If we go that route, I'll volunteer to keep an updated google doc for the league.

All keeper leagues I've been in have some type of keeper penalties and a limit to the seasons a keeper can be kept.

I can definitely see how the current rules would make it difficult for some one to rebound from a bad draft.

Yup.

But 31 and Swamp apparently don't care if we retain the same owners from year to year so it doesn't matter. Curious to see what this league looks like in 2 years.

If we do penalties, they have to be implemented now.

Only one new owner this year. This is a league based on an internet message board, there is bound to be year to year turn over. I expect that.

I think that if we want to implement keeper penalties aside from a time period, the best option would be to nuke the league.

I think the time period is the only way to go in our situation.

Yeah let's just do the 3 years and call it even.

And remember its 3 consectutive year. If a guy goes to the draft the counter resets.

Also, if you have a player for any period at all during 1 season and keep him going forward, that counts as 1 year.

All sounds good to me.

It'll get fun in a couple years when we have to decide if we want to trade 1 year of a stud for 3 years for a lesser type player.

After this season things will be very interesting no doubt. This draft will be weak but the next 2 should be much more loaded.

.5 ppr, 4 pt td passes
I have the all injured team.

QB Tony Romo
RB LeSean McCoy
RB Ryan Mathews (yeah, both will be kept by me this year in our league)
WR Victor Cruz
WR Miles Austin
TE Rob Gronkowski
Flex Trent Richardson

Bench:

Kenny Britt
Isaac Redmon
Torrey Smith
Big Ben
David Wilson

Not happy about my WR, but it is what it is. Waited until the 5th round to draft my first WR.
