Like Dave below I think the dates are fine but the most important thing to me is to establish a draft schedule that can be, barring unforseen circumstances, adhered to. Knowing the dates now lets us (hopefully all of us) work around the drafts and make plans. To do that and have it switched is hard to take.

I also agree with Mike about making cutdown day a painful process by not allowing trades between drafts.

Just curious: how many times will you change the draft order for your teams ? I probably average 12 times each as I continually fine tune it.
