KEEPER RULES
- A DRAFTED PLAYER MIGHT BE KEPT FOR THE NEXT SEASON BY SACRIFICING 1 DRAFT POSITION FROM HIS ORIGINAL DRAFT. MEANING, IF YOU DRAFTED CERTAIN PLAYER ON THE 3RD, YOU WILL SACRIFICE THE 2ND PICK NEXT SEASON. YOU CANT KEEP A PLAYER THAT WILL FORCE YOU GO GIVE UP A 1ST ROUND. ONLY CAN KEEP PLAYERS WHO YOU HAVE TO SACRIFICE THE 2ND ROUND AND UP.
- A PLAYER DOES NOT HAVE HAVE TO BE KEPT ALL SEASON, THAT PREVIOUS RULE APPLIES TO ALL DRAFTED PLAYERS. REGARDLESS IF THE PLAYER WAS PICKED UP FROM WAIVER WIRE, IF HE WAS DRAFTED IN THE BEGINNING OF THE SEASON THEN HE WILL COST 1 DRAFT PICK FROM HIS DRAFT POSITION.
- NON DRAFTED FREE AGENT PLAYERS WILL NOW BE ELIGIBLE FOR KEEPER STATUS. ANY NON DRAFTED FREE AGENT CAN BE KEPT BUT PLAYER WILL SACRIFICE ADP BASED ON ESPN. IF THE ADP HAS THEM GOING ON THE 1ST ROUND, YOU MAY NOT KEEP THAT PLAYER.
- FREE AGENT KEEPER DEADLINE IS AT THE END OF REGULAR SEASON, SAME TIME ELIMINATED TEAMS ARE LOCKED IN. NON ELIMINATED TEAMS MAY AQUIRE PLAYERS IN THE WAIVER WIRE BUT ANY PLAYER AQUIRE AFTER REGULAR SEASON MAY NOT BE A KEEPER.
- KEEPER MUST BE SUBMITTED 1 MONTH BEFORE DRAFT, SOMEWHERE IN LATE JULY. DATE OF DRAFT TO BE CONFIRMED.
- IF FOR ANY REASON YOUR KEEPER IS INJURED DURING PRE SEASON, YOU MAY OPT OUT FROM KEEPING HIM BUT IT HAS TO BE BEFORE DRAFT. IF YOU DRAFT AND HE GETS INJURED, TOUGH LUCK. THATS WHY WE PUSH FOR DRAFT BY THE 3RD WEEK OF PRESEASON. IF YOU OPT OUT FROM KEEPING AN INJURED PLAYER, YOU MAY NOT SWITCH FOR ANOTHER NON INJURED PLAYER. SIMPLY, YOU HAVE NO KEEPER.
- PLAYERS CAN ONLY BE KEPT 2 YEARS MAX, 1 YEAR BEING THE DRAFTED YEAR AND 1 YEAR AFTER THAT. HOWEVER, A 3RD YEAR OPTION CAN BE EXTENDED BUT FOR A PRIZE OF $20. THE KEEPER RULES WOULD STILL APPLY OF SACRIFICING DRAFT POSITION PLUS A $20 FEE THAT WILL GO INTO PRIZE MONEY.
THIS RULES WILL APPLY STARTING 2023 DRAFT, SO FOR NOW ALL OF YALL CAN ONLY KEEP DRAFTED PLAYERS FROM LAST SEASON THAT WERE DRAFTED AND KEPT.
