only use rookies league Topic

I want to gauge the interest of an all-rookie league. I'll create the league if a decent amount of people want to give this a shot. Leave a post if you're interested.

SALARY CAP: $ 70 million

RULES:
- Only use rookies from 1967-2009.

- You MUST use the rookie season of every player on your roster. NOT the first season a player appears on WiS, but the actual player's rookie season.

- For OL, use the offensive line that an AP Offensive ROY played behind. (i.e. '89 Barry Sanders = '89 Lions OL) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Football_League_Rookie_of_the_Year_Award

- For Defense, use the defense that an AP Defensive ROY played with. (i.e. '81 L.T. = '81 NYG Defense) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Football_League_Rookie_of_the_Year_Award

- For ST use the special teams of either your kicker or punter (i.e. '93 Jason Elam = '93 Broncos ST)

How do you use a players actual 1st season if WIS doesnt have him in the system??
6/28/2010 3:38 PM
his 1st season would have to be in the system to use him. If he didn't play as a rookie than you don't use him
