Any chance we can expand the bench by a couple slots?

I definitely don't want to do that this season because with the expansion 28 more roster spots overall will be gobbled off the wire. Let's talk about how things went at the end of the season.
 
Alright, folks. A few updates:

#1. The league has expanded to 14 teams. I know @SixPACK wasn't as thrilled with the decision, but @PIP was in the original league over a decade ago, and he's a former champion I believe.

I won the 1st 2 years of the RCF league....

The game and names have changed a bit and I’m now old as fuck, but let’s do this !!!

I’m not taking Peyton Manning or Larry Johnson this year...Believe that... Calvin Johnson is my sleeper top pick as a rookie !!
 
Apologies for the delay, personal stuff came up which prevented me from moving the league forward. We have our last spot in the 14 team league filled: @King Stannis is an active member, a big NFL fan, and seemed to be a key fixture in that other RCF League. He will be a great addition to this one.

With the increase to 14 teams, planning out a strategy for the whole season will have a new challenge. However, many stars who were keepers since the first season will now open up. They have hit their "three year keeper limit".

I would like to hold the "RBF Draft Lottery" on Friday. This will give you plenty of time to think about keepers and their relative value to the pick.

The keeper section will close August 31st, one day after the last preseason game. If you could give me your PM with the keepers before that, it can still be changed but will be a great courtesy to me as I set up the draft. Returning teams have two keepers at the round they were selected last year. If the player is a keeper for the second year, the round goes up a year. The third year as a keeper also goes up one more round, but that is the last year to be unavailable in the draft. Important: If you use your first round value player as your keeper, you don't get a second keeper.

New teams: Look forward to a set of keepers next season.

I have the draft penciled in for Sunday, September 2nd in the evening. 6pm for PST and 9pm for EST. Please let us know if it needs to be changed, but we have done Sunday nights for a long time.

Horseshit. I had to rub marshmallow creme on my nipples to get in. Stannis gets in by default.

Keys, can you inform me the status of my keepers? Not sure if I still have eligibility on Baldwin or that KC WR I traded for last year.
 
Here's what I've got for keeper status:

EDIT: Last Year's Keepers and Last Year's Value

Me: Gurley (x), Jimmy Graham (14)
6pk: Bell (1), Hill (14)
Torn: NONE
Hurl: OBJ (x), Michael Thomas (8)
Mo: Jordan Howard (14), Nelson (13)
Surge: D. Johnson (10), Montgomery (14)
X: Baldwin (11), Crowell (7)
Moz: J.Jones (1), Brady (8)
CCF: Adams (14), Kelley (13)
Five: Pryor (14), Parker (9)
Soda: Evans (x), Ajayi (11)
Jack: Gordon (5), Newton (8)


OBJ, Gurley, and Mike Evans have been keepers since this started. They cannot be kept.

Jordy Nelson, Melvin Gordon, David Johnson, Doug Baldwin, and Cam Newton all are in their final year as a keeper, if they are retained.

@Man Called X Tyreek Hill was kept for the first time last year and so he can be kept but will cost you the 13th pick now.

If others have a specific question about their keeper, it might be easier to PM me. I have a written record from last two years.
 
Can you check on mine as well whenever you've got the time?

Everyone should look at their rosters, set keepers on Yahoo, then PM me who you selected on Yahoo. If you have questions, they will be addressed in the PM. School started for me. I won't be holding hands with info readily available to you on the Yahoo League page, but you have over two weeks to figure out how to view the keepers and select them. Im happy to answer questions after you check out your own roster.

The website says it's for Sunday at 9pm EST. I know last year there was some mixup with the time, so I want to make sure.

Go with that for now, there's no way I get near the league commish settings for the next 48 hours. This year, don't blame me. The settings are on the website and I don't run Yahoo. Read Yahoo's website for information on the league. I'm stretched thin the first few weeks of school.
 
Found out I'm not free for Sunday. Can we do a different night?

I plan on doing the RBF Lottery Extravaganza this Wednesday night. I can't believe I promised I'd do it the same time as the second preseason game. I'm a man with his priorities in check!

For the draft, I will try to reschedule for Monday evening. If people can't do Monday night, let me know in the next 48 hours. I want to lock this down.
 
Thanks, Keys for responding so quickly!

Labor Day night is much better for me.
 
I cannot do Labor Day Night but am free pretty much any other night.
 
Nobody wants to miss Hard Knocks. I'm putting the Thursday of August 30th out there. If somebody can't do that one I'll have to start considering a draft before that day.
