[Exe Gesis]

Will see what the revised trade is and knock heads with others. Meanwhile, I'll look forward to your in-season trade offers like....you giving me Earnest Graham for my Darren McFadden

 

[Wizard]

No way does that trade get vetoed, its a little one-sided but its not ridiculous to suspect collusion.
And why the hel would LD be colluding.

 

[Exe Gesis]

Also...

Keeper deadline ends Aug 7th, US EST time. So around Sunday night, i'm going to go thru all rosters and cut players not kept, on IR. To get everyone to 34 total on roster with 34 keepers. And the draft will begin immediately after.

How does FA work in this? Can you pick up any FA if they've cleared waivers?

 

[Exe Gesis]

That's right, drd23.
Once waivers clear, then first come first serve for FAs.
What happens is soon as an NFL game starts, all FAs from those NFL teams become waivers (WA).
So, when all NFL games are finished (MNF), every FA ends up a WA.

Then, from Tuesday to Thursday around 3-6pm our time, people can make claims on waivers based on their waiver order.
Around 6pm Thursday, all waiver claims are processed, and every FA returns to being a FA (first come first serve).
Whenever you drop a player to FA who existed on your roster prior, he becomes a WA for 2 days outside of this period.
People can pick up a FA and drop him that day and he remains a FA.

 

[drd23]

When can we first pick up FAs? After the first week?

 

[Exe Gesis]

Soon as the draft is completed, there'll be a few days lead in where everyone is a FA, in the days before the first NFL game of the week.

How about i add my 4th rd 2012 pick, so that's with my 2nd 2011 3rd rd pick (#34) plus 2012 3rd rd pick. (my 2012 picks not the ones i got from GG).

To be fair, adding a 2nd and removing a third would be 'fair enough' IMO.

I'm beyond the point of caring though, Woodson can throw away valuable pieces if he wants to.

 

[Exe Gesis]

I know others are a little concerned about it. While some others don't care.
It's not about collusion, just a bad trade.
However, if Dagless is willing to say '**** it' then I'll too, and process the original trade in the draft thread, and LarryDavid's PM inbox will explode with new offers lol.

EDIT --- I've processed trade in draft thread. Let's move on now.

 

[NakedDeadGuy]

First round is up for grabs if anyone is wanting to get another pick.
Minimum will be next years first + ?
Players available to throw in, PM if any interest.

2 thirds is my final offer!

 

[Dagless]

May as well start this thing tonight if Wiz turns up ey!

 

[Dagless]

McKnight/Tate available for pretty much anything (Not saying I'll definitely accept a late pick though).

 

[Exe Gesis]

Do you want to start it tonight?

Let me know, so I can go thru rosters making sure everyone's got 34 kept, and then clicking the "start offline draft" on the league page.

Don't have to click start online draft at all, Wiz can just post his pick and you can do it later if you wanted.

 

[Exe Gesis]

got to do it first so all unkept players move to player pool, so people know who's available to draft.

 

[Mordikai]

May i ask why the Keepers deadline was moved forward a day?

 

[Exe Gesis]

I did it to get a sunday start on the draft, to get the league page turned over to that stage.
People have had weeks to do their 34, and they have done it.

Dont get it mate...

a deadline is a deadline, not sure what warranted your decision to move it forward even if everyone had selected their keepers..

Please notify owners of any such decision before making changes...

 

[Exe Gesis]

pfft please dont get a bee in your bonnet next time.

Ha! Good come back mate... well done
