Zero2Cool;250653Those who participated last season, have first dibs on retaining their team. If someone fails to respond in an adequate amount of time, then we use the reserve/waiting list to fill the position/s.

Around mid-late August is when the roster of players will have to be solidified.

Gotta have all the players set and set the draft to work for as many included.

Ah so I did understand it correctly. Question about the keeper players: do any new team owners get some kind of priority in the draft vs teams that keep players from last year? Never actually done a keeper league before so it's a little new to me. [shrug]

This is the first year of the keeper part. So, it is kinda new to me as well, lol.

Basically, there are 14 teams. Each team has up to 3 keepers on it. Now, who owns those teams? That can change from year to year.

Example, I owned team MutatedMonkeyNuts last season, so I will continue with that team this 2013 season while selecting up to 3 players to keep for 2013 that I had during the 2012 season.


Lets say I opt out, or say 'eh I will pass this year' and my team goes to the first on the waiting list. That person then gets to choose up to 3 players to keep from the roster I drafted in 2012 for their 2013 draft.


I don't know if I helped or made it more confusing. But if you inherit a team, then you choose from that roster which players to keep.

Since it's the first year as a Keeper League, do you mean this year's teams DO or DO NOT get 3 players from last year's teams?

This is the first season we get to KEEP players from the prior season.

No worries, explained it perfectly. Next question: is pack93z supposed to be listed twice under the priority list?

To be fair, he is twice as important ... [grin1]

Zero2Cool;250665This is the first season we get to KEEP players from the prior season.

I didn't know it was a keeper league when drafting last season.
Was that established?
Because the strategies can certainly be a little different going into the 1st season of a keeper league vs. a single season league.
If it wasn't known to be a keeper league before hand, it seems kind of weird to make it one after one season.
Just my two cents.
:-k

Are you saying if it is going to be a keeper league, we shouldn't have the option of keeping three players from 2012 for 2013 and instead should start clean and first time keeping players will be 2014 season from the 2013 season?


It wasn't decided to be a keeper league until well after the season concluded.

If this isn't the proper/best way to go about this, feedback is appreciated. Personally, I didn't think it would be a problem and thought it would be an added bonus to have the option of keeping three from the 2012 roster. [shrug]

I was saying it would probably be best to know it was a keeper league going into the first draft, as it can alter the strategy a picking certain players a bit (e.g. perhaps passing on someone like Peyton Manning for Russell Wilson, etc.).


It really doesn't matter to me, as I'm going to play either way, but I just thought I would throw that out there.

I never thought about it cuz I wouldn't have drafted differently, lol.
I do see your point.

It doesn't matter to me. If several come forward disliking this, we can always draft full fresh and do 2014 as keeper from 2013.
