By-Laws

Adam has free entry for 2024

All trades involving future picks require that both teams deposit half their dues for the years of said future picks.

Trade deadline Sunday 12:30 pm EST of week 12. 

Trades do not have to be equal in number of players or draft picks. In other words, Team A could trade Josh Allen to Team B for 3 draft picks.

The season runs through wk 17

Roster cutdown takes place the Friday after the nfl draft. Rosters go to 20. Taxi goes to 0. Keeper max by position at cutdown: 4QB, 4TE, 9WR, 7RB, 2D

Taxi squad is a max of 3 players. Said players must be added after the league draft and before waivers end for the year (end of NFL week one).

Taxi squad players may be moved up to your main roster at any time, but you must DROP (release) a player off your roster in order to do so. You CAN NOT move a player to your taxi squad once the season starts.

You may move a taxi squad player to your main roster for any reason, as long as you release a player on your main roster first.

Primary roster cuts (to 20) will happen each year on the Friday after the NFL draft. 

Waiver wire blind bidding will begin the day of the NFL final roster cuts in August and will last for a week. There will be a $10,000 budget. There will be one day of free for all pick ups the day after waivers end. Final keepers declared by 9pm Eastern the day before the first NFL regular season game. 

Draft: Snake style year 1, NFL style each subsequent year. 25 - (# of keepers) = # of rounds for the draft.

Draft order: Determined by finish - last is first, best is last.

Payout: Total points wk 1-17 determine finish. 

  • 4th place = free entry next year
  • 3rd place = 20% of remaining pool (pool - 4th -site - $600 to empire)
  • 2nd place = 30% of pool
  • 1st place = 50% of pool

Trades: All trades must be approved by Sancho and Dave. Lor and KL will act as surrogates for Sancho and Dave, respectively, should either be in involved in the trade.
