    OK, legit question for the folks here...

    I've been invited into a nasty, dirty, disgusting situation in a keeper league. Debating if I join or not because the deck is more stacked against me than anything I've ever seen. I have 2 questions, but let me lay out the shitty scenario...

    Keeper league. If you keep a guy, you burn the pick in the round you selected him.
    2 Keepers.
    You can trade future picks.

    The guy I would inherit the team from traded his picks in rounds 1, 2, 3 & 7 this year during last season. So I don't have picks in those rounds.
    Because the guy traded those picks, I can't keep those players either.

    I negotiated a supplemental pick at the end of the 3rd round IF I only keep one guy.

    The roster of keepers I would inherit has 2 guys who intrigue me as keepers, but I'm caught because I don't have a pick OR keepers from the top 3 rounds. Or the 7th.

    I could keep Tony Romo in the 8th round. DO I DO IT?

    I could keep Jordan Matthews in the 10th round. DO I DO IT?

    I've decided I'll only keep one of them; I need a pick in the top 3 rounds to maintain my sanity. So the question is this: Which is the better value in a keeper league? Matthews in Philly or Romo?

    Help me out boys... it's a big money buy in and I'm not sure I can stomach the headaches of having a roster built without top picks.

    (as an aside - there are weekly cash payouts, so there is a chance I make a little money during the season without winning the whole thing, which is why I'm considering buying into a keeper league with so many handicaps)

    Tab Id keep Mathews if you can replace Romo with a decent option.


    @Omen thank you for staying. I deleted a massive amount of threads because it looked like one of our "fight club" threads, and it was just plain wrong all the way around. I anit faulting either guy, if its anyone's fault it was mine for not giving the newbies a heads up about the GIF clan.

    The thought crossed my mind because yes ward is my buddy we have been here since 2004-2005 and we are rough around the edges and we don't hold back if push comes to shove.

    I'll second that, we're making decent progress now. Can't wait for the season to start.

    I'm of the opinion the rosters should have stayed where they were at numbers-wise, or at least should unless we actually get into a time crunch up against the start of the season, which doesn't seem like it'll be an issue. Maybe if it's actually a concern, keep them as is (shallow) through the draft, and then add 4 or or however many spots to be filled by FAB? Half the fun of a dynasty IMO are the deep rosters.

    rosters can build overtime, also most leagues are not 14 teams, which makes a huge difference in available player pool if you do the math, to hard for me but ya... as of right now our bench is pretty darn deep.

    and this is a perfect dovetail into my next question.. to charge or not to charge for waiver wire transactions - 1 dollar per waiver wire transaction -
