Live draft league. Spring revival. Topic

I’d be game to go with 2 as well.

I saw this thanks to Tom’s post in one of my leagues. I’m only in one other league right now but posted it there. Hope we can drum up a few more.

Awesome. Tom is diesel on this league’s heart. I will sitemail the other committed owners to see where they are at on 2 teams.

Well if you can get it off the ground, I'd be in. Haven't seen any football league full though in the last few years it seems. The sim needs an update big time.

If you would like some interesting reading about this type of league go to the Football *Theme Leagues* - change *Last Month* to *All* - and then scroll down to *N D L Owners / QB log*. It will show you the league history of all the owners, and it shows the records of all of the QB's that were used. (you will have to scroll right at the bottom of the page to see the complete results.)

Thanks grayfoxx for sharing that. A lot to go through there! I simply just started brainstorming one day on a league like this. There goes my brilliant idea! Haha.

I was not aware how far back it went and all that participated. I was tickled at the commentary and those I’ve known from other open, theme and progressive leagues. Cool to see that. We could reach out to them and see if they would like to reenergize this type of league.

FWIW- establishing more standardized position roster requirements (in the live draft) and the 10 yr bubble protection on OL, DL and ST could make this iteration a little different. Would you like to join this one?

Are players subject to years, or no. could there be a '07 Brady and an '18 Brady?
Are K an P bubbled and can they be taken in earlier rounds or only in last 4 rounds?
Are the last 4 picks unique and can only be on 1 team or shared by all?
Does a player that switches position in their career like Rich Caster bubble both positions?

I'll do a team. Sounds a lot like a league we did many years ago. When WIS was still talking about upgrade.

Hi kaniac,

So stoked you are in the mix!

- 1 Brady in the whole league. No one else gets him. The owner who selects him—picks whatever year they want and does not need to disclose the year when posting that pick.

- no Kicker or punter picks in the live draft. You select them post draft with the remaining cash.

- first 12 roster spots are unique for every team in the live draft. Please see the live draft roster requirements per position. This will be updated after each pick. We'll have a rosters page separate from the draft page to show what everyone has per the position requirements—to easily track going forward round-by-round. This also adds to the draft strategy seeing what everyone has left in mid-to-later rounds. After the live draft is complete, the rest of the roster is filled privately with whomever is undrafted to fill the remaining spots and stay under the 75 mil cap.

- the bubble is for OL, DL and ST. The whole unit. If an individual player was apart of that, it does not nullify the unit. But if Rich Caster is picked as TE or WR, he is off the board individually as a position player.

Please follow up if I missed something, or anything is unclear.
