</div>

Can someone clarify when the keeper deadline is and has anyone posted an official list? I’ve been busy as hell and am running out the door, but I want to make sure I don’t hold anything up.

Make sure you input your keepers into the league roster setting page, too (my team \> choose keepers). I’ll have to put either Retro or Beef’s in manually.

Can I file a petition to get a better roster?  
Also, when will keepers be inputted into the league so we can see the list of remaining/available players? Edit: I guess I can list them manually, but I figured it’d be easier to use the yahoo league tools.

How is this in regards to keeper strength relative to previous seasons? You probably got the best group of keepers, but is this an aberration, or does 1-2 teams usually pull this off yearly?

There’s usually a few teams that manage to get some solid keepers each year. Do you have access to the previous years on the league page? There’s a drop-down box above and to the right of the standings with a year in them. You can go in and check the draft results, and look for the keepers. You just need to keep in mind that you need to keep any potential keepers on your roster all year - if they hit the free agent pool, they lose their eligibility. (Also - keepers were automated by Yahoo just a few years ago - before then, we had to keep track of everything during the draft.)

Do you have two 3rd round picks? I lost track.

I’ll make my keepers:  
Jimmy Graham (counts as 5th rounder)  
Chris Ivory (counts as 13th rounder)

Not going to bother with Blount. Ivory being mentioned in trade talks so I’ll take my chances on him.

I am keeping Marshawn Lynch, Vincent Jackson and Wes Welker thanks to a brilliant, brilliant trade on my part.
