2024 CCS Fantasy Keeper League - Season 4

[Starion]

Welcome back all!! Congrats to Dentfan who took the title last season, and to Knoxville who took 2nd. My girlfriend took her inherited keepers to the bronze even!

It appears that I was able to automatically renew the league and each of your teams. You should have received an email from Yahoo as well.

Please confirm here or by PM that you're returning . If NOT, please confirm as well so I can find a replacement owner for your team.

* Same rules, setup, & scoring, but here & now is the time to make any suggestions to the league.
** note that I'm also likely creating a new 10 team $100 deeper roster 5 keeper league. PM me if interested.


Please LMK if you change your team name on Yahoo (some of you really should - looking at you @knoxville7 , @Moses Moreno , & @WestCoastBearsFan ) So far...



$50 for the season via Venmo (preferred) or Zelle. Same payouts as before: $400 for first, $150 for 2nd, $50 for 3rd. Also, LMK when you've sent payment and please include a note with the payment saying who you are (CCS Name / Team name!!) since some of you have other unknown emails or using spousal accts.

Keeper Cost: Same as before - up to 3 keepers, at one round higher than last year's cost.

• You can look up last year's draft in Yahoo & see where you drafted or picked up guys who ended the season on your roster. Post in the thread who you plan to keep (at one round higher than last year.
• UDFAs will count as your last pick, or last two picks if 2, etc.
• You cannot keep your First Rd pick from last year. You can keep your 2nd Rd pick from last year but it'll cost you your 1st Rd. pick.
• There are some top tier players that Yahoo designates as "undroppable", who if dropped when ruled out for season-ending injury, can't then be picked up off waivers late in the season and kept as last pick the following year. See last year's 2023 season for that discussion over Cooper Kupp. *edit - see below or Yahoo's Keeper value list.

Looking forward to another year!!

raheem mostert - took him in the 14th round last year...hes my 13th rounder this year
devonta smith - took him in round 9 last year...hes my 8th rounder this year

 

[mceownr22]

Confirming im in!

 

[BNB]

I'm in!


Keepers:

Rashee Rice: Drafted in the 12th round last season

Dalton Kincaid: Drafted in the 10th round last season.

 

[Moses Moreno]

I'm in.

Keepers:
Puca (UDFA)
Amon-Ra St. Brown (2023 pick - Round 5, Pick 12)

Question about my last keeper - you mentioned the Cooper Kupp rule from last year, I 100% picked up Mark Andrews for this reason but he's not the undroppable criteria you mentioned. I'm deciding between him and Mike Evans but would just appreciate clarification on his draft value.

Thanks!

Ok studmuffin stop showing off

 

[Hawkeye OG]

I will play if a spot opens. If multiple spots open I call dibs on looking at each team first

 

[knoxville7]

Ok studmuffin stop showing off

Getting Mostert near the end of the draft last year was such a steal

Yeah, this needs to be clarified. I thought if someone dropped a guy they drafted (even if he wasn't injured), and someone else picked him up, that guy held his draft value? For example, if I draft someone in round 6 and then drop him a few weeks later for reasons other than injury (or even a non-season ending injury), and then someone else picks him up, and they decide to keep him. It doesn't seem to make sense to keep him for their last pick, because they technically weren't an UDFA. They were taken in the 6th, so I feel like it's right to lose your 5th.

@Starion

That is how he's implementing it, thought I could steal Andrews for nothing but that's fair TBH.

Evans is probably the better value for me anyway but I wanted clarification before making the decision.

 

[WestCoastBearsFan]

I’m in. My keepers are Stroud (UDFA) and Pacheco (13.11)

@Starion

BNB is correct as I understand it. Yahoo makes it pretty clear by showing the draft round value of our rosters at the end of last year. I think we pretty much go with what Yahoo has it listed as.

For ex - I'm keeping Achane in the 10th, as he's showing as an 11th Rd. pick last draft, even though I got him off Waivers. Note that I also drafted J Warren in the 11th, and both still show as 11th Rd. values*.



For Moses' regarding M. Andrews: Same as with Achane, Yahoo kept his original draft value, as Rd. 2, so he'd cost a 1st if you want to keep him now. (I think I drafted & dropped him TBH ).
-->This same situation should've been the case last year with Kupp, but we didn't have the prior year rosters & draft values on Yahoo because I had to reboot the league to be new commish.



*Man, that sucked having Jefferson go down & Olave totally underutilized last year. Achane out also hurt for a spell.
Still deciding on my 3.

 

[Starion]

Note that you can keep up to 3 from last draft. A few of you only asked for 2.

I've also only kept 2 in prior seasons when I didn't see the value. All good...more for the draft pool!


Hawkeye OG - you're first on the list if a team goes unclaimed.

 

[ijustposthere]

I'm in

 

[ijustposthere]

Honestly, you shouldn't have to do anything for keepers, thought it did it on it's own. But I'll send mine to you. Last year I can keep Etienne

Yes, you can select your own keepers within your team settings. Helps to send to me also to make sure it's all right & proper before draft day, and for all to see.

Keeper deadline is Aug 20th.

================================================================================================

Speaking of, I arbitrarily picked Sunday Aug 25 @10:00pm EDT for our live draft, based on last year. Please speak up if this doesn't work for you and offer alts.
