SuperCaleyGoBallistic Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Stockholm Syndrome are in. Loads of bench positions for this, assume its so you can stockpile rookies and hope a few become starters? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BishyTON Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Stockholm Syndrome are in. Loads of bench positions for this, assume its so you can stockpile rookies and hope a few become starters? Yeah exactly. But remember you will have to release some of them at the end of the each season to enable you to draft players in the rookie draft. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Marnie Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 How many keepers are we going to go with every season? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BishyTON Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 How many keepers are we going to go with every season? Says 25 in the rules, so I suppose you could keep all of your players if you wish. Of course, that would never actually happen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerSaint Posted June 20, 2013 Author Share Posted June 20, 2013 (edited) How many keepers are we going to go with every season? Every player. It will be a 5 round rookie draft each year starting in 2014, but I'm hoping that you can draft first then decide who makes your final roster later. That way, you don't need to cut anyone if you don't need/want to. There is a way to do it by adding in IR spots and fiddling about a bit, but we'll leave that until next year as not to confuse anyone (me!).

That way, you don't need to cut anyone if you don't need to. So we'd draft 5 rookies in a snake style format then decide who (if any) of those 5 we keep & release X amount of players to FA yeh? How does this set up account for retirements? Or is that a case of thought shit for having a vet on your team & have to fill that gap through FA/trades? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be a traditional style draft with the bottom ranked team drafting first in every round and the Superbowl winner drafting last in every round (excluding trades). Pretty much tough shit. That's why you'll see younger players being drafted a little bit higher than veterans. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bully Wee Villa Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Bugger. Missed this. If you fancy changing it to three divisions of six so Andy and myself can take part, let me know. If not, fair enough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkBlue62 Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Resisted naming my team either "The Tannehills Have Eyes" or "Belicheck Yourself Before You Rex Yourself" and plumped with the usual "The Royal Tannehills" I have just seen this. I opted to shorten the latter when I joined earlier. Don't hate me internet! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dee4Life1893 Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Just waiting on South Lanarkshire Jag to join the league then we're all set. 1. How and where do i sign up? Bleurgh, brain-fade I'm IN. I'll be doing the draft in Korea time I slept in and missed this. Dreading looking at my team. I'm genuinely not in this fantasy league. I thought i had signed up, turns out i haven't. Edited to add: Just checked on NFL.com. The only two leagues i'm in is my league of 6 and an NFL managed one with none of the team names above. Not much hope. Let the other Cowdenbeath guy in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Lanarkshire Jag Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Signed up as the final member of the South conference. Have bookmarked the site so I can always find it when I make my drunken trades. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerSaint Posted June 22, 2013 Author Share Posted June 22, 2013 Now that it's full, the schedule and draft order has been randomly generated. Don't see too much wrong with these or the divisions right now, so they will remain set unless anyone has any strong objections. IMPORTANT: The draft itself will be an email draft. You will get an email to notify you when it's your pick and you'll need to log on and make your selection. Fleaflicker does work on all mobile devices and tablets as far as I know, making it easier to make your selection wherever you are. The start date has been set as Sunday 4th August. The draft itself should take about 2 weeks, depending on activity. If anyone is away for an extended period of time that stops them drafting, then it can be changed. Any questions? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
