12 team league, currently made up of 7 core owners who have played in redraft/keeper formats for the last 5-6 years together. We are looking to make the jump to an auction-style, dynasty league. I am a very well organized and experienced commissioner who has around 18 years of running various leagues. We are excited about the new challenge and committed to this new format. We are looking to fill out our league.
Here's some information, and the sales pitch:
This is a very exciting time, as each owner will be responsible for building a team from the ground up. This is quite the task, and needs to be considered before joining. Along with selecting your team through an auction process (fake money talks), you will need to manage a salary cap, year round roster, and while keeping the short term and long term of your franchise in mind. The name of the game remains winning games during the regular season and playoffs.
This is league has a few elements, here are the highlights:
* 12 Team PPR Performance Scoring with Flex (RB, WR, TE)
* Yearly Salary Cap of $200
* Initial Auction Draft which includes veterans and rookies in 2013.
* Manage Salary Cap and Contracts
* Contracts are determined by owners.(Vets up to 3 years and Rookies up to 4 years)
* Manage an active roster (20)
* Manage a taxi squad (4), rookies can be placed on taxi squad and remain up to 4 years.
* Blind bidding for Free Agents after the draft.
* Franchise Tag (1) in 2014
* Restricted Free Agent Tag (2) in 2014
* Rookie Draft (4 Rounds) in 2014
* Unrestricted Free Agents
* League Fee is 40

PLEASE READ RULES and SETTINGS, there will be questions but don't be lazy.
The initial formation of rosters will involve holding an extensive auction draft through the site. The auction will begin shortly after the league has been filled. Each team will have a salary cap of $200(funny money). This $200 will cover all auction prices for players, and potential add (bids) during the regular season. Manage it wisely, you need a 20 man roster, and optional 4 taxi squad spots, upon completion of auction. This will be a new process for a lot of owners, so we will begin slowly. The player placed on the auction block will be nominated by each owner, nominating a player involves placing an initial bid of $1. Each franchise will be notified of the ongoing bidding process by email. THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF TEAM BUILDING, BE DILIGENT AND STAY TUNED IN, NO EXCUSES, JUST EFFORT. The bidding process including bids/franchise will be viewable by everyone. Feel free to stake your claim on a player, run up the price(at your own risk), and have fun with the process. We will begin by auctioning 3 players at a time, increase to 6 players, 12 players, 24 players, etc.. Auction for each player will conclude after 12-24 hours of no additional bid activity. Given the scope of putting together these rosters, (12 teams x 24 players = 288 players), this should take a few weeks. Saying that, this should be a lot of fun and create some interesting discussion and back and forth banter, along with some hard feelings and happiness over losing or winning a player. Personalities/tendencies will be revealed.
There will be questions, but PLEASE READ THE RULES/SETTINGS. Please feel free to bring your questions forward.
I believe we have a very good foundation, structure, rules, and settings for the league. I expect some growing pains, but this should be a fun and challenging league.
Please post your email/response/PM if you are interested . We will be starting the auction a few days after filling the league. We are currently running test auction so guys can get familiar with the process
Thanks
