BF: Being a Keeper League, should rosters really lock upon elimination?

Posted by Buda Fett (aka budice) Dec 13 '15, 13:07

Isnt there an unfair waiver advantage to those making the playoffs?

Responses:

you don't want eliminated teams tying up guys other teams might still need. -- nm - Reagen Dec 13, 13:09 28
- You also shouldn't only give still alive teams benefits to improve. - Will Hunting Dec 13, 13:16 15
  - In that keeper rosters should have locked last week then. -- nm - Will Hunting Dec 13, 13:18 1
    - I'd be OK with that, although that's a bit of a headache. -- nm* - Reagen Dec 13, 13:36
  - but if you are put of the Playofffs, it shouldn't matter -- nm - Emperor Beak Dec 13, 13:17 12
    - 2016 is a real thing - Will Hunting Dec 13, 13:20 10
      - I suggest we vote on it in the off season, but I cant see it passing -- nm - Bacon Dec 13, 13:22 9
        
        What happens if a playoff owner has AP and some team out of the playoffs takes his replacement? BS -- nm* - Bacon Dec 13, 13:23 8
        
        It's standard waivers. - Will Hunting Dec 13, 13:25 6
        
        Standard waivers would be absolute nonsense. The eliminated team would get first dibs on the player. -- nm* - Sith Lord Sexypants Dec 13, 13:26 5
        
        Not if theres a consolation bracket to determine draft order -- nm - budice Dec 13, 13:29 3
        
        As stated by Baron Wasteland below. You already had an advantage. You could have picked up IR players when playoff owners don't have the space to do - Bacon Dec 13, 13:32 1
        
        *ding* also, expanding rosters to 16 or 17 would help prevent this. -- nm - Seven Strongbads Swimming Dec 13, 13:51
        
        What type of magic rules do you think Yahoo offers? - Sith Lord Sexypants Dec 13, 13:31
        
        Ding! -- nm - Bacon Dec 13, 13:28
        
        yup, once eliminated from the playoffs you are done. period. -- nm - Emperor Beak Dec 13, 13:24
    - It would have to be a substantial injury like ACL to make Will's point. - Bacon Dec 13, 13:19
- Right. -- nm - Sith Lord Sexypants Dec 13, 13:12
- Id say process Waivers per norm. Even have a consolation bracket -- nm - budice Dec 13, 13:12 5
  - Keepers is a year round thing. Making rosters an active element. -- nm - budice Dec 13, 13:14 4
    - Put it to a vote. I'd be all for that. -- nm - Sith Lord Sexypants Dec 13, 13:17
    - Honestly? You should have done what Samara did. She started picking up IR players before the playoffs started. -- nm - Bacon Dec 13, 13:15 2
      - I did the same. Re-added Jordy. Would've re-added Benjamin too but was foolishly still trying to win a game. -- nm - Admiral Ackbaron Dec 13, 13:20
      - IE she set her team up for next year, before it was locked. -- nm - Bacon Dec 13, 13:16
- This! If I get an injury I need to be able to get a decent player and not get it taken by the 12 best team that didn't make the playoffs. - Bacon Dec 13, 13:10 3
  - I just avoided this worry. Drooped Lafell and picked up Houston D (Indy next week and Titans the week after) -- nm - Emperor Beak Dec 13, 13:12 2
    - With all the injuries today, there will be needs to get replacements by many. -- nm - Bacon Dec 13, 13:15 1
      - I have the detroit D to drop and pickup and *knock wood* my team has escaped unscathed thus far -- nm - Emperor Beak Dec 13, 13:17
- agreed -- nm - Emperor Beak Dec 13, 13:10
