I don't think there's a single player worth keeping on that team

Rivers, SJax & Freddie (or Stevie).

Adequate keepers. Nothing special, seen worse tho. If you don't want a challenge we're probably better off finding someone else.

Has been $25 in the past, I'd like to go to $40-50 this year. We'd have to vote on it tho.

You're #1 on the list as far as I'm concerned. the only person that could auto-trump you for the spot is a DAT member in baseball or Hoops that isn't in the league. We'll try to have it sorted out by tomorrow so we can move forward w/ our preseason.

Me too.

And I say we give other DAT members until this afternoon to speak up. Of not, dro is in.

Also, is there a way to go back to having an auction draft?

I'm comfortable going to $50, but would never want to go any higher. We can vote once we settle on a 12.

5PM it is.

We could settle on a standard 2012 auction price to use for your keepers, & the 1st 3 rounds of auction would be nominating your keepers.

If we did auction values, shouldn't we use last years values? Say like getting Gronk or Jimmy Graham. Got them as steals last year and would have to pay top dollar o keep them this year

Yeah, I don't think there would be an easy way to do this with yahoo. And picks were traded last season also, so I don't think thy works for auctions

We could use last years yahoo auction value as the standard.

frick, forgot about traded picks. I still say we put t up for a vote. Auction is so much better IMO fwiw piihb

We'll find a way to make it work if everyone agrees. However this big a change this late would take 100% agreement IMO

Will definitely change my keeper strategy.

Well if just one person that traded a pick/player objected that would enough to kill it. Not sure how many have been traded tho, know for sure you traded JC, right?

ETA: I could see jewT objecting. Guess he'd have to give you some compensation for JC. Like x amount of auction dollars.
