First off several of the owners of this league are readers here and I am not trying to cause issues but I have concerns.
History: This is a dynasty league that is just starting year #2 and I have enjoyed the league.
My concern: We had a cut down due date to 20 players this past Saturday. 4 of 12 teams did not turn in cuts so the commish made the cuts for them. He did not cut the 5 worst players and I am not sure if he did random or what but he dropped some scrubs but also players like Philip Rivers, Eli Manning and Jamal Lewis. I understand his idea of making it painful if they did not meet the deadline but I am concerned about a couple of things. 1- These owners have not been active. I think this creates an issue finding new owners when you drop talented players off their roster. 2- This was a decision made to handle this issue and it was not specifically in the rules. The decision significantly changes the value of draft picks for the upcoming restocking rookie/veteran draft. Many owners have traded draft picks recently not knowing that this could be a possibility.
I have emailed the commish my concerns and am waiting to hear back. What would be your reaction to this? I am obviously waiting to hear what the commish says but I have concerns for the future of this league if 4 teams need owners and are put at a disadvantage. Should I consider finding a new league if I am concerned or is this over reacting? Again, I plan on waiting to hear if this is what the league is sticking with.
Thanks!
