2015 FOFC Auction League Back to full!

[Julio Riddols]

You're a butt for keeping Hill, Chief. A real butt. Good price to pay though.

[Julio Riddols]

I sent Schmidty another invite to ensure he gets in. I will finalize the teams after the deadline tomorrow night, so if we don't get 2 more then we'll go with 12.

Heh heh sorry Julio! He's terrific. I didn't want him going somewhere else.

[BishopMVP]

Hah, sorry SirFozzie sniped me there. If you do find a 14th I'm still game.

[Schmidty]

Guys, I have to be completely honest: I'm lost as far as keeper leagues go. Do I have to name a certain number of player on my current roster to keep?

I should read everything above, but today has been crazy hectic.

Team name TBD (Schmidty)

Adrian Peterson - 55
Andre Johnson - 29
Andrew Luck - 27
Roddy White - 24
Jeremy Maclin - 21
Vernon Davis - 20
Devonta Freeman - 15
Andre Williams - 3
Darren Mcfadden - 2
ALL OTHER PLAYERS - 1
(Gavin Escobar, Austin Davis)

Schmidty, you keep up to 3 keepers. Keep in mind, there is a dollar cost attached to them, from last year's auction and waiver wire action. In order to keep a keeper, you must add $10 to his cost from last year. So AP was $55 last year, and he would cost $65 this year.

The cap is $200, so if you kept AP and only AP at $65, you would have $135 to use for the auction. Does that make sense?

In my opinion, looking at your team, I would only keep Luck at $37 (after price increase). The other good players on your team, at the price they will come in at, I don't think are worth the value.

Yeah, I knew I was keeping Luck, but I didn't know where to go from there. Thanks!

[Julio Riddols]

Thanks for the assist Chief, I was asleep all morning, as night shift folks tend to be.

[Julio Riddols]

If I don't get keepers from raiders army I will just assume he isn't keeping anyone. He checked in to say he will be at the draft, but he hasn't chosen keepers yet.

[Julio Riddols]

If you're looking at this thread thinking about joining then you gotta ask yourself... Do you feel lucky? Well, in an auction league you make your own luck by outwitting the other talent starved owners and paying the right price for the right talent.

The real question is.. Are you good? Well, are ya? Punk?

If so, PM me your email. I love you.

[Julio Riddols]

Welcome to the fun house BishopMVP!

[Chief Rum]

Awesome.

[Julio Riddols]

Gah, hifirevival just notified me he has a work thing that came up and he had to drop out. Help me fill his spot!

[Julio Riddols]

Got the last spot filled, my good friend from Arizona will be entering the fray and taking over hifi's team.

[SirFozzie]

Ok. Was going to ask if you wanted me to get my bro involved

[Raiders Army]

I'll hold onto Justin Forsett. Thanks!

[Julio Riddols]

Thanks, Raiders Army! That gets us settled. Whenever my friend sends me his keepers, we'll be locking things down and moving to the next phase: watching the roster moves to adjust our draft strategies.

[Julio Riddols]

Keepers set, everything is looking good. See you guys Tuesday night @ 7:00 PM EST

[Julio Riddols]

5 minutes to draft start!

[Julio Riddols]

I think we did pretty well on the participation end of things in the draft, our only two no shows were late for understandable reasons. Good luck to everyone, and don't forget to set your lineups!

[BishopMVP]

Keeper question - it's unlikely, but if I want to keep Ameer Abdullah next year, would he count as $11 (since I picked him up as an FA), or at $36 (since he was drafted for $26)?
