  • The league will use a FAAB blind bid style system with each team beginning the year with $100.  Players will lock at the start of their NFL teams weekly game and be released to the free agency pool on the following Wednesday morning per NFL.com Fantasy rules.  During the lock period you may bid on a player using any of your available FAAB funds in an attempt to acquire the player for your team. The manager with the highest blind bid is awarded the player after the lock period.  Any players who are not bid on will become free agents and be on a first come first serve basis.  If a rostered player is dropped by a manager they will be put in a locked state for a period of 2+ days and be subject to the normal FAAB rules.  The FAAB acquisition period will end with Week 16 of the NFL season. Any FAAB funds that a manager has at the end of the fantasy season will not rollover to the next, they will simply disappear.
  • Trading will be allowed during the regular season any time between the end of the draft and the trade deadline.  Off-season trading is allowed starting the day after the championship up until the draft.  A trade may take place between 2 or more teams and can include players, FAAB funds, and/or draft picks. If a trade involves draft picks, there must be one pick on each side of the trade. If there is not, then the lowest draft pick of the team not including one will be added to balance the trade (this is due to NFL.com Fantasy needing each team to have the same number of actual draft picks).  If a player trades a future draft pick, they are responsible for the entry fee for the next season, even if they decide to leave the league.  A trade will be reviewed by a commissioner and pass if it is deemed fair.  If a trade does not seem fair, or if it appears that 2 teams are colluding, then the trade will not go through.  If a trade does not go through, it may be appealed to the entire league and put to a vote in an attempt to pass it.
  • The winner of each division and the next 3 best overall records (regardless of division) will be awarded Championship Bracket spots.  The teams that do not make the Championship Bracket will earn spots in the Consolation Bracket based on reverse seeding.  Playoff re-seeding will not occur.

  • A team may designate 0-2 players of any position as a keeper for the following year.  A player who was drafted in round 1 or 2 of the prior years draft is not eligible to be kept.  In order for a player to be considered for keeper status, they must be on your roster at the end of the fantasy season (end of Week 16 of the NFL season).  In order to keep a player, a team will give up a draft pick.  Keeper cost is a draft pick that is +2 rounds higher then where the player was taken in the prior years draft.  If a keeper wasn’t drafted they are set to a 10th round draft pick value.  If 2 keepers are valued at the same draft pick cost, one of the keepers will incur a +1 round additional “penalty”.  The player that receives this “penalty” is up to the manager to decide.  Keeper value follows a player through trades and free agency.  If a keeper is dropped and not on a roster by the end of the fantasy year, then their value resets.  A list of keepers and values can be found here.
  • The draft will consist of 14 rounds, with each team satisfying the leagues roster requirements. This includes drafting a K and a DST. Current draft order may be found here.
  • The league consists of 12 members, including 3 commissioners
