So, we aren't going to be drafting college players??
FUTURE DRAFTS/KEEPERS
does this mean that you have to draft the player you keep, or can you get a player in a trade and still be able to keep him (as long as he was initially drafted by a team)?Depending on your finish in the league, you will be able to keep the following number of players for future seasons.
Keepers must have been drafted by team owner. (Free agent pickups are non-keepers).
I believe in this initial draft we are not going to do so. If people want to do it, we can draft 2 or something.
I'm not sure which way that should go.does this mean that you have to draft the player you keep, or can you get a player in a trade and still be able to keep him (as long as he was initially drafted by a team)?
I would vote that if you can obtain that player, you should be able to retain their rights to keeper status.
Man, it's hard for me to digest this. I see the that it helps to keep the league fresh by not allowing one or two teams to dominate, BUT, at the same time it rewards bottom-feeders too much.
I'd have to see how it really unfolds to really develop an opinion, but it looks as if a player (1st place) could draft a kick ass team, and then field a sucky team the next year simply because he lost players 7-??.
Carson Palmer highlights my potential concern. Supposing he were to miss the first 6 games this year (prolly won't happen, but stick with me), I'd like to start my backup QB, but I can't because I had to drop him to keep 5 other studs.
At the very least, I'd like to see 1st place allowed to keep 8 players. That would kind of help to keep it fresh, while not penalizing teams that have to accomodate a Carson Palmer injury.
Anyway, I'm in, but I don't like that I can outdraft everyone, only have future studs slip away.
I should shut up, but I want to also point out that player values are quite volatile from season to season. Example - Eli Manning went in the 15th round in a start-up dynasty league. This year he'd be a top 5 pick. I don't think sucky teams should be given a gift like Eli Manning simply because they sucked drafting, or even worse, they sucked because of an injury or two (akin to 1996/7 when the Spurs got TD because of a DRob injury).
Well a lot of keeper leagues, everyone only keeps 9 players straight across the board So for the first place team to keep 6 is very realistic. I looked at about 50 keeper leagues that use a sliding scale and the majority of them 1st place kept 4 or 5 players.
Everyone needs to answer these questions.
Do you want draft two college players to keep?
Do you want players that are traded to count as keepers or only players you drafted yourself?

Draft college guys: Yes.
New team retains player's rights: Yes.
I don't want to draft college players and however LJ answers is how I answer to the second question.
I'm no dyntasy/keeper specialist.
LJ: College-Yes Traded Players Still Keepers-Yes
Me: College-Yes Traded Players Still Keepers-Yes
What will this league be played on?
Since it's keepers, probably myfantasyleague.com. I'm playing with the software right now to see.
thanks looking forward to it.
We are voting on ppr. Yards/point rushing/receiving is set. We are voting on flex.
No one has brought up passing yards, you can make your case and people can vote.
It's not a pure dynasty, that's a decision LJ and I already made.
Then why did you ask me to join a dynasty league?
Because 3 months ago when we started thinking about a league, LJ thought it may be dynasty.
We added the keeper element.
I already told you that you can have your money back if you don't want to play.
Okay as we continue ..
Subject up for vote so far are:
Two college draftees vs No college
Keeper status transferred in trade - Yes or No
PPR - Yes or No
2WR/1Flex vs 3WR
The 15 yards for receiving/rushing are set.
I don't know if anyone has a problem with the passing yards.

I'm against college draftees - and I won't tell you why.
College or no college players is fine by me. Maybe lowering it to 1 could also work.
The college players would be automatic keepers for everyone ... they wouldn't count against your keeper limit.
Yes, for sure.
Yes.
Everyone needs to chime in on this stuff ...
my votes:
keeper status transferred in trade - yes
ppr - no
3wr
no college
keeper transferred in trade - yes
ppr - yes
3wr
1 college player
