Ok, more stupid questions...we can keep up to 3 players in rounds after Rd 3 but you have to move up two rounds from original draft spot, right?

Not sure what you mean-- the round penalty for the keep is listed next to the player.

It would be nice if everyone can start dropping their definite non-keepers

One rule change I'd like to propose -- the Flex spot should also include TEs. Not sure why they were never included as flex players.

Sounds ok to me.

Makes sense to me.

Once upon a time, TE was a fantasy wasteland and no one ever considered playing one as a flex. Maybe that's why it was set up that way.

I dropped some of my players.

Since there's been no negative discussion, so shall it be written, so shall it be done. TEs are now flex-eligible.


Also, what was the decision on free agency? Are we using FAAB this year? I think we should put that up for a vote. You get $100, and the FAAB runs will be Wednesdays and Saturdays.

Out of curiosity, does the TE flex thing affect anyone's teams or keeper right now? I don't like the idea of changing rules just a week or two before the draft, but that's just me --- conservative.

I can't possibly see how it can affect keeper decisions. The number of quality TEs number about 6 or 7, and if you're going to keep two of them, they're probably in that group anyway.

I am all for FAAB

Poll put on the site. Vote, dammit!

I can't vote until I see some negative ads about each "candidate"

For example....FAAB, a system where everyone gets the exact same amount of money no matter how hard they work. FAAB = Socialism My name is Waivers and I approve this message.

As I said in JC's thread about starting up an auction league, FAAB is far preferable to FCFS, which rewards owners who are online all day, and reverse-order-of-standings, which rewards owners with crappy teams.

So let's turn that into a negative ad...

Do you believe that people who stay at home all day with no social life should be given more government benefits? Should owners with crappy teams get better players without having to earn it? Shouldn't we put a system into place that is fair for everyone where equality will reign. When you vote this week, remember, FAAB is fair. My name is FAAB and I approve this message.

[Hornsby]

I'm in favor of reverse order of standings...it'll reward the owner who may have had some bad luck down the line. FAAB usually ends up with about half the teams not spending more than 20% of their budgets.

Running backs go fast in this league:
Fred Jackson 3rd Rounder (Top 3 back last year before injury, very consistent)
Jamal Charles 4th Rounder "I feel better. I feel good. I feel like I have my mojo back, I'm happy and comfortable out there and I am ready to go," Charles said.

WR Available:
V Jackson 5th rounder (Freeman apparently loves him)
D Moore 9th rounder
G Little 8th rounder (Wheeten loved going to Blackman and they are similar type players)
