I think (and hope)the ratings will be a disaster. Thursday will be up against the networks primetime shows and then who will make Friday a priority for the 2nd round? The 2nd round normally has carryover viewers from the 1st round...you lose that by putting it on it's own night. Plus the draft in general is an event for the diehards...they will watch it no matter how fkd up the schedule is but for big ratings you need casual viewers. Only Thursday has the potential to bring in casual viewers but on Thursday there are lots of other choices in prime time.
