*These rules are based on a 12-team league. They will be amended once the exact number of teams is determined.

 

 

I. Overview

 

The league will consist of an even number of teams from 6 to 16 owners. There will be 13-14 weeks of the regular season followed by 2-3 weeks of playoffs. Each owner will select a roster of 16 players, and can make roster adjustments by signing free agents or trading with other owners. The league champion will be determined by a playoff at the end of the season. Any rule not covered in this rule sheet may be brought up for a vote.

The snake order draft will continue through the end of the draft. Draft order can be traded before the draft begins, but players may not be traded until the draft is over.

After week 10, there will be no trades. All trades are subject to a three-man trade committee vote.

 

VII. Player Pickups

 

A. Unrestricted Free Agents

Players not on any roster are considered unrestricted free agents. A team may add any unrestricted free agent at any time during the regular season. Free agents are considered first-come first-served additions. No additions may be made once the Fantasy Playoffs begin.

B. Waivers

Players that are released are considered ‘on waivers’ until the following week. A team may claim a player on waivers, however, if multiple teams claim a player, then the team that is highest on the waiver order will be awarded that player. Once a team is awarded a waived player, they will fall to the end of the list for waiver order. CBS Sportsline.com will track the waiver wire order.
