I wish I could find one of the old checks he sent to pay for the
league. I don't think some ever got deposited. I will have to
check in my junk drawer in the way back. JJ always paid old
school check by mail.

hmmm.. Just paid for the year. Poking around I found this and
I am going to activate it.
"TRADING FUTURE DRAFT PICKS
Commissioners now have the option to allow team owners to trade
future draft picks up to three years
in advance. For Dynasty and Keeper Leagues, this can add a new
strategic element that makes things
awfully interesting at the trade deadline - do you want to build
a squad for the future or win now?
Commissioners can go to the Transaction Settings Commissioner
Tool to
activate this new option."

Maybe allow trades later in the season also? Later than the
trade deadline the NFL imposes. It is what makes the trade
deadline more interesting in baseball than the NFL.

The league is paid for. $160/15=$10.67 each. Of course the
champ is the only one who doesn't have to pay (Downward Legion).
You can pay via paypal again and [s]JJ can send his obligatory
check in the mail so I can put it in my bag for a couple years
before I cash it.[/s]
I deleted the Flex position for the draft so we don't have the
auto drafter over-drafting positions. I will put it back on the
roster after the draft. The draft is the same day same time as
last year. Sunday Night before Labor Day, September 2, at 8:00
pm Eastern. As always I suggest you make sure the draft room is
working from the computer you plan on drafting from before this
date and time.
I will get the draft order set up sometime this week hopefully.
I will get the schedules set sometime this month.
I reset the keepers deadline to 08/26/18. Don't forget to do
this.
If you are not playing I need to know ASAP so we can find
replacements.

I am interested. How late should we make the deadline?

Right now it is 11/14. That is 10 weeks into our 14 week
regular season. We can't have it moved too much past that or we
would have roster dumps that could affect the playoffs.

I think 11/14 sounds fine. I thought in years past we tied it
to the NFL trade deadline which was around the beginning of
October.

The only problem with trading future picks is if someone were to
trade their future picks away and then leave, whomever picks up
that team would be in a hole starting out.

That is why all the trades have to be approved to avoid lopsided
deals. We have always had future picks included with trades.
That is nothing new. Being able to have the CBS site track them
and include them in offers for players is. Now when someone
puts players on the block you can include the picks in when you
make the trade offers for those players.

When do we set our keepers? I goofed it last time and I want to
be sure I am good this time. Can we set them now and edit them
before the deadline?
