@Proshares  ..........

I said this last year, but I think we should put some money down for the fantasy league this year.  Also, I still wholeheartedly believe that in a keeper league that you are trading draft picks in, it is completely illogical to make the draft order serpentine.  Since I mentioned it two years in a row right before our draft, I figure it would be wise to bring it up now so we can start a discussion.

I have like 12 extra early draft picks this year, so tread lightly.

Thanks JRS.

There is no need to tread anything. When you have draft orders determined by The results of the previous season, it makes zero logical sense to do serpentine order. Zero. The point of serpentine drafts is to attempt to even the playing field for people drafting at the beginning of the round and the end of the round.

When you are using the reverse order of the previous years standings and teams have keepers, the assumption is the champion picks last because he has the besty team. Having the team that finished in last place picking first is already the attempt to even the playing field. Why do you need to try to even out the picks? The champion should pick last in every round, because he is the champ....and should be at a disadvantage. Its no different than the real life drafts.

Serpentine orders are for seasonal redrafts or the first year of a keeper league. Period.

Agreed dland. Although cp owns damn near every pick I have. I need to make some pre draft trades.

We use Yahoo for our NT Keeper league.  My other keeper league is CBS, but that costs a lot of money in comparison to Yahoo's free platform.

[johnnyredstorm]

Keep Dozier or Odor?

I've got Shelby Miller, Carlos Martinez and Yu Darvish available if you're talking about the NT Keeper. Just looking to get a draft pick.

I'll probably hit you up. I'm keeping one of those 2B's along with Kris Bryant, Sano, Corey Seager and Felix. Nice youthful core.
