I have abandoned round six this year as we had no draft draft choices made and in a ten team league 5 rounds is enough for everyone to get some quality.

Your boards users and their team names are as follows
Boards Name Team name
Realt Dearg Sec Terenure Red Stars
doogs27 DaVegas Crew
Tristram Pillow Fighters
UnitedIrishman Fightin' Irish
The baby bull elephant Team Mannion
Stev88 Clowney College
Brinty Balreask Cowboys
Limpar North London Gunners
gerryfed Vancouver Grizzlies
Billr67 Steel City Celtic


Sorry for the non communication recently and delay in responding on this. Haven't had the greatest start to 2018 and fantasy has been at the back of my thinking.

Hopefully a few trades might be in the offing with the updated draft running order available to you all. I'm hopeful we'll have all ten players returning for the 2018 season. If we have anyone dropping out I have a request already from a member in our Boards dynasty league to join and he'll be given first option on any available teams.

Gerry you may now begin your horse trading to get some picks, and Limpar might have a few deals to be done too as he only has a pick in round five as things stand.

PS i am open to correction if anyone thinks there's been an error. I'll never proclaim to be 100% reliable.

gerryfed

Much appreciated! Can only imagine the effort of tracking all those picks :O

Open to trading players/picks for different, new, shiny players/picks! Maybe everyone can update their trading block if they get a chance and are interested in dealing!

Cheers again!

You're the second on the list of we have any drop outs for next season.

brinty

Ok folks, checking to see who's awake and involved in the league

We noticed there were a number off issues during the season so lets try and iron them out

1) League schedule
There was confusion re the playoffs so I'd propose we do a 12 game regular season and two week playoffs (semi's and final). That means the meaningless week 17 fixtures shouldn't affect anyone

2) Veto trade limit.
We're in a 10 team league so when we remove the trade partners that's 8 players. I would suggest at a minimum that we move the veto limit to 4 players from the existing 3 required. That's 50% of players. I would favour moving the limit to 5 and there can be no doubt if a trade is vetoed.

3) Move to decimal play
The fact that players are missing out due to the 10 yards/25 yards rules on vital scores a couple of players have suggested a move to decimalisation (i.e. 0.1 point per yard rushing/receiving and 0.04 points throwing)

4) Free agents in the draft
Has been suggested we consider allowing people to draft free agents as well as rookies. Now i'm not 100% sure how this would go down with people and how we would administer it so I'm open to hearing opinions. I think we would need to clear your rosters of players you don't want prior to the draft possibly in line with the number of draft picks you have in the year. This would spice up the draft as some interesting players could drop into the draft pool.

If people have any other suggestions lets hear them.

I would suggest we get ideas out on the table and then when we're closer to the season we can make a decision on what we'll change and what we'll disregard.

Realt Dearg Sec

Would that involve everyone having to drop a compulsory number off the bottom of their roster before the draft? Because otherwise people would just take the number of picks they intend using and not drop any more, leading to a bit of conservatism. If you had to drop, say, four players, or whatever, that might be different. Not sure how it would be policed (what is the deadline for dropping players and how do you make sure nobody picks them up before the draft period begins or whatever?)

Also, I realise a couple of people have messaged me looking to trade the first pick, I've been ridiculously pressured with a job interview thing and various work issues so, like so often, havent given it my time as I would like to. I'll get back to ye on all that (and if I get the job I'll be in an awfully good mood when it comes to negotiating)

gerryfed

1) Yeah I'd be open to 14 weeks plus 1 week semi and 1 week final... or 12 weeks plus 2 week semi and 2 week final
2) Veto trade limit should definitely be a majority. I'd probably let all 10 people vote and a minimum of 6 needed to veto a deal. I'm sure there's some guidelines online from other leagues and reliable websites
3) Cool with the move to decimal
4) I think it would be good to include all current free agents in draft. Then, once that draft is completed, people have to release X amount of players by X date before their newly draft players are added... then the newly released players will then be up for grabs in that first waiver wire auction of the pre season (like last year)

Me and Brinty had already discussed some of the above, but I'll try throw out some potential new ideas/changes as they come to me in here! And yeah, it'd be good to know early who is still participating next year etc

Doogs27

Happy with all points above. Looking forward to next season.

gerryfed

Anyone alive this off season and interested in talking trades or is everyone gone into hibernation? Free agency only around the corner... then the combine... followed by the real draft... then our rookie draft... pre season... bobs your uncle, September again

Haha the hypocrisy of that today Stev

I'm open for business lads... anyone up for negotiations?! Free agency might get the juices flowing. Loving the ARob to Packers rumours today!

ESPN site back up and running... league just needs reactivating

Looking to pick up extra picks if anyones interested in parting! Or just trades in general!

Realt Dearg Sec

Hey folks I know I've had a rake of offers of trades for my no.1 pick over the last while and I haven't been replying because at any given time it always feels like it'll be later when I have a chance to sit down and think about the offer and weigh it up and all that. And in a sense it's been like that all year with any trade with the result that my team went from being in a final one year to dead last the following. And basically I'm not sure if my circumstances are going to change on that front with work in the near future. So with that said, and given I probably won't be the most active player in the league, it might be best if I stepped aside and let someone else step in before the draft takes place so they can start getting the team into shape and so on. I don't know, though, if there is anyone else looking to get into the league at the moment. If there is nobody to replace me I won't leave as I am happy to keep being involved and stuff, I just think someone else might be able to be fully active in it.

brinty

Morning all,

I have reactivated the league this morning so you should be able to see your rosters. I will put up the draft running order later today and we should be able to start some trading and draft strategies.

Draft will not be until July/August after OTA's for all teams so rosters should be close to the final 53 man limit for all 32 teams.

I'll reach out to Realt separately and see if he's continuing but i have a replacement GM lined up if Realt isn't able to play.

This trade makes little sense to me, but hopefully it gives the league a kick in the arse Forza Del Boy!!

brinty

HI Folks,
I have managed to get a new GM to replace Realt. I emailed Realt last week and no response so if by the end of today there's no update from him we'll transfer his team.
Please all welcome along Mr_Man2121 who has been trying to get into a dynasty league for a while now.


Please all note that i have already provided Mr_Man2121 with information on his team and draft picks. I have already concluded a trade with him which he was happy to accept. I'll disclose this trade once ownership has transferred.

Welcome along to the league Mr_Man2121

This is more shady then LeSean McCoy! You can't be doing deals with a new owner, that nobody knows, for a team he doesn't even own yet.

When Doogs/Steve came on board, it was announced and every had their chance to propose deals to them etc.

As i said to you privately and will say it to all members here I've no problem if its voted down and I'll accept the leagues decision

Mr_Man2121

Hi lads, I also have no problem with it being voted down. Didn't think about the fact that it was shady at the time.
