CXF Fantasy Football Keeper League Rules

A. Teams can select a maximum of SIX keepers of any position.

B. Teams can choose to keep less than SIX keepers.

C. If keeping less than the SIX keeper maximum, a manager will receive a compensatory pick for each spot left open.

D. All keepers must be turned in by the end of the NFL Draft's last pick. For 2020, that was April 26th, 2020.

E. If no keepers have been turned in by the keeper deadline, the commish will appoint keepers for that team. The team will be considered open/available for a different manager to take over at that point as well. If the manager returns, and the team is still open it's theirs. If the returning manager, that missed the keeper deadline, wants to alter keepers upon their return it will cost them, at least, a 2nd round pick.

F. After the keeper deadline, any unkept players on your roster are immediately considered free agents eligible for the upcoming draft. They are no longer considered on your roster.

G. There is not a duration limit that a player can be kept for. Players may be kept as many consecutive seasons as you would like.

H. Draft picks can be traded at any point during the season, off-season, and during the draft. The only exception is during the in-season trading deadline period. In this league, the amount of draft picks DO NOT have to balance on each side of the trade. If the trade occurrs DURING the fantasy regular season, at least 1 player must be included on each side of the draft to complete the transaction.

(Example: Team A trades Matt Stafford and a 13th and 14th Round Draft Pick to Team B for Matt Forte and a 1st Draft Pick. This is a legal trade.)

I. After the Fantasy Championship matchup has ended, the in-season trade deadline period will be lifted. Trading can again commence. Managers must post in the Fantasy Football thread any trade and both managers involved in the trade must confirm the trade is true before it is validated.

J. Draft Format. The draft will be 9 rounds, plus a compensatory round. Draft rounds are serpentine. The compensatory round will take place following Round 1. Compensatory picks are slotted based on the end of regular season standings per number of picks in the round. All first compensatory picks are slotted prior to the second compensatory picks, and so on. Any compensatory picks awarded because of an injury, retirement, or suspension exemption are slotted first come first serve at the end of all previously placed compensatory picks. The final round of the draft, Round 9, will be a lightning round this year. The lightning round will be a first come first serve round that lasts approximately 24 to 36 hours. If a pick has not been completed by the end of that round, the manager will have to complete it through the FAAB Benchwarmer Auction.

K. During the draft, a manager has 12 hours to complete a draft pick. The time starts immediately following the previous selection OR the previous manager hitting their time limit. This is subject to change if we are starting to run behind on time to complete the draft. The clock DOES start immediately following an invalid selection by a manager.

The Roy Ammendment:
In the event that a manager goes missing during the draft the following will happen. After they have had a pick skipped by 25 spots, they will be considered missing. They will then at that time have the best offensive players autodrafted for them for all of their pending picks regardless of any of their specific team needs. They are just getting the best available based on the yahoo rankings. They will be considered missing until they post in the thread that they are indeed back amongst the living. If any current picks for a missing manager do come up when they haven't returned, they will be auto skipped and given the best available offensive player by the commish. If you aren't going to be around, let the commish or someone know. We haven't encountered this issue since Roy is no longer in the league. In the event a situation does arise again, this is exactly how it will be handled.

L. If you draft a player without stats for the prior regular season during the draft that is a Rookie BEFORE the Yahoo! player pool is posted, and he is not in the player pool by the END of the draft, you lose that player as a draft pick and any rights to that player AND will be forced to select someone from the remaining undrafted players ONCE the draft is completed.

M. FAAB Benchwarmer Auction. After the draft is complete we'll fill out the remainder of your 20 man rosters through a Free Agent Acquisition Budget Waiver. We'll call this the Benchwarmer Auction. The Benchwarmer Auction will take place on yahoo, just the same as we do each week during the regular season for the FAAB waiver process of free agents. Each team will get $100, plus any potential bonuses, to spend on filling up the remainder of their roster. Any unused cash from the Benchwarmer Auction will not roll over to the regular season. So don't be cheap.

N. FAAB Bonuses. Below is a list of potential bonuses in FAAB cash that can be attained.

*Draft Pick Punctuality Bonus: If you have zero time limit delays during the draft you will receive a $20 regular season FAAB bonus. If you have one time limit delay during the draft you will receive a $10 regular season FAAB bonus. If you have two or more time limit delays you will not be eligible for this bonus.

*Benchwarmer Bonus: If by, date designated by the commish, you have filled your roster with 20 or more players, then you will receive an extra $50 in your regular season FAAB bank account.

*Startling Lineup Bonus: If by, date designated by the commish, you have every position of your lineup filled with a player, you will receive a $25 bonus into your regular season FAAB bank account. If any spot is left empty, offense/kicker/defense, than you will not receive the bonus.

*Rivalry Week: One week during the season will be designated a rivalry week. If you defeat your opponent during rivalry week you will take $20 from their regular season FAAB account. If the loser doesn't have the cash, the loser will be docked the following season. The winner will get their reward now though.

O. New managers taking over an existing team will assume all commitments and prior obligations that the previous manager had.

P. Playoffs. Championship bracket will consist of regular season standings teams One thru Eight. The only exception is that division winners are guaranteed a championship playoff berth. Regardless of how terrible a division might end up being, its winner will represent it in the championship bracket. Consolation bracket will consist of teams Nine thru Sixteen, minus any potential division winners.

Q. The winner of the Consolation playoff bracket will be awarded the prize of #1 Overall Draft pick. This prize is an additional draft pick. You will have the first overall pick PLUS your regularly slotted draft pick based on end of regular season standings.

R. Divisions. There are four divisions and four teams per division. Divisions for the followimg year are determined based on a team's total points scored for the previous regular season. Top four point scoring teams are given a designation of #1 and placed at the top of each division. The next four are given the designation of #2 and placed in each of the four divisions, and so on.

S. Schedules. The schedules are custom made by the commish to optimize and emphasize our division format. Schedules follow a similar format each year. You will face everyone in your division twice, you will face everyone in a select division once, you will face the two teams with the same preseason divisional placement seeding number you haven't yet faced once, and finally you will face a rivalry week opponent. Rivalry week oppoment will be a team that is not in your division. Teams can make a request for a specific rivalry week opponent in the thread. This adds up to a 13 week regular season. This is the baseline for the schedule every season. The only variance is the weeks of occurance. Weeks with no bye week NFL teams are typically going to be reserved for divisional matchups.

T. These rules are subject to review and revision after the season is over and prior to the start of drafting at the discretion of the league and the commissioner.

FAAB BENCHWARMER AUCTION
-info coming-

 

[Krankor]

If a mod could pin this thread and unpin the 2019 thread that would be great.

 

[Krankor]

Anyone from the board have interest in the open teams before I go find some ringers elsewhere?

 

[Kageho]

Any chance I could trade my QBs for the 1st team's QBs? Please? No? Aw...

More seriously, thanks Krank for keeping the league alive.

 

[Sex Machine Gun]

Looks like I checked this just in time. I knew the draft had to be coming up, didn't know if you were giving up on the season or what because I know I'm not optimistic for a normal year.

 

[Cartman]

Oh man, draft starts tomorrow!

It looks like the league hasn't been re-activated on Yahoo yet?

 

[Krankor]

Draft isn't starting tomorrow because we have 2 openings still. We'll shoot for August 3rd.

 

[Cartman]

I'm guessing fantasy sports interest isn't very high right now, this sucks.

 

[HarleyQuinn]

I think part of it is the shortened schedules and the general uncertainty of whether the NFL will even play and if so, will it be a full season or end up being shortened in some manner, etc.

 

[Sex Machine Gun]

I haven't done ANY research this year on players, rookies, nothing. Not even a mock draft. I still kind of listen to my regular podcasts as background noise but that's it. I told the people in my home league that I run that I don't expect there to be football. Trying to prepare feels pointless, but I'm finally starting to look up rankings tonight.

 

[909]

There is going to be a full season, it was just confirmed.

 

[Brooklyn Zoo]

I’m in if open team A is still available

 

[Krankor]

Sure thing, it's yours BZ.

 

[Kageho]

I completely forgot about this. My bad. Trying to get my move finalized and a home for my family has been weighing me down.

 

[Krankor]

@Brooklyn Zoo Hey send me a pm with your yahoo email that you want me to send the team transfer over to.

 

[Krankor]

Small housekeeping post.

#1. I'm probably going to increase the IL spots for this season to 5 to help with potential covid related issues. We'll drop back down to 3 next season. I'm not sure how yahoo will deal with it. So far I've seen Hockenson with a positive test and yahoo simply listed him as NA. NA players can't be added to an injured list. Hopefully they employ the COVID tag that they are using in baseball which allows the player to be placed on an injured list.

#2. The yahoo player pool is going to get updated sometime Satuday to reflect available draftable players.

#3. Draft starts Monday. 12 hour time limits. 3 time limit delays and you're bumped to 6 hour limits for the remainder of the draft. We still have one open team. If it isn't filled by the start of the draft, it will just be auto-drafted best available players. If you're not going to be around for an extended period of time, let me know and I can post your picks for you or just auto-draft.

#4. The chance of this season actually being completed seems low. In the event a full season doesn't happen, we'll do what we are doing for the baseball league. We'll keep a vast majority of your roster, instead of the usual 6 keepers, have a small 2021 draft to replace your bench players. Draft order will simply be the finishing order of the regular season standings. Basically, if the season gets cancelled, just look as 2020 as a setup for 2021. Hopefully we get a complete season and this scenario isn't needed.

 

[Krankor]

Draft kicksoff Monday when Cartman makes the first pick. After he picks, 12 hour time limits go into effect.

 

[Sex Machine Gun]

LET'S GO~

The idea a draft is happening is the most normal I've felt in months.

 

[Krankor]

@Cartman

Don't miss the first pick bro!

 

[Hawk 34]

Don’t be a thrasher!

 

[Krankor]

Whelp, once it hits Midnight Eastern, Cartman will be over the customary 24 hrs the first pick gets and St Gabe will be on the clock for 12 hours.

 

[Brooklyn Zoo]

ok ok, we can still pick this up

 

[HarleyQuinn]

... I literally send Krankor a PM saying to just skip me as I'm working Monday night and not even 1 god damn pick is made when I get home at 11:30 PM?!?

 

[Hawk 34]

We didn’t push the draft back far enough apparently!

 

[SteakGrowsOnDmitri]

Looks like Gabe is on the clock. He sent me his pick:

Joe Burrow - QB

 

[MFer]

More red flags than a communist parade, but I'm going for the high-ceiling approach here.

Odell Beckham Jr., WR

 

[Cartman]

Um, ok i'm out. Have fun guys.

 

[StGabe]

Um, ok i'm out. Have fun guys.

Cool.

 

[Krankor]

Two weeks ago all gung ho, now quitting.
God damn it what the fuck.

 

[Krankor]

EDIT. No longer valid now that we are at 14 teams.

Linx is on the clock.
