Re: Keaney Blue Fantasy Football League!!!
TP, I agree, its time to get billyboy and joe signed up, we can add the other guys if they still want in.
Either way Dude, if UHC's son doesn't get in soon and you would reconsider using yahoo you could be our even number, last one in. Really Yahoo fantasy football is a very good site, if you're thinking of yahoo news in comparison don't.

This will be my first experience with a keeper league. Looking forward to that added facet.

Re: Keaney Blue Fantasy Football League!!!
How does the draft work for the "expansion" teams? Since those teams don't have any keeper players, do they get to draft first?

You're going to acquire the roster of one of the players that is leaving the league. Invite on the way.Billyboy78 wrote:How does the draft work for the "expansion" teams? Since those teams don't have any keeper players, do they get to draft first?

Re: Keaney Blue Fantasy Football League!!!
Ok lets start discussing draft day and time, right now its set for Saturday the 5th at 1:15p, obviously because that works for me, but we want as many people to draft live as possible of course, would love if everyone could at least make it for the first several rounds...

I have a draft at 3 on the same day, but I'm guessing ours should be over long before that.Running Ram wrote:Ok lets start discussing draft day and time, right now its set for Saturday the 5th at 1:15p, obviously because that works for me, but we want as many people to draft live as possible of course, would love if everyone could at least make it for the first several rounds...

One spot left. Bleed Blue has dibs if he responds in next 24 hours. Anyone who wants in should he not respond, let me know.

Re: Keaney Blue Fantasy Football League!!!
Yeah Joe, keep one, you'll want to find out what round he was drafted in last year. We can't set that up until all teams are locked in, once that happens you can officially choose your keeper and will have until Friday the 4th to decide I believe.

Re: Keaney Blue Fantasy Football League!!!
okay, it's sounding more and more like Saturday the 5th will be a decent day, I'm going to roll the start time back 15m to 1:00p just to make sure Billyboy can make his 3p draft for his other league and we'll go from there, please, everyone else that hasn't weighed in on draft day/time, do so. The goal is still to get everyone to at least draft some if not all of their teams live.
Also, the keeper date I had set for the 31st I guess I was thinking I wanted to give TP and myself enough leeway to get all the manual draft info into the system, but I think that can be rolled forward til at least the 3rd or 4th. Start thinking about your keepers and draft spot trades now so we can be set to go by then.

Re: Keaney Blue Fantasy Football League!!!
Yeah, we're locked in at 12 so that we can move forward with set up, but if two more people from the board definitely want in, I think we can unlock and add them, if that is okay with the majority.

TP, now that we're at 12 and locked in we can probably move this back to the "Down the Line" index, thanks for giving it some time over here.

Re: Keaney Blue Fantasy Football League!!!
If there isn't an option for it in the Yahoo system, I imagine it would be easy enough for us to just make a declaration on the league's message board or in the draft chat room, before the draft starts. (The former method being much more preferable to me than the latter.)KillSteenKill wrote:What is the method for designating our keeper?

Re: Keaney Blue Fantasy Football League!!!
i think there is a keeper tab. TP/RR, how does the free agent budget work? is there one chance per week, or can you pick up guys later during the week, for some small fee? i sometimes find bargains after cuts and so forth; curious how that works.

Re: Keaney Blue Fantasy Football League!!!
UCH the free agent budget is you get a set amount of "money" for the season (usually $100) when the players lock you have to blind bid on the player, highest bid gets it (there will be tie breakers too). I don't know about during the week, I assume it is the same as it is, free to drop and pick up anyone unless they are on waivers
For keepers when you go to your team below the fantasy bar there is Roster Player Updates and later is Keepers click on it and click the box next to the player you want to keep then click save at the bottom

Have we talked about keeper rules, ie can't keep anyone from first two rounds, etc.? Or just going to use default setting.

Re: Keaney Blue Fantasy Football League!!!
Does every prefer to do the draft during the day on Saturday? Am I the only one for whom that is the worst timing? It's the last weekend of summer I'm going to be running around like a maniac. A weeknight would be much better for me.

Re: Keaney Blue Fantasy Football League!!!
BB, glad you reminded me about draft time, yeah its now set to 1pm, but I originally had it set for 1:15am (no bueno). TP, I'm not sure what other time might fit for most everyone else, but that's a discussion that has to happen quickly as the day approaches quickly...
I think we discussed the basics of Keeper rules anyway, and didn't discuss restrictions on 1st and 2nd round keepers. Just that we would be able to choose one keeper for a total of two years if desired, at the price of last years draft round and if kept for a second year the price is twice! example: if you keep someone from round 8, year two the price is round 4 if kept.

This Saturday at 1pm doesn't work for me, if we did it during the evening/later on past 7pm or so I would be available. I can always auto-draft or however that would work.

Re: Keaney Blue Fantasy Football League!!!
I have no problem shifting the draft time around, but its cutting it kind of close, so if we want to make a change there lets hear from folks very soon, otherwise Saturday afternoon seems like the best fit so far. Yup, FA keepers cost a 12th round pick.

Re: Keaney Blue Fantasy Football League!!!
Is everyone happy with their keeper selections? More specifically those two that chose to forgo holding onto player, is this your final choice or did you accidentally miss the deadline? if you missed let us know asap so we can get the draft pick adjustments done.

There's a keeper button in the horizontal control bar when you drill into your team. Then you mark one player with the checkbox.
