As of today, we’ve got seven teams renewed for this year. We are missing:

Exploding Pancakes (SenorBeef)
Disgruntled Goats (motu)
Nine Inch Neils (Really Not All That Bright)
Moridwon (Hamlet)
Big Mack Attack (enalzi)
Chicago Cardinals (dalej42)
The Goal-den Girls (Sir T-Cups’ wife)

Hopefully this will get all or most of them to renew!

Draft order will be:

1 - Fourth & Nineteen (Wilson)
2 - The Quack Attack (Sir T-Cups)
3 - The Goal-den Girls (Sir T-Cups’ wife)
4 - Omnipotents (Omniscient)
5 - Nine Inch Neils (Really Not All That Bright)
6 - Carcossa Yellow Kings (Munch)
7 - Exploding Pancakes (SenorBeef)
8 - Moridwon (Hamlet)
9 - Disgruntled Goats (motu)
10 - Baltimore Weirdos (weirddave)
11 - Spiritus Mundane (Spiritus Mundi)
12 - Hermits (The Mad Hermit)
13 - Big Mack Attack (enalzi)
14 - Chicago Cardinals (dalej42)

That’s consolation bracket winner first (me), followed by reverse standings order from last year, which I believe is right.

I’ll work on compiling eligible keepers in the next few days, as well as hunting down the missing owners.

3

Draft date should read 9/3/19 @ 8:30pm EDT (Tuesday) - forgot to change the year from 2018 when I copied from last year’s thread.

4

If it makes anything easier, I’ll be keeping Aaron Jones (drafted in the 12th, so use a 10th) and Derrius Guice (drafted in the 11th, so using a 9th). I would love to keep Davante Adams, but I drafted him in 2016, kept him in 2017 and 2018, so I think I lose him to the max 2 years keeper rule (will someone be checking those?).

5

I’m definitely back, have I messed up something on Yahoo? I’m going to try to sign on to the actual Yahoo site rather than the app, it’s blocked on my work laptop, but I’ll try to access the site from Safari on my iPad

6

You’re back in, dale. The only one missing is enalzi.

7

Here to defend my crown! Um, from six years ago.

8

I’m in, just haven’t hopped on to Yahoo yet.

9

Both myself and the Mrs. are in.

How do we designate our keeper? Just let you know in the thread?

10

I think we’ve got everyone back now!
I still haven’t gotten to compile the complete list of eligible keepers - I will get to that tomorrow night.

11

I’m keeping Chris Godwin in the 10th round and Courtland Sutton in the 12th. May also keep Doug Martin in R13 depending on whether he lands somewhere before the keeper deadline.

12

Thanks for taking over this year at commish, Wilson. I ended up having to pick up the dynasty league when Varlos disappeared and I’ve been less invested in FF lately and in general didn’t want to run as many leagues as I was.

If anyone happens to be interested, we have a few spots open in the big league. It drafts next week, Wednesday the 4th at 8pm eastern. You have to attend the draft - because we have 20 players and yahoo’s automatic values are meant for 12 players, the auto-drafter simply can’t build a viable team.

But it’s a fun league - with how much bigger it is than normal you have more strategies/difficult decisions you can use in the (auction) draft. And talent is spread much thinner, so you’re more rewarded for finding breakout players and sneaky good values.

If you can make the draft and you’re interested in trying it this year, send me a PM or post over in that thread.

15

I moved the keeper declaration to Monday. Draft remains Tuesday, 8:30 pm.

16

My keepers are:
8 Ronald Jones II (TB - RB)
10 Sam Darnold (NYJ - QB)
11 Deshaun Watson  (Hou - QB)

17

I’m keeping Mack and Murray

18

6-72 Kerryon Johnson (Det - RB) Y
8-100 Alvin Kamara  (NO - RB) KY
9-125 Chris Carson  (Sea - RB) KY
I feel like I’ve won this league on keepers the last few years although it hasn’t turned into any wins. I think I have the best set of 3, with only Spiritus and Dale (Chicago Cardinals) coming close.

19

This is a slight hijack, but it seems a good place to put it. Are we not doing an NFL pick’em this year?

Omnipotents
6-74 Sony Michel (NE - RB) Y

14-186 Baker Mayfield (Cle - QB) Y
