OFFICIAL
RULES
THE
DRAFT
Date
of Draft: Tuesday August 29, 2000
Time:6:30
Place: Greg Christophell’s house..
Each
franchise will draft the following:
3
– Quarterbacks (individual)
6
– Running Backs
6
– Wide Receivers/Tight Ends
2
– Kickers
2
– Defense/Special Reams
2
- Reserve players (note: reserve players can not be selected until
above complete roster is filled)
Remember
when you draft a "Defensive Team" you are also selecting
the "Special "Teams" for that particular NFL team,
giving you potential points whenever your selected team’s
defense or special teams is on the field.
The
makeup`ster remains the same throughout the season. You do not have
to maintain any reserve players but you must always have 3QB, 6RB,
6REC, 2K, and 2 Defense.
A
reserve player can be activated at any time without a fee and be
played the same week.
Any
activated reserve player must fit into the franchise’s main
roster, meaning if you activate a reserve quarterback, you must drop,
trade or de-activate (drop to reserves) an existing quarterback.
There
is a 10.00 transaction fee for every trade or free agent acquisition.
The
money collected for above will be dispursed to the total point
leader after 17 weeks
ROSTER
Rosters
are due each week by midnight Thursday. Preferred method is by
E-mail or phone. E-mail address is [email protected].
Phone # 660-2120. If you fail to submit a roster at any time, the
previously weeks roster will be used. If you fail to submit a roster
for thee weeks in a row, I’ll take it that you lost interest and
all your monies will be forfeited and your roster will very likely be
auctioned off. Each week your submitted roster must include the following:
1
– Quarterback
3
– Running Back
3
– Wide receivers
1
– Kicker
1
– Defense/Special Team
Players
may only be used in the position they were drafted in. Example: A
player drafted and listed on your franchise roster as a quarterback
may only be substituted into the quarterback position.
Points
are calculated each week by the performance of the players submitted
on your weekly roster. It is your job to let me know if you disagree
with the weekly points calculated. Most of you know how accurate the
software is

Transaction rules
Any player not originally drafted may be picked up by
any franchise. The name/position /NFL team of the desired player must
be submitted with your weekly roster. The team with the lowest point
total going into any week has the rights to first pick only. The team
with the next lowest point total has the right to the next pick up
and so on. If any team desires more than one player, the order is
repeated as many times as necessary. If you are granted a new player
then you must drop one from your existing roster. No team may pick up
a player the same week that he is dropped. Players acquired via
waiver wire are activated immediately and can play the same week.
