purpose of the order. Granted the tiem drawn may not be convienent for an owner, but if they really care they can get up during their time to make a selection or give their list of players in order. This is just a thought that may help this part of the league if it becomes a permanent fixture.
