DROPS AND PICKUPS

EACH TEAM is allowed 3 pickups per season. EACH player picked up must be of the "same" position as the one that was dropped!

***YOU CANNOT PICK A PLAYER UP FROM A ELLIMINATED TEAM WHEN YOUR IN THE PLAYOFFS ! ALL PICK UPS AND DROPS MUST BE POSTED ON THE MESSAGE BOARD...If an owner drops a player and another wants to pick him up you must do so on the board and it is 1st come 1st served.... SORRY NO "Ooops I did not mean to pick him up ! If you post it it counts!

INJURED RESERVED LIST

You may place a player on the I.R and pick up a replacement player of the same position if that player is listed as QUESTIONABLE, DOUBTFULL or OUT on GAME DAY! YOU CANNOT MAKE AN I.R. MOVE FOR A PLAYER LISTED AS PROBABLE.
EACH TEAM IS ONLY ALLOWED 3 I.R. MOVES FOR THE SEASON so use them wisely!
You can make an I.R move anytime during the year including playoffs! A player may stay on the I.R for up to 2 weeks. After the 2 weeks it's burn a pick up and drop your injured player and pick up your replacement player....Or wait for that player to get healthy.."SIMPLE" A player on the I.R during a BYE week does not count as 1 of the 2 weeks - However if the replacement player has a bye week during that time it counts

TRADES

All trades are free and "NO" approval is needed! You make a dumb trade it's your problem. There will be NO trades made after week 10. If the Commissioners feel that there is collusion those teams will be sent to the graveyard. If you don't like a trade feel free to rag that person and give them your thoughts on the board or even counter offer!! ( maybe you can change their mind). There will be NO 2 for 1 trades but you may use a pickup as part of a trade. You MAY trade your draft position with another owner. Any position can be traded for any position..Qb's can be traded for kickers and Wr's for RB's and Franchise for Wr's etc.etc.
IF YOU MAKE A TRADE ONE OF THE OWNERS MUST POST THE TRADE ON THE BOARD OR CALL IT IN A COMMISIONER BEFORE ITS OFFICIAL. If you bust a trade on game day and time is an issue because it's 12:55, you can always send an email because it has the time of day on it! If a commissioner is involved in the trade he may post it or send an email to an owner who is NOT involved in the trade.
