Hey Guys,

I have done this at two other sites, wanted to see if there was any interest here.

Basically its a yahoo keeper league. Each team keeps 4 players every year (or 3 or 5 depending on the leagues wishes) and we redraft the rest of the players every year. We use Yahoo, H2H with a slightly modified scoring system. Usually it is 12 teams, but i am fine with 10 as well.

How we draft is a little different. Basically we make a draft thread. We start the draft about 6-8 weeks (Usually 6) before Kickoff of the first game and we use a thread to draft. Basically we post our picks in a thread and go one by one. In the first round or two each person gets 24 hours to pick, but then it goes down to 12 (Of course we can modify this). Draft picks and players can all be traded during the draft.

Any questions let me know, other wise join up and lets go.

This will be a free league, unless there is some overwhelming desire to make this a cheap buy in league like 20 bucks or so.

Up, to see if there are more people interested.

GrossmanMVP is in.

in if it's free

Definitely interested.

Lets get it peoples.

In if its not free

I would be interested, I've always wanted to try a keeper league.

In if it's free

But I personally think QBs are WAY too overpowered in this scoring system. Using this system, only 18 players topped 255 points last year: 15 QBs, 2 RB and a WR. I'd suggest lowering per completion to .10 (or maybe even .05) and making INTs -2 points each, because now instead of calling it fantasy football, you might as well call it Fantasy Quarterback.

Looking like its gunna be free. Lets get it.

Do you guys prefer 10 or 12 teams? Either is fine with me.

10

.

Alright we need one more then.

As far as keepers what do you guys prefer?

3, 4 or 5? We can also do Franchise and keep them all and only do a small draft every year, but thats up to you guys, im fine with any of these options.

hells yeah, was gone all week and am happy to take up the last spot

I'd prefer 3, since we only have 6 starting position players (rarely is someone going to want to keep a TE, K or DEF). Also, how are keepers going to work? There are a lot of different formats, just to throw a few out there (for a league with n keepers):

1. Every team keeps their n guys, normal draft of the guys not kept.

2. Every team keeps up to n guys, but it costs them their first n picks in the redraft. This helps increase parity in the league because a team that only has 0 or 1 players that are useful keepers gets an advantage in the redraft.

3. Every team keeps up to n guys, but keeping a guy costs you a pick in the redraft one (two would also work) spot higher than he did previous year. This means that 1st rounders can't be kept, and the first round is really the most luck dependent because if you get a low pick, there are guys who you'll never have the chance to take. But more importantly, this gives teams a big reward for finding young stars late in the draft because it's more valuable to keep someone you drafted in the 7th round than someone you drafted in the 3rd, even if the first guy has slightly less production. Personally, I prefer this method.

Also, how is redraft order going to be determined?

I vote 3 keepers and something along the lines of juntiac's 3rd suggestion.
