Thanks. Surprisingly Steve wasn't the last one to sign up this year. If you look back through this thread, he was the usual culprit.

I want to lock in keepers by the end of next week. Also I picked Monday September 7th for the draft, which is Labor Day. Not sure how well this works for everyone, so if people want to suggest a different date/time, have at it and we can see what works best.

I want to get keepers wrapped up this week so that people who actually prepare for the draft have some time to do so. The deadline for keepers is this Sunday. I have only had responses from 5 people, including myself. Either message me, post here, or on the league site. If you don't know how to look at your roster from last year or have other questions on how the keepers work, reach out to me.

I'll set Tony Romo as my keeper this year.

I'll keep Marshawn Lynch

My keeper will be Andrew Luck. Sorry about the lateness...

Here is the keeper list for 2015. For those who kept a player for an additional year, that player's value is determined by Yahoo's ADP. This value can change up to the weekend prior to the draft. I will post the final value of that player the Friday before the draft. At this point no one can make a change to their keeper. However you can between now and the day before the draft throw back your keeper and choose not to have one without penalty.



Currently the draft is set for September 7th at 4PM. I have not heard from anyone about changing that so I assume we are good with that time. If you can't make the draft, Yahoo will auto-draft for you.

Thanks Lucas.

So now that we're all set, the only question left to answer... 

Who's playing for second place this year?   ;D

^Great question. NRW! The trophy is already in the process of having the Stud's name engraved on it, so I guess you'll be one of the losers fighting for that second place ribbon.

That's just weird Lake, but if you want to engrave your name on a participation trophy, go right ahead, just don't tell Daddy Harrison...

Here is the final keeper list. The only change was Brady actually slid to the 7th round. If you no longer want your keeper, let me know by Sunday.

Yes.  We were thinking that there might be another spot opening up this year, but....

Unfortunately until the leagues cleans up it's act and can actually keep a felon off the field, The Ebony Stud will always be able to field a team.

This is actually our fifth year. July/August of each year we start back up but I am not sure when we will have a space open up again. Now that you commented, you will make the list of people I hit up if a spot opens up.
