Are the keepers the first player listed for each team? They have a K on almost every player?  And what team is Scott taking over?

I have no idea why the last draft is showing like that. There is a new designation setting for keeper status, and it looks like it believes all of last season's players are "keepers".  Just ignore and apply the same rules as we did in previous years.

Up to 2 keepers, if you have one, you lose the round before (so drafted in 4th, you lose a 3rd). If you select 2 keepers, the first player you lose two rounds (drafted in the 4th, you lose a 2nd, and the 2nd player you lose one round.

So that will be selecting by being the higher draft pick? I was going to keep 78 and 103, so the 78 would be the lost two rounds? Or can I just list 103 first?

It is a sliding scale, so it is 1-round for the first keeper, but if you want 2 keepers, the first one will cost you an extra round. 

So in your case, it would be a 6th round for #78 (which was an 8th rounder in 2024) and a 10th for #103, which was an 11th in 2024.

This shows the teams and the draft picks from last year a little easier:

I just need to go back and make sure we don't have back to back keepers as they were drafted if you kept them last year, and are ineligible this year.

The problem is I dont remember which one was my keeper, the new list doesnt show it and the other post shows a bunch of keepers. I think it was T Hill/WR or K Williams/RB

I looked back at 2023 and the only common player was K. Williams, I think it has to be him.

I will try to look it up, I don't know what Yahoo did, but they messed it up big time.

OK, I will take a look, and I stand corrected on the keeper round cost:

The first keeper is one round, and if you keep a second, that one costs two rounds. The only exception is if that you are keeping 2 players that would give up the same pick (like a 5th and a 6th both would require your 4th rounder), so in that case it gets swapped and you have to give up a 3rd and a 5th instead (for that example).
