And criteria for "on an AFC East team" I think will be active on game day for at least one regular season game or a rookie currently on the team in any capacity.

This was exactly the question I came here to ask. Cool.

I take it we're not going to have a D/ST slot? lol

This site is useful for just perusing depth charts and seeing if names on other teams ring an AFCE bell. I don't want to spoil anything but it's gonna get ugly...fast

Genuine Q: are we going to do anything special for Dalvin Cook? You could imagine a situation where he signs with the Jets or Dolphins at a point when there is only garbage and Dalvin Cook left on the Board. Depending when he signs relative to our draft, he could be a pretty big competitive advantage for the team that happens to be picking when he makes a decision. (But, on the other side of the coin, if he signs, like, tomorrow, it won't matter.)

Edit: I guess this could apply to Kareem Hunt and others too, I'm just mentioning Cook because it seems all but certain he'll sign in the AFCE.

Allow it but if they don't end up signing in division they count for 0 points?

I've never used Sleeper so I dunno if this is possible/obnoxious with their commish tools. Can you edit a roster and drop him?

My point was more: say it's the 10th round of the draft, and the board solely consists of extremely marginal contributors that *may* offer 1 or 2 fantasy points a game, and then Dalvin Cook signs with the Jets. For whoever happens to be picking, the pick is obviously Dalvin Cook, because he is going to outperform any of the other possible picks fivefold, maybe more. So one person gets extremely lucky and can pick Cook, who has huge marginal value because of the players on the rest of the board late in the draft, but the rest of the league has to pick from the scraps. He could be a pretty big gamechanger depending on when he signs compared to our draft.

Yeah I get what you meant. I was thinking this would sort itself out because someone will decide the risk/reward is worth it way earlier in the draft than round 10. When they're still foregoing a (marginally) useful player and not like, Matthew Slater.

Ah. I see where we talked past each other. I was thinking you couldn't draft him *at all* until he actually signed with an AFCE team, because at this point he's been on the Vikings his whole career, so the risk/reward strategy wouldn't even be on the table.

I'm not going to overthink it - with the first pick in the draft, Bjork Bjowlob selects the future Jets Superbowl MVP Aaron Rodgers - QB - NYJ.

Outstanding first pick.

Btw, haven't said as much yet, but really appreciate you all making this work and being so on top of making the picks. Really hoping we can keep this momentum even as we get to the stage of hoping we can coax Le'Veon Bell out of retirement.

If it's ever easier for any of you for whatever reason to send a queue of picks my way via PM (like tarbrush and TheBizzness did over the weekend), feel free to do that as well.

ANYWAY, Quiet Feet, chop chop!

Thank you for organizing it. It's been a lot of fun so far. :unsmith:

I was thinking about Bam. I think he's going to get cut. But there's so much RB depth around the league he might just end up back on the Jets' PS and not getting meaningful snaps anywhere else. I guess that's the reality of this draft though lol

Also, speaking of research and eligibility, kalensc brought up Dustin Hopkins who was drafted by the Bills in 2013. He got hurt right before the start of Week One so the Bills signed Dan Carpenter; Hopkins spent five regular season weeks on the Bills roster before being released, but he an inactive in each of those weeks. So nope, Dustin Hopkins is not eligible.
