This Year's Schedule of Events:
FA Extensions / Franchise Players: Early July (This will let us know who will be available as Free Agents)
Rookie Draft: Starts July 8th @ 12PM EST
Free Agent Draft: July 27th @ 12PM EST
First come first serve free agent pool (locked players): August 16th
Roster Size Shrinks to 24: August 19th
Free agent pool locked: August 23rd
Unassigned Contracts Submitted: August 23rd
Waivers, FCFS Free Agency (no locked players): August 28-Kickoff Week 1 (September 8)
After this period, normal season waiver / free agent rules apply

Draft and Contracts:
3 lengths of contracts exist:
5 years / 3 years / 1 years
All contract statuses will be listed in the contract status line for a player, and will be designated in quotes for this explanation (e.g. "Signed")

Rookie Draft (3 rounds): All draftees will be given a 5 year "Rookie Contract" which does not count towards any FA draft restrictions. Draft will take place in typical NFL draft style (1.1 also gets 2.1 unless trades occur), and be conducted via this thread.

Draft clock is 12 hours after being notified of your pick being up ("on the clock" time will be noted on the thread as well). You can pick any time after the last pick has been made, but your 12 hour window starts when you are notified. if you miss this window:

Your pick is not lost - you still have the opportunity to pick the player you want, however,
Your pick can be poached - If the next person in the draft makes a selection before you, their selection takes precedence over yours

FA Draft (10-12 rounds): All picks from this draft will be distributed into 1, 3, and 5 year contracts (e.g. if I pick up 8 players, I choose 3 as 5 year, 3 as 3 year, and 2 as 1 years). These contracts will all show up as "Signed."

If, within 1 hour of the FA draft beginning, you have more available picks than you do roster spots, we will eliminate the worst picks such that you cannot exceed your maximum roster size during the draft.

The Season 6 FA draft will be a slow draft with the same rules as the Rookie Draft - MFL will be the location of the draft, and a 12 hour clock will be in place. I will check on whether you can still pick someone after you missed your window, or if MFL typically causes people to lose picks if you don't choose in time.

All players who are not on a roster after the FA draft will have a "Free Agent" status. You can pick up any one of these players over the course of the year.

If you drop a player, his contract status and number of years does not change. Anyone picking up this player from waivers assumes the contract of that player as it stands.

At the end of the year, you are allowed to give 2 players with "Free Agent" status a contract extension for 2 years (effectively turning a free agent's 1 year contract into a 3 year contract). They will be listed as having a "FA Extension" after this point. You may also designate one player to use a "Franchise Player" status on, which is a one year contract for the following year. Franchise Tags are not contract extensions, they are new contracts that last only one year (Do not apply the franchise tag to a player with years remaining on his contract).

All players on the waiver wire, and players whose contracts have expired (unless extensions or franchise tags are applied) will then go to the Free Agent pool at the end of the year, whereupon their contract status is reset to "Free Agent"

Trade Review Process
The three Commissioners will review every trade and vote to approve or reject it. If you feel the wrong decision was made I'd be open to hearing your reasons in the event we've missed something. The final decision lies with the Commissioners.

Trading Draft Picks
Draft picks can be traded. Use the MFL Draft picks for Free Agent draft pick trades. Any Rookie Draft pick trades must be stated in this thread and approved as part of an overall trade.

Waivers and Free Agency
All players who are dropped are available on waivers after 2 days. If nobody claims the player, they become a free agent.
From kickoff of the first game of the week until 11:30 PM EST on Wednesday after games are over, all available players are on waivers. If they are not claimed, they return to free agency.

Players who are free agents can be picked up without any change in your waiver order.

That's all well and good, but how the gently caress do Waivers work?
When a player is eligible for a waiver claim and you want him, you submit a waiver request. When the claim period is over, people are given waiver requests based on their waiver priority and a few other rules.

Waiver priority is "Worst to First" as it stands when waivers are processed. That means that if you put in a request on Sunday after kickoff as the worst team in the league, and someone is worse than you at the end of the week's games, You no longer have top waiver priority

You may submit multiple players for each "round" of waiver requests (we allow 3 rounds of waiver requests). The Waiver Request Guide on MFL gives more in-depth explanation as to what a "round" of waiver requesting entails. From my understanding, each round corresponds to one dropped player, and 3 possible picked up players (in priority of importance). I don't believe the picked up players have to be the same position. Waiver order is reversed on each round, so in round 2 of waivers, it is "First to Worst" and round 3 is back to "Worst to First"

Roster Size & Starting Line-Up
The roster size for each team will be 24 and the starting line-up will be:

QB RB RB WR WR WR TE K DEF

There are two IR spots that can be used only for players that are designated as IR (I), whether it be designated for return or a full-year IR departure.

During the offseason, we will be turning off free agent acquisitions and waiver moves, but you will still be allowed to drop players. To accommodate extra players during rookie, FA draft, and preseason, the roster limit will be capped at 32 instead.

We have two teams available and need some fresh meat (erm, blood). I think that JTinsdale has someone in mind, so when he chimes in, he can have pick between oldskool and jabro's teams.

Sorry to hear about the circumstances of your departure oldskool, hopefully things will resolve favorably in the not too distant future. If we ever have an extra slot in the future I'll keep you in mind.

Rookie Slow Draft starts tomorrow! You should have gotten an email from me about the details. Make sure to post your pick in the thread so it gets captured for posterity.

Also, what is the league's thoughts on combining rookie and FA draft next year into one big slow draft? Rookies would still count as rookie contracts (default 5 years) and free agents would still follow the 1-3-5 distribution, but we'd only do one draft and you'd have to prioritize picking a rookie over a high-performing free agent. Doing one by the thread and one by MFL could be streamlined in this way.
