Best Way(s) to Implement a Delay in Command Groups

[xForceDee]

Today, my former team asked me what the best way to implement a delay in a command group is. They are well aware of the built in delays in the adding of the commands.

addSequential(new DriveForward(), DELAY_TIME);

But they want there to be a period where the robot does absolutely nothing for a while for some reason (I assume to let the ball settle). They seem convinced

Timer.delay(DELAY_TIME);

did not do what they wanted. I know one way to do it could be to make a command that does nothing but that seems a bit excessive, and I am not sure if you can make a command that doesn't require a subsystem (never have done that before) and don't know if that is fair game. So if someone could answer that, it would be cool also. Anyway, back to the real question, does anyone have a clean solution to this I could report back to them with?
