You also shouldn't only give still alive teams benefits to improve.

Let's say a non-playoff team loses a player to injury. Why should they have no chance to get his possible keeper replacement while better teams would?

I would be pissed if I lose a keeper and have no recourse to replace him.

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

  - 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
