Once the season starts then we follow the yahoo rules.

the problem with that is that some of the dates/timing would be arbitrary.
say we finished our draft before the 4th preseason game, and then one of my players gets hurt. can i put that guy on IR and get back one of my cuts? no, that would be ridiculous, right? but the "season" hasnt started yet, so why does it matter? or what if we finished the draft before the NFL designates its IR status? ware was "out for the season" a couple weeks before he was on IR. so its then razors job (and all of ours) to keep track of who was cut but on a "do not pick up via FA" list?
i feel like its best to just keep things simple. you have a 20 player roster size and once the commish starts the league, you can make any roster moves you want to, ie put guys on IR
