My reasoning is that the keeper cutoff exists to give managers enough time to formulate a draft strategy and there's still ample time to plan. There's no trade partner or next waiver guy that's getting screwed and it was an honest mistake that he took back immediately.

Happy to put this to a vote if anyone seconds the objection.

Swooping in on CJr so Luck has a number 1, throw in Hill in the running game, behind that SOLID offensive line, and I figure playoffs are a given!

Hello I have some dumb questions.

There is no way to trade for more auction bucks, right?

If a player is dropped to free agency, does their keeper salary reset? Or does it stay with them?

This league has normal waivers, right? No transaction costs or anything?

Any slots left? I'm pretty drat sure my old goon league Goonball has dried up and blown away (never liked IDP anyway) and this league seems to have the best gimmick.

P sure the league is full, get on the waiting list for next year, this is a cool league, I hope.

And, if we want to allow auction bucks to be traded, IDK how, but that should be set up in advance. In my Goon baseball league the commish just let us start trading keeper slots and bucks and some owners had a hissy fit...

Can't trade players for auction bucks because software limitations. Also prevents "rich getting richer" situations which I'd like to avoid since keeper discounts already have a lot of variance.

Keeper salaries are fixed at draft. You cannot reset keeper values by temporarily dipping players into FA.

Yeah it's baby's first league waivers (inverse standing and reset every week), I think it's consistent with the casual vibe we have going for the league but open to changing this if you guys prefer another method

Sorry we're all full up. Last year we had at least 1 team that was abandoned midseason - hopefully that doesn't happen again but we'll keep you in mind if it does
