So that tinsdale doesn't lose his normal pick time (he emailed me his pick), he's grabbing Austin Cooper. Poach is still active and ninek has exclusive rights until 11:28 am est

The Free Agent draft starts next week (July 27 @ noon est), it’s a slow draft (12 hours max per pick with the same poaching rules as the rookie draft) that will be conducted on the MFL site. Make sure you set your notifications accordingly, you can get text messages or emails when your turn comes up. I’ll send a similar message on the thread so that if you didn’t get this email, you do see it there.

I'll unlock everyone tonight so you can do that. And I'll amend the draft clock.

Everything should be good to go now. I'll remove picks so that no team goes over the 32 man roster on the evening of the 26th - so if you drop players 2 hours before the draft you don't get extra picks because of that.

Teams that will currently not get the maximum 12 rounds of draft picks (picks will be dropped from the end, not the beginning):

River City Cryptkeepers - Veritek83 - 11 picks
Big Picture - NineK11 - 8 picks
The Soulful Power Ballads - Forever Peace - 9 picks

If you want your full complement of 12, drop players until your roster hits 20 players.

I've made sure that everyone in the league will get an email when their draft pick is up. If you want to get text messages instead, check your team's settings in the "Wireless" section:

yup - just bear in mind that, in all likelihood, that is a pick you're likely to cut when rosters drop to 24 players.

Draft is live, I still have to edit the end of the draft to adjust for roster sizes. Had to deal with move-related meltdowns last night so I couldn't take care of it then.

Draft is over! Remember that rosters contract to 24 in a little over a week - so cut wisely after the first couple of preseason weeks.

Notoriously Flexible League

I'll go with final cuts by September 1 with contracts the next day. That will allow me to lock rosters and allow one free agent period prior to kickoffs.

I'd like them earlier so I can enter them in though.

I accidentally dropped one player too many :(

My contracts:

5 years - Terrell Watson, Jaguars

3 Years - Brandon Marshall, CJ Spiller, Julius Thomas

1 Year - Buccanneers

You have 23 players right now - anyone you add as a lark can be your extra 1 year contract, and you can upgrade one of your 3 years into a 5-year contract.

Yeah - it's a waiver request right now - we'll just work with that until sunday, then free-for-all, then I'll do another waiver request phase Sep 1-3 to allow for people to finalize contracts and put in true free agent requests.

Contracts are entered - please check your team to make sure everyone's in properly. Backno, two of your players were picked up after the deadline - I'm going to count em as Free Agent acquisitions. Sound good?

Also, Tinsdale, you can promote one of your 1yr people to a 3yr - Chris Ivory was already signed.

Use add free agent rather than add player, it's instant until the player has his game kickoff

Anyone opposed to forcing the lineup to whatever the fantasy pros lineup suggester recommends?

It would be

Jameis Winston
Devonta Freeman
Adrian Peterson
Alshon Jeffery
Brandon Marshall
Mike Evans
Julius Thomas
Sebastian Janikowski
Jags D

Usually those designations come from the muckety mucks at MFL - I assume a change will be likely in the next couple days.
