Draft - Allow Players to be traded during draft
Allow managers to trade players during a live draft.

I think that would delay the draft too much! Our league requires league review for trades during season and although most of my managers make the live draft, sometimes there are a couple that have to go auto for some reason or another.

Just the simple addition of being able to trade draft picks prior to the draft would be awesome! This for two years has been needed in our keeper league. On two separate occasions two managers have had to get on the phone while drafting, tell the other guy who to draft and then make a trade post draft. Just simply trading draft picks per draft would eliminate all of this! Thanks for listeniing

This would be an awesome idea! I'd been wanting Draft Pick Trades forever and then it was finally available; however, it seems severely flawed that they would not be allowed BEFORE or DURING a Draft being conducted!
Simple version:
Allow ONLY an even number of Draft Picks to change teams via trade (standard Draft Pick Trade rules)Advanced Version:
Allow an even number of Draft Picks (standard Draft Pick Trade rules) along with Keepers or already drafted players to change teams via trade (Awesome Version!)In either scenario, as Sam mentions, the Draft would need to pause (30 seconds) for Commissioner to approve (or Owners to vote) the trade and then reset the clock to allow the new team time to make their selection. Auto-drafters would automatically approve and if time expires before Owners vote, trades are approved.
Draft Pick Trades (any trades for that matter) completed prior to the Draft would be subject to the same rules as in-season trades...

my league does it unofficially already, but it would be awesome to actually be able to trade a pick for another pick, that would make things more exciting

Lovin' all these great ideas im seeing from people on here. How about YAC scored higher than yards gained beforehand?

Allow draft picks to be traded during the draft. Could be kept simple by allowing only trades involving equal number of picks to swap; only 1 for 1, 2 for 2, etc.
Draft pick times would have to be extended to allow review by balance of managers for fairness. Maybe 2mins gets added to clock if trade is proposed and accepted by two managers (one of whom was already on clock).
Either that, or a draft pick value chart would have to be created and the picks changing managers would need to be within a range of those values.
