I really, really, REALLY prefer to do it all in one shot, for the following reasons:

1. It replicates the real NFL UDFA signing period, which is kind of the point, right? Most teams sign 5-6 UDFAs maximum, and spend around $10,000 to $20,000 per. In addition, the signings are all done simultaneously in a post-draft frenzy.

2. It adds another level of strategy, in that you're bidding blind on multiple positions, and must balance your desire for one or two players with your desire to get several on the cheap, without any idea of who the other bidders are targeting.

3. It's much more fair, as several of us will be unable to check the Mane every day for several consecutive days, and will therefore have days when they can't participate. I'm in this group, as I've got a business trip this week.

That being said, I'm willing to bow to the wishes of the people -- if several teams are dead set on doing it position by position, feel free to speak up. We can decide by tomorrow what we're gonna do. I'll leave the bids unopened in my PM inbox, just in case....
