THE DRAFT
-
All coaches have a time limit of 2 minutes to draft a player.
The league secretary will start the timer and will let the coaches know
if they are close to their time limit. If you do not select within that
time, you will forfeit your selection at that time and move back one place
in the draft order. (i.e. If the team picking 3rd in the round doesn't
make a selection in the given time, then the team picking 4th in that round
will now pick 3rd. Team that failed to pick in that time will now pick
4th)
-
There will be 9 rounds.
-
Trading of first round positions must be done by 5pm on the
day before the draft.
You may trade:
your draft position for franchise players
your draft position for fantasy dollars
your draft position for another 1st round position
your draft position for any combination of the above
If you lose a spot in the first round draft due to a trade.
You may fill your roster up after the 9th round of the draft.
-
You must draft at least 1 player at each of the following
positions: QB, RB, WR/TE, Kicking Team, Defensive/Special Team
-
Coaches will designate 3 franchise players from the previous
years team. These players are not available to the league draft. You may
use them as "trade bait" to move up in the draft or acquire different franchise
players or acquire fantasy dollars.
-
Player Position: On draft day as coaches draft a player,
they must state that players position on your team. (i.e. Kordell Stewart,
QB) This player can only start at this position on your roster. When trading
or claiming players out of the pool, a new player can be re-declared to
his position on your roster.
-
Coaches must designate franchise
players with the Commish.
Once the league has received the designated franchise
players from all teams, a sheet will be passed out stating each teams franchise
players.
-
A $30 ENTRY FEE MUST BE RECEIVED
ON THE DAY OF THE DRAFT! NO EXCEPTIONS!!
TRADES AND CLAIMS
-
Each team is allotted $8 fantasy dollars. These fantasy dollars
are to be used in Drop/Adds and to place blind bids for players out of
the pool.
-
Week 1 and Week 2 is FREE DROP/ADD. After Week 2 all
Drop/Adds will cost a team a minimum of $1 Fantasy.
-
Tuesdays and Wednesdays, a team will place a blind bid into
the bid box or send the league office an email with the "subjet line" titled
"Blind Bid". On Thursday morning the High bids will be awarded the
player being claimed. In the case of a tieing bid, the team with
the worst record will be awarded the player. If the records are the
same, then the team with the lowest "points for" total will be awarded
the player. If a tie still exists, then the team that has the most
"points against" will be awarded the player.
-
Beginning Thursday morning thru Friday afternoon (3:00 pm),
the League Office will accept bids on players from the open pool on a "First
Come First Serve" basis. A $1 minimum is required to do this.
-
The player pool will remain open until playoffs. All trades
and drop/adds will end on a date to be set by league office.

Rosters will be locked on at the start of games in Week 13.

fantasy dollars for players.

Rule Definition:
There was a discussion in our first FFL meeting about
the trading of players between teams.
To better define:
What will not be allowed is the swapping of players
for a week or two to help another owner out because he might have a player
off on a bye week.
This is a judgement call, which will be made by the
Commish and Staff.
