PLAYOFF SEEDING:
The Division winners will be seeded 1-2-3 by record. The remaining teams will be seeded 4-8 by points scored. Winning the division is crucial, as you will play lower scoring teams in the playoffs

WEEK 1

Obviously, there are more pressing issues right now then fantasy football. To that, I need a mental break from the
mayhem.

Being that this is a new draft year, I forgot the FA priority is done by points scored for the first week, then by record. It
is not fare to punish or reward FA by draft order since the order was random.

In addition to the F.A. pickups, there is a IR list. Teams with players being placed on IR will get priority over general
F.A. pickups when these criteria are met:

1) You are replacing same position player (ie: RB for a RB)

2) The teams are using their IR move the same week the player is eligible for the IR

3) Players to be eligible for IR must be listed by the NFL (I use USA Todays list) as Doubtful or worse. Once that player
is upgraded, a roster move must be made the same week. If the pwner does not make the move, the automatic move is
to replace the picked up player .

CONTRACTS: We will be protecting (by year) 3,3, and 4. Most do not like protecting 5 in the last year and most want
more then 2 in the first year. So we worked out the 3, 3 and 4. All contracts are for the full 3 years, you can drop a
contract at the draft, but it will cost $5. By the 3rd week lineups, your protected players are due.

FREE AGENTS: The F.A. priority is based on record (worst to first) after the 2nd week. This week, it will be based on
points scored. It is a draft type pickup, when it is your turn, you get the first player available on your list. When it is
your turn again, you get the next player still available on your list and so on. F.A pick ups will be Thursday night by 7
PM. I will try to get out the results Friday.

LINEUPS: Need to be in by 1 hour prior to the first game. They can be submitted from your team page (preferred),
straight email, or phone. Your lineup will rollover to the following week, if you don't have changes, you do not need to
resubmit. If you do call in your lineups, you only need to leave your changes, the rest of the lineup will rollover from
the previous week. When you submit your lineup from your team page, a copy is emailed to your opponant and the
commish, but the page will not auto update, I need to change the line up page manually.

WEEK 4

The protected players have been published. Some teams did not submit their lists, as I noted last week, for those teams, I
protected the first 3 players drafted. If by chance, I have missed your list, please show me and I will correct the error. I
cannot just allow adjustments, as there are a few teams who already want or need to make adjustments based on injuries.
Note on trading protected players. If you trade away a protected player and receive a NON protected player. You may
then add a player from you roster to your protected list. The team who received the extra protected player, can only
drop one of the 4 protected contracts, you cannot assign it to someone else.

The New Dr Z's Power Rankings are up and running. You can check them here! or at the "Rankings" header above.
More to come later. Check back soon.

WEEK 6

Remember, there is a Thursday night game this week. FA pickups will be due WEDNESDAY by 7:00 pm.

NOTE: Your lineups transfer from week to week. If you have a player already in your lineup who is playing Thursday
night, he is in your lineup unless you tell me to remove that player before 6 pm Thursday night. You will not be allowed
to take that player out on Sunday. If you want a Thursday player in your lineup, and he is NOT already in there, you
must inform me no later then 1 hour prior to game time. Any players not playing in Thursdays game are due by 12
Sunday.
