    Should Our Draft Have Been Rescheduled?

    Tend to agree, but he ramped up the rhetoric after last night's Brady performance.
  3. I am the commissioner of our league. Every year, our league holds its draft on the last Monday of August (in between weeks 3 and 4 of the preseason). The day before the draft, one league member suggested that the draft be moved until after the Tom Brady court decision had been issued. (It was known that the decision was coming some time that week, and it eventually came on Wednesday or Thursday.) I refused to move the draft, noting that it is held at the same time every year, and every year there are suspensions pending (Ray Rice, Josh Gordon, etc.). Tom Brady was drafted in the 10th round of our draft. A few days later, his suspension is lifted, and the guy that drafted him got a steal. The guy that asked me to move the draft is now furious. My position is that everyone had the same information at the draft. Anyone could have taken a chance on Brady - it all depends on your risk tolerance. Someone did, and got a steal. But 11 other teams had 9 or 10 chances to draft him before he was taken. What do you think? Should I have moved the draft?

    Fantasy Etiquette Question

    Wow, this has started to wax really philosophical. This isn't an online league with strangers where we don't know each other. This is a league of old college buddies. But every year he asks me who he should keep. And then makes fun of those of us who do prepare for the draft.

    He's actually my best friend. But again, I don't think he should rely on someone else in a money league to tell him who to keep. If he asked me a direct question about Miller, I would have honestly answered that I thought he was a good keeper. You have to at least do enough homework to know who you should be considering.

    It is for money. The part about doing his own homework or splitting the winnings is exactly what the other guy who was asked told him.

    Fantasy Etiquette Question

    OK, so here's what actually happened. We are allowed two keepers in our league. Guy calls me and another guy up and asks what we think about John Brown as a keeper - he'd have to give up a 9th round pick. I tell him I think Brown is a decent keeper - probably would go 8th in our league, so giving up a 9th is reasonable. He then asks us if we can look at the rest of his roster and tell him if there's anyone else we think would be a good keeper. He's got Lamar Miller on his roster, for whom he'd have to give up a 5th - clear keeper. Neither me nor the other guy say anything. We don't say, "No, there's no one else." We just say nothing. Keeper deadline passes yesterday and now he's pissed we didn't tell him to keep Miller. My feeling has been if someone asks me a pointed question about a particular guy - like he did with Brown - I'll be honest. If he had done that with Miller, I'd have done the same. But to tell me to review his whole roster and tell him who his good keepers are? Is that my job? It would have taken less than 30 seconds to look at any fantasy rankings or ADP on any website to see Miller is probably a 3rd rounder (maybe earlier in a keeper league). Am I wrong? Honestly, tell me if I am. Because he's pitching a fit.

    So, this happened in my league. What do you think. If someone in your league asks you to look over his roster and tell him who you think are his good keepers, what do you do?

    In light of the Jordy Nelson injury, what do y'all think? 12-team league, standard scoring. I have two 9th round picks. I can keep two of the three above. Leave a link and I'll respond to yours.

    12 team league, standard scoring. We can keep two players from last year's roster. Here are my choices. Also relevant, due to a trade, I have two 9th round picks and no 7th round pick. Post a link and I'll respond to yours.
