I love this league and it’s the only one I participate in these days so I’m excited for these changes you want to roll out JP! Here’s to bigger and better things for the league.

We should start gearing things up in the next couple of weeks, so stay tuned...

Another league I am in just moved to a new source to handle fees and payouts, LeagueSafe.

I'll look into it. Payments are made via credit/debit or eChecks. It is free and doesn't have service charges. I pretty sure you can set up automated payouts based upon the criteria you pointed out. The money stays in their "safe" so it would never be in my pocket ... until I win it in the end.

That's what pays for the service. They get interest, most likely.

JP, are you going to go ahead and activate the 2020 league site? I want to get it set up with LeagueSafe to collect fees and automate payouts at the end of the year. It is a free service for fantasy leagues and keeps the money out of private hands. I know we're only talking a total of $80, but it worked great for a 48 team, $30 entry league I'm in with complex payouts.

I'll post the LeagueSafe payment link here when I get it set up and we're ready to collect.

JP, you said you and Kevin discussed a ten player league. We currently have only eight. Might I suggest that if we can wrangle up two more owners that the existing owners make all of their drops to get to the proposed keeper requirements and then have an off-site snake draft with the two new owners, based upon a random draw to see who goes first, to allow them to also reach the same keeper requirements. As you mentioned, under this scenario one will get either Kamara or Michael Thomas.

Those keeper requirements were:

three on offense, three on defense, AND one current Saint on offense and one on defense

The commish could then add those selected players to the new owner's rosters and we could proceed with an on-site draft to complete the rosters.

That draft could either be randomly generated order or based upon last year's final standings in reverse order with some sort of insertion methodology for the two new owners into the draft flow.
