I don’t see it happening, but thinking about it, if additional players did join we would have to trim the rosters and probably therefore cut it to one keeper. But yea, I don’t see 2 additional players coming out of nowhere.
The Sunday seems a decent option to me.
Set the draft to the 26th. Time is negotiable (as is the date if it clearly can't work for people, but it will be around that date).
Keeper deadline 1 week before (19th). Keepers to be submitted to me on the Yahoo site or by PM.
Draft order will be randomly selected and announced once I have confirmation that all 10 teams are returning. Can't see there being any who drop out really, think we weeded out all the ones who weren't committed.
Regardless of draft position, I'll almost certainly keep Keenan Allen (thanks Baz) for a 4th
I'd have an absolute belter of a keeper if I wasn't a fucking idiot last season.
I need to look at my team but I'll probably keep Kamara.
Jesus, just checked that. I've been there, multiple times. I dropped both David Johnson and Freeman just before they broke out and missed out on keeping them for next to nothing (although at least with Johnson, I didn't draft him, so at least two of us made that same mistake. Freeman.... yea.... awful).
I’m really pleased with my decision to trade Davante Adams for Jarvis Landry
Sunday 26th should be fine for me too. Doing well with a random order, considering I’d been preparing to draft from 10 in my head.

I make that just Ian, Mert and Baz we haven’t heard from?
Mert hasn't been on the forum for around 7 months, so if we don't hear from him soonish, we may need to replace him.
I don't have any concerns about Ian renewing, so with 9/10 confirmed, I run the randomizer for draft position. I always like to do that early to allow for mock drafts and more informed keeper decisions (particularly for those considering round 1-2 keepers).
Here is the draft order for 2018:
1) Rich (AKA Fay's Fall Guys)
2) Baz
3) Me
4) Mahow
5) Ian
6) Mert (Or replacement)
7) Dan
8) Pleb
9) Gray Fox
10) Sam
Remember it's a snake draft, so the order is reversed for round 2.
Edit- Also made the decision that increasing to 12 would fuck everything up too much, so we'll stick at 10, replacing Mert if necessary.
Yeah, I'd imagine Mert will need to be replaced. Who's doing Cry Me A Rivers?
I’ll stick with Sam (same guy as last year) unless we get more TTH interest. Mert will be the first to be replaced though.
Get @bruhnaldo back involved.
I'm a twit
After last year? Doubtful.
There was that one other guy who wanted to play though. Forget who it was.
@Limoutsonik I believe.
That’s the one. I’m happy to give him two keepers from the roster he takes over as well.
I was about to come in and discuss strategy for picking from 9th in my work league. We wont have keepers in that one though and it's standard scoring so I don't see why not.
I reckon my keeper(s) will be pretty obvious.
Is your work league still batshit crazy? I imagine the strategy of drafting 9th and then 12th varies greatly from the strategy of drafting 9th and then 37th.
So now the only thing to worry about is Pleb style curve balls, like someone drafting Ted Ginn at 6.
Was this you @Ian?
No I'm only this league and one with my brother-in-law.
Unless I've missed something there.
Who can’t I keep?
I'm a twit
Player
Tom Brady (NE - QB) Round 1, Pick 2 2 44
Adam Thielen (Min - WR) Round 11, Pick 2 73 25
Zay Jones (Buf - WR) Q Round 6, Pick 9 294 243
Theo Riddick (Det - RB) Round 12, Pick 9 152 112
Rob Gronkowski (NE - TE) Round 2, Pick 9 62 21
Jerick McKinnon (SF - RB) Round 18, Pick 9 106 27
Jeremy Maclin (Bal - WR) NA Round 9, Pick 8 246 284
Corey Davis (Ten - WR) Round 9, Pick 2 333 69
Matt Ryan (Atl - QB) Round 5, Pick 2 16 106
Odell Beckham Jr. (NYG - WR) Q Round 1, Pick 5 280 8
Stephen Gostkowski (NE - K) Round 7, Pick 2 45 160
Matt Bryant (Atl - K) Round 13, Pick 2 56 173
Los Angeles (LAR - DEF) Round 16, Pick 9 46 139
Seattle (Sea - DEF) Round 8, Pick 9 86 17
Those are your options Baz, along with round cost (ignore the other numbers after the round).
Also note that picking 2 keepers from the same round costs you a round earlier, so you won't be able to keep both Brady and Beckham (but you could keep either 1 of them in the 1st round if you wanted to).

Couple of minor scoring changes:
0.5 PPR added.
Fumbles were somehow set at -2 for lost but nothing if the ball wasn't lost, which I've never been a fan of. Changed to -1 for the fumble and -1 again for losing it.
Also I didn't realise chat about our league was happening, sorry. I was waiting for a new thread and all the stuff you guys have been talking about basically since the Super Bowl is just a level of fantasy football interest I don't have so that's why I missed it.
What do I need to do/say/confirm?
I accidentally renewed everyone, so people didn't need to confirm, other than on here. I assumed you'd be back though, Mert is the only question mark.
Keeper deadline is on the 19th (draft order is above). Select your 2 keepers via Yahoo or via this thread/PM to me. That's all for now.
Also note it's a 0.5 PPR now.
Ohhh, sorry. Maybe? I definitely had him so I guess it would have been pretty early. Probably me.
I guess I'll wait a couple of weeks to confirm my keepers.
My 2 keepers probably pick themselves, albeit I could easily live without the 2nd one. Only one really solid option, and he was drafted by Baz.
I'm good aren't I.
I honestly don't know who to keep. Not wasting second overall pick on Brady or ODB.
I'm a twit
Neither would I, but two of those names stand out to me as fairly big bargains.
Hopkins for a fourth and Kamara for a 16th right?
Fucking tasty.
Is there going to be anymore on this McCoy story? If not, Ivory can fuck off when free agency open again in my league.
He'll no doubt get suspended regardless of whether he's actually charged or not, but you've got to imagine the Bills get someone in to play - Orleans Darkwa is still out there, as is Eddie Lacy if he's still playing, Thomas Rawls & Christine Michael are probably going to get cut (), and I'd put them as a potential trade candidate for Ameer Abdullah, Jeremy Hill or one of the young guys in Oakland.
Obviously that's a list that hardly inspires confidence but I'd be interested in Abdullah at least, and Darkwa would probably do to split with Ivory if it came to it.
Zeke got suspended without the police charging him with it, but this one is slightly different. If you believe what the woman has said, Shady hired someone to beat her up and rob her. I don't expect this to be settled until next season to be fair.
I had Abdullah but I traded him for Devante Adams... can't say I regret it even if he becomes a featured back in Buffalo.
If I were to cut Ivory on Tuesday I'd probably be looking at adding Booker or Carson, both of which are currently being tipped as starters, unless they are waiver claimed by the Freeman/Penny owners.
Pickup Kenneth Dixon.
It's finally going to be his year.
I actually drafted Dixon in this league, but much like Kevin White, I couldn't hold him when I got multiple injuries.
He's 3rd on the depth chart though...
There's no such thing as a depth chart at this stage but that probably is right.
Collins deserves to have the first crack at being the lead back and Buck Allen is our receiving type guy.
If Collins gets injured though, it would be Dixon taking the lead as Buck can't do that role.
I look forward to someone taking Dixon early just to annoy Mahow.
Sorry guys,i did say i was interested but unfortunately i cannot commit plus i don't know anything about the keeper format so i would suck immensely. Thank you for thinking of me though.
Well, that sucks.
Any other ideas for a replacement anyone?
