I got the impression, that the owner makes the choice...or basically default to whatever costs the owner the fewest rounds...
That was the impression I got too, but it was a pretty confusing thread so I just wanted to make sure everyone is ok with it for this circumstance.

Im going to change a keeper. I am going to keep Alshon Jeffery and Eldeman. It will cost me a 7th and 8th rounder(moving both up 2) or a 7th and 9th ( moving one pick up two and the other up 1) however that works. I drafted them in 9 and 10 last year.
I don't think we ever officially specified if the player can determine which is their first or second keeper depending on the rounds lost, or if it automatically reverts to later pick loses two rounds and the earlier draft pick automatically loses one.
Unless anyone objects I say this decision can be left up to the owner this year and then possibly next year we finalize that the later keeper is 2 rounds and the earlier is one.
Everyone think that is fair?

Also, Adam thanks for all of your help with the league, it makes it a lot easier to deal with when other owners are active and help inform everyone.

Sorry I havent been on here. We will likely decide on a draft date/time on either the Tuesday or Wednesday before the season season starts. I edit the draft order when I put in keepers, it is the reverse order of last years standings. I am keeping Golladay and Chubb and losing a 10 and 11 I believe.

There were a few things in this game that stood out to me.
First, as everyone noticed, Mack may be even a bigger difference maker than we would have hopes. Even on plays he didn't record a stat, his impact was all over the field. Roquan's sack was because of Mack, a bunch of hurried throws because of Mack pushing the OL into the backfield and last his hustle on the long Cobb touchdown. Didn't really see anything at all I could complain about with him.
Roquan looks fast and can cover a lot of ground sideline to sideline. We need him on the field more and he should help in pretty much every facet of our defense over Nick K.
Hicks is still an absolute monster.
Honestly didn't know anything about Robertson-Harris before the game, but he looked explosive coming off the line. If he can continue to play like that we may have another strong core piece for the defense.
Callahan's tackling really impressed me. He seems to be able to really help with the run game.
For offense, besides the first drive I wasn't impressed. The second half was a disaster and Mitch looked in way over his head. He went a decent stretch where he didn't even run through his progressions and just took off running every passing play. Then in the 4th when he threw a few deep balls they were terribly thrown. We need to see a lot of improvements out of him.
It was at Green Bay in primetime, so not the end of the world, but I think allowing the comeback to happen the way it did proves Nagy has a lot of work to do with figuring out how to call games.

I am probably alone with this, but I think Pace's early round drafting has been absolutely terrible (before this season at least) He consistently has drafted project/raw players who are clearly not ready for the NFL, and if they ever did develop it would be towards the end of their rookie deals and we would have to pay them before they really contribute. If Trubisky isnt a top 10 qb in the next 2 seasons Pace should be launched and would have had an abysmal run as Gm

If you are in this league please make sure you are checking the message board in Yahoo. We are deciding on draft dates, upping the entry fee and adding a keeper.
-
Most likely going to be the 3rd or the 4th around 7 CST

Can I chose a player to keep that is not from the draft but on the active roster? Sorry, this is my first keeper league?
Also, when is the draft etc?
We will pick a day for the draft soon. It has historically always been within 5 days of the season opener on Thursday night. Fortunately now that you can draft with the yahoo app, we have had a lot more luck with finding a time that works for anyone.
Also, don't forget to check the message board on the league page. Most of the info gets posted there.

Sent out the last invite. Once that is accepted we are ready to go. I will set up the leaguesafe and the polls for voting once the invitation is accepted.
-
Still interested? Or anyone else?

I'll take a spot. Which teams are available?
Grizzled Angst is available. There are a few decent keepers on that roster, it is posted in this thread. If you want that team please pm your email address and I will invite you.
-
We have one spot left. I would like to keep it to people who use this site, so if anyone else is interested the roster of Grizzled Angst is still available and has some solid keeper options. If we don't get any interest in a few days I will branch out to find a replacement.
-
'TD' has been invited and has requested to take over the Crushers and tentatively wants to keep Carson Wentz. One more spot available.

We are looking for two new people to join the TalkBears $25 keeper league. This league has been going on for close to 10 years and is always very competitive.
We use Yahoo and collect league dues with Leaguesafe. 1st gets $150, 2nd gets $75 and 3rd gets their entry money back.
Currently, the keeper rules are you are able to keep any player as long as you drafted the player and they are on your roster at the end of the season, you didn't draft the player in the first round and you didn't keep the same player the year before. You lose the pick from the round before you took that player the previous year. So, for example, last year I drafted Deandre Hopkins in the 4th round, so this year I can keep him and lose my 3rd round pick. Anyone interested can either post in this thread or message me. It will be first come first serve on which team you take over, since you will be picking a keeper from last years roster.
-
I will set up some polls on Yahoo for those suggestions and we can see what everyone thinks. Personally, I am not opposed to adding a keeper or upping the entry, but I also don't want to prohibit any long standing members who may not have a lot of expendable money for FF. We will see though.
Leaning towards keeping Hopkins and losing my 3rd as of now.
-
We are definitely going to have at least one opening. So if anyone is interested in joining this year let me know. More info soon.
-
Thanks everyone. Just waiting on one person to pay and we will do the payouts. I just emailed them, so hoping to get that taken care of today.
Also, Gary, or anyone else interested in this league, the new guy who stepped in last minute will not be returning, since he finished 2-11 and stopped setting his lineup half way through the season, so there will be an opening.

150
75
25

Ok, we are full

Were gonna have to go first come first serve at this point. If any lurkers want in and can draft at 8:30 central leave your email address.

As everyone else has said health is the biggest key. We also have a difficult schedule so things could go a lot of ways. As of now I am really liking how the roster is constructed, I just have the same gripe I did last year about backup QB. I understand not wanting to add unneeded pressure on Mitch by having a backup that people will be calling for the second Mitch has a bad game or two. But at the same time, Chase Daniel is not an NFL QB imo. He looks lost when he plays in regular season games, and with how much of Mitch's game revolves around his mobility, it would be nice to either have a legitimate veteran game manager to keep the ship afloat if he gets banged up a few games, like last year. Or at worst a young guy with upside.
