I drafted primarily of off Fantasy Pros rankings and they gave my draft an A+. I didn't use Yahoo's and they gave me a D-. I'm guessing reality is somewhere in between...

The draft recap is for entertainment only. 8-)

I was picked to finish last a couple of years ago and got some lucky bounces to end up ok.

Just some info for the new guys. We do have an IR slot for injured or suspended players. If you move a player there it opens up another roster bench spot. After the player is healthy or returns you will need to make another move. You can't carry healthy or active players on the IR.

Good Luck everyone!

I think I have been getting high draft grades year after year and yet I have done diddly squat year after year. So, I really wouldn't worry about it.

Oh yea, Yahoo gave me an A- for my draft and projected me to finish first place. HA... :roll2:

I don't think it works that way. You need to move a player already on the roster to IR. You can't bring a injured or suspended player directly to IR from waivers.

Once you bring the player on your roster in a bench spot, then you can move the player to IR if he's eligible. Again, once the player is healthy or off suspension you will need to make another move. That player locks up moves when healthy.

I hope this helps. Although, this will be the last time I give out secrets to the enemy. :D

I figured you had to drop somebody to pick up an "IR eligible" player, then put the guy on IR and pick up another. The only problem with that is.....if you release a player you can't pick him back up for a few days. So you're probably looking at 2 new players on and one gone. Unless I have that wrong. And that designation Waivers 9/7 is what time? Midnight PST?

Thought i could maybe grab someone currently on IR without dropping anybody but guess that wouldn't work. No worry, i'm sure my roster will start falling apart soon enough and i can make some moves then...
