League Rules: Most of the league rules are listed on the leagues homepage and may change slightly from year to year. Please see website for more information. Unless the majority (7 of 12) votes otherwise, the point system and player positions will remain. The rules of the league are listed below and will be the standard rules year to year unless voted on by the majority of the league (7 of 12 managers).Roster spots are as follows: 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 WR/RB, 1 TE, 1 DEF, 1 K. We also have 5 Bench spots and an IR spot.See below for the IR Rules according to NFL.com:
Custom league managers may choose to enable a Reserve slot to allow an injured or suspended NFL player to be placed on a non-active fantasy roster slot. If a player meets a number of NFL-specific roster designations and you believe upon return to an active NFL roster that he will be an impact player for your team, you can place the player on this Reserve (RES) slot.
Players are eligible for the Reserved slot if they are officially labeled by their NFL team as:
RES: Injured Reserve
NON: Non Football Related Injured Reserve SUS: Suspended
PUP: Physically Unable to Perform
EXE: Exempt
Once a player is moved to the RES roster position, you will have an open spot on your roster and can add a player to your active roster without the need to drop someone. Note that when the time comes to activate your reserved player, you will need to make a corresponding transaction to ensure your roster meets league-specified roster limits. Once a player becomes active, you can keep him in your RES spot, but you will be restricted from improving your team via add, drop or trade since your roster will be in an illegal state. Note that your team will still earn fantasy points for matchups that take place, but you cannot improve your team via external transactions.Draft:
Lottery will include 2 draft order lottery picks: one for 12th-7th and one for 6th-1st. The lottery will take place on https://100yardrush.com/ and will be recorded and posted here.
Rules:
1.) The no-frills rule: You must keep 4 players on your roster at the beginning of the season (Must be 1 QB, 1 RB, 1 TE, and 1 WR). This prevents managers from taking 4 high profile RB and stacking their team. Players must be on your team at the end of the season in order to keep them for next year. They may be kept for as long as the manager likes.
2.) Replacements: If someone leaves the league on their own terms, the commissioner will invite the replacements. Suggestions for replacements will be taken into consideration.
3.) “Not into It” Rule: The league commissioner has the right to kick teams out of the league that are not into keeping up and managing their teams. Although we would love to take your money year to year, we would also like to have a competitive league, which all members are active. This doesn’t mean you have to make 100’s of transactions throughout the year, but if we notice that you are not switching out your bye-week players a couple weeks in a row, don’t expect to get invited back.
4.) Schedule and payments:
August 9th @ 12:00pm Draft Pick Lottery results will be emailed to you.
5.) Adds and Drops: There is no min/max for adds drops.
6.) No complaining: Most of these rules are standard NFL.com rules. Please check the site “League Settings” and read the rules. Too many people email me and complain about something in week 10, when the rule has been in place for 10 weeks already. If you have any problems with any of the rules, you must notify me before the draft so we can figure things out.
