LEAGUE FINANCES

League fees are $60 per year and will be managed through www.leaguesafe.com. To promote continuity first year owners are required to pay 50% of the league fees for the next year. In the event an owner abandons or decides not to renew his franchise by the league entry fee deadline the prepaid league fees will be forfeit. Owners may transfer their team to a new owner at any time provided MyFantasyLeague.com website allows franchise information to be changed. All league fees must be paid by July 31st of the season year.

Prizes will be awarded for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place usiing a 50/30/20 percent split of funds remaining after paying for league hosting. Any rounding will favor the higher place. For example the first year entry fees of $720 will be distributed as follows:

League Hosting: $45.00

First Place: $338

Second Place: $203

Third Place: $134

For any scoring disputes, MyFantasyleague.com statistics will be considered the official statitstics for this league. In short, whatever MFL records as final stats for players will be official.

DRAFT

All drafts will be held using a live online auction format. The winning bid determines the yearly salary for the drafted player. Each year the draft pool will consist of free agents and rookies. Each drafted pplayer must be signed to a minimum 1 year contract.

WAIVERS

After the draft and through the first week of the season waiver pickups will be on a first come first served basis. During the rest of the season there will be two waiver periods. The first period will be from the last game of the previous week (Tuesday at 1:00am) until Thursday Midnight. During this period owners will be able to bid on any players they would like to pick up. The second period which starts immediately after the first period will be first come first served waiver pickups.

SALARY CAP

Each team will have a $250 salary cap for the season. During the initial draft $220 will be available for bidding on players.

CONTRACTS

Each team will have 50 contract years to divide among it's players. A team is not required to use all of it's contract years each season. Once assigned contract years can not be changed. Prior to the beginning of each season all players contract years will be decremented by one and any player with 0 years will be placed into the free agent pool and available for draft. A team may place the "franchise" tag on any one player with 0 years remaining on his contract up to one week prior to the start of the draft. That player will receive a one-year contract extension and a salary increase of 20% of his existing salary. If a team does not have the salary cap space available they can not use the "franchise" tag.

CUTTING A PLAYER UNDER CONTRACT

When a player under contract is cut the team will be charged 25% of the player's salary for the current year against their salary cap to drop the player. For example if a team cuts a player with a salary of $20, $5 will be charged against the salary cap and $15 will be available to pick up other players.

you need to account for all the thursday night games. If i read correctly i can wait up until thursday midnight after a thursday game and get WW players first come first serve based on what happened in that game.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm not sure if I understand the issue but I will try to clarify. Midnight Thursday is the start of thursday so FCFS WW would be available prior to the start of the Thursday games.The idea is to have blind bidding prior to the first game of the week so people who have busy schedules get an opportunity to pick up players and then open the WW up for people who have injury issues or whatever. But I would expect that, since this is a Dynasty league that there will be less movement on the WW.

Some questions:

[*]I assume I have to give out at least a 1 year contract to every player I get in the auction, right?

[*]Is there a salary increase between years of the contract? Or does the salary stay fixed? (except for franchise tag increase)

[*]It says "When a player under contract is cut the team will be charged 25% of the player's contract against their salary cap to drop the player" is that for the single year, or for all years of the contract? Say I have $20 contract with 3 years remaining. Is my penalty $5 every year of those 3 years? Or just $5 in the year I drop the player?

[*]What Salary/contract is given to free agent pickups?

Not sure I like the idea of first come/first serve waivers during the period between draft ending and week 1. I can't be at my computer for every piece of news that comes out during preseason, and this gives a benefit to people who are really on line as news occurs during that time frame. (weekly first come first serve doesn't bother me much)

Thanks for the feedback. Let me address your questions:One year minimum contract for any drafted player. I will add this to the bylaws.

I do not currently have the league set up for salary increase and I would not be opposed to adding it if a super majority (75%) of owners approve.

25% for a single year only. I would like to do something like 10% per year left on contract but the league site does not provide that feature.

Default salary/contract for free agents is $1/1 year. I would not be opposed to raising the salary if a super majority of owners supported it.

Regarding the FCFS WW between the draft and the first week, I see 22 players for 12 teams eating up a large majority of the quality players and I would not expect a lot of action prior to week 2 or three while sleeper stars start to emerge. I would expect that with rosters so deep and WW thin there would be more trades. Again, I am not opposed to a change if owners support it.

If you have any other questions or need more clarification on one of the above questions please let me know.

Thanks,

Roland

Myself and a few friends have experience with redraft leagues. A couple others who I do not know appear to have experience with dynasty leagues. If you have experience with redraft leagues this would be the next step. I filled the one open spot but I think there will some people who will not pay the league fees by the July 31st deadline. My goal is to make this a competitive fun casual league. If you're interested send me a private message with your name and preferred email and I will add you to the waiting list. Currently there is one other person from my redraft league on the list.
