This league is a 12 team PPR / Dynasty / and DEVY league. Our draft consists of players from the current NFL draft pool, as well as underclassman (devy). This league was established in 2010. Basic devy rules for our draft: This league allows a league maximum of 12 college players to be rostered at any point in time, with a maximum of 4 per team. See constitution below for more detail.
I will post below the league constitution and scoring parameters. We have openings for two teams (listed below) and once we have two owners I will conduct a dispersal draft including the players and picks from those two teams. The league league fees are $55.85, which include $50 entry fee plus $5.85 per team for MFL hosting site fees. We give 100% payback (see at the end of this thread for payouts). If interested please post in this thread and send me a PM with you email address. We're looking for owners who are long term and enjoy the dynasty and / or Devy format instead of those that just like to play with the redraft mentality.
Also, I planned to post a poll to determine if we need to have 6 points per TD instead of 4. Please take that into consideration when reading over the scoring.
See below for details on our scoring. (see reports / rules / league scoring from our league link for details about PK ad DEF scoring and more details about scoring - https://www61.myfantasyleague.com/2021/home/33706#0

League Constitution
Teams and Setup
The league will be made up of three divisions of 4 teams each. Owners will participate in a 13 game regular season each year with a playoff involving six (6) teams. Three division winners seeded #1 and #2 and #3 and 3 wildcard teams seeded #4 thru #6. The two division winners with the best records will receive byes the first week of the playoffs. Week 15 will have the #1 seed playing the lowest remaining seed (example #6 seed is the lowest seed) and the #2 seed will play the remaining team. The Championship game is played in week 16.
Divisions will change yearly, in order to try and keep even competition equal among divisions. Based on the following seasons win/loss record, the divisions will be realigned. Top record will go to Division 1, 2nd best will go to Division 2, 3rd best will go to Division 3, 4th best will go to Division 1, and that process continues until all teams have been assigned a new division. In the event of equal records, total points scored will be used as the tiebreaker.
Should an Owner leave the league for any reason, a capable replacement will be found.
Initial Draft
There will be a 24 round initial draft. The draft will be a 3rd round reversal. Simply put, this is exactly like a regular serpentine draft except round 3 is reversed. So the team with the last pick in the 1st round would have the 1st pick in every even round as in a normal serpentine, as well as having the 1st pick in the 3rd round. All other odd number rounds would revert back to them having the last pick in the round.
Draft position will be chosen by owners, based on a random order generator. The random order generator will give an order of owners, and owners will choose their draft slots in that order.
Draft picks can be traded before and during the initial draft, as well 2011 rookie draft picks.
All current NFL players, including NFL rookies, as well as all current college players are eligible to be drafted.
College Players
A maximum of 12 college players can be on rosters at any point in time. There is a maximum of 4 players allowed per team. Teams can continue to choose college players up until the 12th player is off the board, at which point no more players may be chosen. To be considered a college player, a player must be on a college roster or have signed their letter of intent to intend a college (ie no high school prospects can be chosen until their letter of intent has been signed). Once a player is drafted onto an NFL team, he loses his status as a college player and becomes an NFL rookie. These players are eligible to be traded the same as any other player. If a development prospect is released by a team, that player is ineligible to be picked up by another. They will instead be available to be drafted as either a regular rookie or devy in the following rookie draft, whichever they are eligible for.
Rookie Draft
The rookie draft will be 4 rounds, held annually in May. The draft order for the first 6 picks will be in order of worst record to best among non-playoff teams. For picks 7-12, the order will slotted based on playoff finish, with the league champion receiving the 12th pick. In the event of a tie in record, total points scored will be used at the tiebreaker, with less points scored meaning the earlier pick. Both rookies and college players are eligible to be drafted. If for example there are currently 7 college players rostered, an additional 5 will be able to be rostered during that rookie draft. All rookie draft picks can be traded. A pick is considered a future pick if there is still a rookie draft in between now and when that pick is. For example, a 2011 draft pick is considered a future pick up until the conclusion of the 2010 draft, when it then becomes simply that years pick. Picks can only be traded 1 year in advance.
There will be a 24 hour timer for draft picks to be made. If you do not make your pick within your 24 hours, the next team will be on the clock. At that point the team who has missed their pick can come in at any time and make their missed selection.
Supplemental Draft
The supplemental draft will be setup in a thread with bids made publicly in an auction style format open for approx. two days. Bids for a player can be made using the team's following season's draft picks still owned (any picks acquired/lost through trade are not eligible to be bid). Highest bid gets the player and loses the pick that was bid. Value of the following season's picks will be based on the order of draft from the most recent rookie draft.
Rosters
Rosters will be a minimum of 14 players, and a maximum of 26 players.
A player is eligible only at the position listed on the league site.
The starting lineup will consist of the following
1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 DEF, 1 FLEX (RB, WR, TE)
Players on a bye will not be allowed in starting lineups.
If a player is not in the MFL player database but was signed by an NFL team and you wish to pick him up, post a message on the league site stating you wish the commish to add a proxy player of the same name. You can then put a bid in for that player if we're in BB mode or you will get that player immediately if we're in first-come-first-serve mode.
Waivers
In-season
Teams will have $1000 of blind bid dollars to use throughout the season. Bids must be made in increments of $1. After the blind bid process for the week is concluded, regular first come first serve waivers will be in place at no charge of blind bid dollars. Waivers will process in-season on Wednesday night at 9:00 pm ET. Only close the WW (adds) for player's whos game has started or played. Leave open add/drops for all other players until Monday night game starts. You cannot pickup a player who's game has already played, even if that player was signed after his team has played and before the waiver process. That player must go to the waiver process. Blind bidding dollars do not carry over to the next year.
Off-season
We will run one last waivers after week 17 and then FCFS starts for the off-season.
Off-season after our rookie draft
After our rookie draft I will set up the calendar event to have blind bid waivers each week, starting on Monday at 12:00 am ET and ending on Friday at 10:00 pm ET.
Injured Reserve
We will allow teams to start using IR with the first preseason game and when MFL allows the use of the IR based upon when the NFL starts using it. Maximum IR spots is 2, but we allow unlimited IR spots for COVID (designation of C or H). All teams must activate IR players within one week after MFL rolls over to the next season's website and we do too.
Scoring
PPR league. 4 pts/TD pass, 6 pts/TD rush or receive. .75 PPR for RB, 1 PPR for, 1.25 PPR for TE
Any scoring dispute must be made after the current week's games, and before the next week's first game. Changes will only be made if the hosting site allows it. The hosting site decisions on scoring is final unless a mistake has been made in the rules setups, which means that the hosting site setups contradict what is stated in the constitution. If that is the case, then the commissioner will use the constitution to change the hosting site setup if possible. It is the responsibility of each owner to read the constitution and compare it with the hosting site and make any discrepancies known to the league.
We will apply MFL previous week stat changes if they are received by MFL before the start of the next week's games. They usually get them on Wed or Thurs each week, but they could come much later. Once a new week's game starts, the previous week's games are official.
Tiebreakers
A. Order of Tiebreakers, Standings
1.) Total Points Scored
2.) Head-To-Head Record
3.) Divisional Record
4.) Power Rank
B. Tie-Breakers, Game
Designate Bench Player to break ties. If the points scored for the designated bench players still has the game tied, total overall bench points will be used as the secondary tie breaker.
Trading
There will be no league voting on each individual trade. All trades are valid, unless collusion is expected. In the event of suspected collusion, the trade will be put to a vote by the league. Excluding the two owners involved in the trade, the other 10 owners will vote on the deal. If 8 of 10 believe collusion has occurred, the deal will be reversed and both owners given a warning. More than one such warning will result in removal from the league.
Trades must result in rosters that comply with the rules. You may be required to drop a player in order to complete a trade to stay within roster limits.
Owners have a 30 min window to dispute a trade that was a mistake. In the event of a trade that you accidentally inputted, contact me immediately.
The trade deadline will be the kickoff of the first game of Week 14 of the season.
Rule Changes
Rule changes will be discussed in the offseason. In order for a rule change to be enacted, it will require 9 out of 12 owners agreeing on the change. Owners can nominate rule changes to be discussed at any time after the Super Bowl has occured.
Fees
Fees will be $55.85 (50 entry fee + 5.85 mfl fees) for each team, due by May 1st of the upcoming season.
Payouts
$600 total
6 teams make playoffs @ $25 each = $150
1 points champ = $50
1 Super Bowl Champ = $300
1 Runner-up = $100
150 + 50 + 300 + 100 = 600
I will post below the league constitution and scoring parameters. We have openings for two teams (listed below) and once we have two owners I will conduct a dispersal draft including the players and picks from those two teams. The league league fees are $55.85, which include $50 entry fee plus $5.85 per team for MFL hosting site fees. We give 100% payback (see at the end of this thread for payouts). If interested please post in this thread and send me a PM with you email address.
