Guessing there's no way I'd be allowed to drop a player who was cut and technically isn't in the NFL anymore? Figured it wouldn't hurt to ask. Edit: He was cut after our keep lock-in. atomictyler fucked around with this message at 02:56 on Sep 1, 2016 |

Rueben Randle Edit: Can I propose that we can drop players who are cut during the one week we can't drop players?

He's been cut two years in a row for lack of effort. I can't imagine he's wanted or will be worth anything other than a warm body. I assumed his first cut would make him realize he should try. What's the reason behind the "can't drop week"? I can't see it being helpful for anyone especially when players can still get cut or have major injury. Is the week or no dropping in the rules? Edit: As I see you can move players to IR. So players getting cut really fucks you because you can't do anything with them and you can't draft for the player who isn't playing. atomictyler fucked around with this message at 03:06 on Sep 1, 2016 |

Only thing I'm seeing is this: "At least one week prior to the Rookie Draft, teams are unlocked and Owners may trade and drop players." Nothing about locking rosters so we can't drop players, so there's no rule change to vote on.

In every other keeper league I've played in keepers locked an hour before the draft. I could see maybe doing two hours for this because of the roster sizes. A full week seems WAY excessive, as a lot can happen during a week in the NFL. I'd hope it doesn't take a week to make your first pick of the draft. It'd be like if we had everyone submit their first round pick one day and then required a week before we started the second round. Also, there was nothing from stopping the person with the first pick from dropping his highest salary guy a week before and drafting him. I'm not sure why having them locked now changes that. If he wants to waste his first pick on a salary dump and not the best rookie then I guess we can let him shoot himself in the foot. atomictyler fucked around with this message at 14:36 on Sep 1, 2016 |

Could I propose we change the second waiver ending at like 11:30am est on Sundays? I keep getting screwed with guys who end up going out on Saturdays. I seem to have 2-4 players that get down graded to out on Saturdays and once that happens there's NOTHING that I can do. I'm guessing it's screwed other people over once or twice too, but I haven't been keeping track of other teams very much.

Pretty sure there's still London games, but they'll be at a normal 1pm est start time instead of the 9:30am start times. I suppose late Saturday is better. I'd rather just go later on Sunday and make it 12:30 on Sunday. I get the time zone things, but everyone really should be checking their lineups before games for players that are game time decisions. I did it every week when I lived in the mountain time zone, and will be once I'm back in it next season. Any other league I can keep an eye on players and grab a player last minute if needed, but with the bidding we have that's not even possible.

If we're doing Saturday we should do 11:59pm. Then west coasters can set their rosters at night and east coasters can set them in the morning. I've been screwed a few times because players don't even get designated as out until after the saturday waiver so there's jack poo poo I can do about it. That's made me really uncomfortable sitting there not being able to do anything. We can't accommodate to everyone's schedule, but we should have it set so that we can set our lineups if we're actually paying attention. I've missed waivers before because I was busy in real life, but I'm not going to set rules around that because it's not fair for people who can/do stay on top of it.

Leperflesh posted:I guess I'm still confused about this. Are you saying you've had players who were not designated as Questionable, suddenly be Out after saturday practice? Yes, today that happened with Clowney. Bennett hasn't played in like 5 weeks and every Sunday night/Monday morning he gets set to questionable. He's then set back to Out at some point Saturday night/Sunday morning. It's making it impossible to keep a full roster when the waiver time is almost always past when the designations get changed to Out. Edit: This has been happening with all three of my DE's too. They've been switching to questionable and back to out past the waiver time. It's making it very difficult to submit a full roster for game time. I'm sure this isn't going to be a common thing, but it's something that could easily be avoided with the waiver being as close to the games as possible. I think Saturday at 7pm is still way too early because of how delayed some of the status can be in MFL. I've read players being downgraded to out and then sat here for a couple hours waiting for the MFL designation so I can move them to IR and try to get a player and it's been after the waiver every drat time. Edit2: Screen shot of when Clowney was downgraded to Out and that he had practiced all week. loving around with the message again: http://www.rotoworld.com/recent/nfl/5530/michael-bennett Just go through all of his season this year. They knew he would be out because of surgery, but MFL kept switching him to questionable every week. MFL status changes can't be fixed, but allowing me to waiver after he gets set back to Out could be fixed. atomictyler fucked around with this message at 05:23 on Dec 4, 2016 |

Here's a case for making it Sunday, but the change could possibly be too even for a Sunday morning waiver. "Lions want to see how WR Marvin Jones feels before today's game before making decision on whether he's active. Looked better at practice Fri" practiced and they still might change him to Out. It's not a big deal when it's a single player, but I just happened to end up with all three guys that play the same position have this happen multiple weeks.

Bloody posted:If a player has dicked you around all season maybe you should replace them It was all three of my DEs. A simple fix is to change the waiver time. There's a lot of status changes that happen Saturday (even Sunday morning, but less so), so I don't understand why moving it wouldn't be beneficial for everyone. This hasn't been due to lack of effort either. It seems whenever I get a DE they get hurt and are always questionable until Saturday and then go Out. I really have been trying. Bennett def out because of surgery. atomictyler fucked around with this message at 18:16 on Dec 4, 2016 |

Leperflesh posted:OK I just want to be clear; Clowney was listed as Questionable all week, and was downgraded to Out today. We aren't talking about players with no injury designation suddenly being Out... we're talking about injured players who are Questionable, but you preferred to gamble by not acquiring a healthy backup earlier in the week. There's also a shitload of players that get listed as questionable, limited in practice and then play. We can't just act as if every questionable player isn't playing, it's impossible. I also do have two others DEs who have been going back and forth too. Again, this is a dynasty league so I'm not dropping my best players for that position when it could be fixed with a wavier time that's after the majority of players get marked as out. There's also players who I KNOW will be out, but MFL doesn't change their status until AFTER our waiver period. Has there EVER been a trade that involved a FA signing on a Saturday? I still think midnight Saturday for the waiver is good. That's 9pm west coast, so you have time to make adjustments before bed and people on the east coast can make their roster adjustments in the morning well before games start. If someone requires 13 hours of sleep regularly they might want to make a doctors appointment, because something is wrong.

Leperflesh posted:It's gonna be like 20+ years before David Johnson is too expensive to keep, right? I think we need to ride out at least one more year before changing it. It's all going to start adding up in a year or two. Having high paid players and getting rookies every year is going to force people to make some tough choices. Even if we did raise it to 20% whoever has David Johnson isn't dropping him. He got a really good grab, but we can't go and change everything based on an individual player (regardless of who it is). Most people seem to be around the $200 mark and once you include the 10% and next years rookies things get tight right there. The following year people are definitely going to have to start dropping either star players or a bunch of average guys.

This might be a terrible idea. For players drafted as rookies we could have a salary scale that can increase based on performance. We'd need to set thresholds and what to jump their salary to, but it's something that could be used to keep "life long star players". It's basically how contracts work in real sports, if a young player does really well their next contract is going to be significantly more expensive than the rookie one was.

A) yes and yes B) I'd say if a player performs in a top x (maybe top 10?) for his position then we could figure out some way to increase the salary to be in line with a top 10 player. That player should be given the lowest price point for those level of players, because the person who drafted him should get something for making a good pick, but I don't think we want a player locked up for their entire career. I think we should implement something this year, but the rule doesn't take effect until the end of this season so people have a year to adjust for the new rule. C) I like the idea of C.4, but I'm not set on anything here. I do like the idea of C.5, having rookies and free agents done separate. So we have several options, please vote: And that reminds me: D: yes

Not sure "stashing" is the proper word. I'm guessing when you say that you're talking about people picking up FAs that are already on the IR. I've got 3 WRs that are on the IR and I've had all of them as long as it was possible to in this league. If a teams injuries start to add up then you've basically eliminated one team from competition as it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to drop a really good player because they're injured for 8-16 games. Right now I plan to see if I can wait out all these injures and if not then I'll basically be a free win for anyone I go against. I won't be intentionally trying to lose, but my roster is all tied up. In a normal league I'd just dump them and move on, but it's not.
