| We have a full League with 12 managers. Please welcome Craig and | |
| LD to the league, as they will be co managing a team together. | |
| Also, please welcome Eric (Springfield Chiefs) as he will be | |
| assisting as a Assisting Commish. Welcome all to the 2024 FSCEN | |
| NFL Contract League!!! | |
| Below is the team spreadsheet in google if you need to look at | |
| your rosters. You should still be able to view it, if not let me | |
| know and I can invite you again. | |
| https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1KuonQ4GI06uNwVPVntYVSv6tAJ8355tM9xo2aSa… | |
| Below is the schedule for the league written in pencil. If there | |
| needs to be a change down the road, I will let you know. We | |
| start things rolling on Sundays at 8AM CST. | |
| Step 1 July 14 Entry Fee due | |
| Step 2 July 28 Cuts and One Extension due | |
| Step 3 August 4 Trading opens | |
| Step 4 August 11 Rookie draft | |
| Step 5 August 18 Regular NFL draft | |
| Step 6 Dead period after drafts for a few days to get rosters | |
| set, TBD | |
| Step 7 September 1 WW opens (projected) | |
| Step 8 September 5 first game of the NFL on TNF | |
| I will post when a "step" begins and ends on the "Commish | |
| Notess" on Yahoo and email you as well. Be sure to check your | |
| junk mail folder for emails from Yahoo and if you get Yahoo | |
| emails in your junk email, you will have to select those emails | |
| as NOT JUNK so you can get future emails. Make sure you have | |
| your best email entered on your team settings and select Yes to | |
| all options Yahoo allows. | |
| Also, be sure to the below website and post any cuts and your | |
| one extension in your war room on the forum. I can work on | |
| getting the Google Sheets updated. Updating the google sheets | |
| and the yahoo team pages is extremely time consuming so I would | |
| like to work on it a little at a time, instead of getting | |
| everything in the same week. My team is basically finalized now | |
| so it can be done early. If a player retires or gets hurt after | |
| you post cuts and your extension, I will allow you to make | |
| changes up to the extension due date of July 28. Remember, | |
| contracts that expire in 2024 can be dropped now for no penalty. | |
| https://2019fscenauctiondraft.createaforum.com/index.php | |
| Below is the Constitution I am always updating for you to look | |
| at and read. We only have 4 IR spots and they can be used on | |
| players on IR and designated as OUT (if yahoo allows you to put | |
| a player on IR, it's a legal use of IR). | |
| https://docs.google.com/document/d/1dpni-WxClV4_1R2kh7gDPQKkXAjJoTAzMdwv6zLcHE4… | |
| I will get Leaguesafe up and running and you should be getting | |
| an email from League safe about paying for our league fee. It | |
| will be cheaper to pay leaguesafe early. I will allow all | |
| payment options one week prior to the payment deadline that will | |
| open up credit card, debit card payments, etc. | |
| I think that is all for now. If you have any questions or see a | |
| mistake somewhere, email me and I will try to handle as soon as | |
| I can. | |
| Have a good summer. Stay safe!! Welcome back to the league and | |
| good luck. | |
| PS Please get your cuts and extensions in sooner rather than | |
| later so I can get to work. AND we are still looking for a | |
| replacement manager for one team in the auction league. If you | |
| are not in the Auction league or know someone that would be | |
| interested in taking over a team that has CMC, email me and I | |
| can forward the details. | |

| Hi everyone, | |
| We are considering changing how the draft works for the 2025 | |
| season and we want everyone's opinion on their preference. The | |
| reason behind considering the change is as follows: Based on | |
| how our contracts work, there is often a very large drop in | |
| value between the first few picks and the rest of the draft. | |
| Giving the same team the 1.1 in both drafts leads to a major | |
| advantage. For example, in 2022 1.1 was able to draft CMC and | |
| Breece Hall. Contrast that with the 1.6 were the value dropped | |
| to Sutton and Jameson Williams. | |
| We came up with a few options to mitigate this and wanted to lay | |
| them out here and get everyone's thoughts. | |
| 1. Combine the rookie and regular draft into 1 draft. if you | |
| take a rookie in the draft, they get a rookie contract. If you | |
| draft a returning player then you can decide how to contract | |
| them as we do now. With this model you could take as many or as | |
| few rookies as you would like. We could cap the rookies that | |
| are picked in this option to three using 4 year contracts on | |
| them and then still allow managers to draft rookies, but would | |
| have to assign on of their 2 or 3 year contracts on them instead | |
| of a 4 year. | |
| 2. This one takes a bit more explanation, but is relatively | |
| simple once explained. With this option we would have a | |
| pre-draft sometime in the offseason to select the order of the | |
| two drafts. The person who picks first could decide whether | |
| they wanted 1.1 in the rookie draft or the regular draft. So | |
| for the 2024 draft, VA league winners would have the first | |
| choice and could either select the 1.1/2.1/3.1 rookie or the | |
| first spot in the regular draft. If VA took the 1.1 rookie | |
| spot, then the next person (in this case NY Vod Kanonkers) would | |
| go next and could select either 1.2/2.2/3.2 rookie picks or | |
| first slot in the regular draft. If they took 1.1 regular, | |
| then, as the 3rd pick in the pre-draft, BCB would have the | |
| choice of either 1.2/2.2/3.2 rookie or 1.2 regular and so on. | |
| The only caveat would be that you had to end the 2 round | |
| pre-draft with one pick from each draft, so if you took a rookie | |
| pick in the first round of the pre-draft, you would have to take | |
| a regular pick in the 2nd round. | |
| 3. Another solution could be to have the draft order , like we | |
| use now, for the rookie draft, then reverse the 6 to 1 picks for | |
| the main draft. This will allow the bottom 6 teams to still | |
| have the first 6 picks. | |
| Rookie 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11,12 | |
| Main 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 | |
| 4. Keep things as is. | |
| Let us know what you all think, post your reply here to the | |
| forum and then we will take a vote to see where everyone stands. | |
| Matt | |

| I want to point out one thing before voting...this year's main | |
| draft is particularly sparse for a clear reason. four years ago | |
| we had one season in which the rookie contracts were changed | |
| from 4 to 5 years. That change only lasted for one season. The | |
| result is this year there are no expiring rookie contracts. | |
| However, next year there will be two classes of expiring rookie | |
| contracts, so next year's main draft will be relatively stacked. | |
| That being said, I vote for option one that combines the rookie | |
| and main drafts. I am in a league that did this and it worked | |
| out great. Some teams that are in "win-now" mode were able to | |
| go heavy on vets and teams building for the future could get | |
| more rookies. I would suggest that the first 36 rookie to be | |
| picked get 4-year contracts, and no more. That way it would be | |
| the same number of rookies that could be on those longer | |
| contracts. After that, I think it would be fine if players were | |
| able to use their 3- or 2- year contracts on rookies. | |
| There is one problem with switching to a new system next season. | |
| I have already traded for Springfield Chief's first round | |
| rookie pick for next season. It if not clear what that would be | |
| if we combine the two drafts, or choose another of the new | |
| options. For this reason, and the fact that next year's main | |
| draft will have plenty of talent available, I think we should | |
| implement any new draft system starting in 2026. | |

| I would be happy with either option 1 or 2. Llama, thanks for | |
| pointing out about the issue with starting next year, I agree | |
| that any change would have to be implemented in 2026 since some | |
| 2025 picks have already been traded and it would affect those | |
| values. | |
| Anyone else have any thoughts? | |

| I really like option 1 and agree it should be out another year | |
| especially since next years regular draft will be stacked. | |
| Seems like a great fix | |

| I would vote for option 1 as well as holding off til 2026 based | |
| on Llamas explanation. | |

| #1 seems easiest and clean to implement. Agree with waiting | |
| until 2026. | |

| If we are taking a formal vote, mine would be #1 as well. So | |
| far we have 6 votes: | |
| #1 - 5 votes | |
| #2 - 1 vote | |
| #3 -0 votes | |
| #4 - 0 votes | |
| Yet to vote: Shueyville, BCB, Miami, VA, Chiefs, Boston | |

| I�m good with 1 or 3 | |
| If it�s 1 I�d like to see a limit of 3 rookie contracts for each | |
| team. They can still use their other contracts on extra rookies | |
| (which we do still allow now too). | |
| I also understand how changing to 1 could have a big effect on | |
| trading of future picks so implementing it in 2026 would | |
| probably be best. | |
