I'm not saying we blow it up, but I think everyone agrees that this league pretty much is everyone's worst by far. Something needs to change.

Can we drop it to 1 keep with option of a 2nd but you lose a 1st round pick?
I'm sure I can find someone I can keep but not sure on two...

I don't think blowing it up is necessary but I agree with changes being necessary. I think we have at least 8-10 guys coming back and it would be super easy to fill the last few spots.

We could always do as someone else recommended and not force you to keep 3 guys. You could get the best of the scraps if you don't which would help someone like tduecen this year.

I like the making keepers optional rule. We use it in one of my other leagues and it works well.


Yeah, in my league that has been going strong for 10 years we do 2 keepers and have them optional, with the first keeper counting as the 1st rnd pick if you keep one, and the second keeper counting as the 2nd rnd pick.

We don't even have keeper limits in that league and it's never really been an issue since keepers are optional and count as your early picks. It gives people who have great keepers a decent leg up but not game breaking and people who need to blow their team up and start over still have a decent chance.

IMO, you need some sort of ability for owners that screw up their team to recover semi-quickly or the league will turn into haves vs have nots and dwindle away after a couple years. At least that's been my experience over the years.

Yeah Dan has a good team I think.

Hull can take over for him.

I also agree that 3 keepers is 1 too many. I also don't like the fact that there are no penalties associated with keeping a keeper.

We could always go back to not having keepers and doing a redraft every year. That's the easiest and simplest way to do it.

I'm down for switching to a max of 2 keepers with loss of 1st and/or 2nd round draft picks to keep.

This is definitely the answer to add more parity to the league...

Yah.

On a side note, I think that's everyone but Whitie and TH responded (unless we want to track them down, but neither were changing their lineups half the time and TH didn't show for the draft), so we could probably decide what we want to do and try to find a couple new owners.

As of now we have 3 open spots. Anyone have anyone they want to recruit or should we start a thread looking for owners?

We should probably ask in the ATL Thread first as long as that doesn't mean bringing in any crazies like crimsonian. I could also post in the baseball league in case any of those folks aren't in the football league. Lastly, we could just start a thread here as a last resort saying that we have a few open spots. Shouldn't be an issue filling the holes though.
