It really doesnt matter now... it's the ruling that should have been made then. It's all I really want you to say.
You also love to poll in ways that gives your opinion a clear voice, and the counter argument a fragmented voice. This isn't the first poll where myself, Masked, and I assume others are left scratching our head.

Why would I say something that I know not to be true....it's an off-season issue, that means deal with it in the off-season....I'm a task-oriented person and I don't see doing things before they need be done, so why come out and say something that has zero truth to it??

I also give the option in any vote for a write-in.....and any good write in vote I'm sure has the chance to gain steam and make itself happen just as easily as any of the other options.....not to mention if it's "so confusing".... ASK and it can be clarified....between me Clown, Brian and Laflamme there's plenty of "Scott to English" translators who can interpret

I can't not even begin to express the frustration I have arguing with you. You just repeat yourself constantly ignoring the counter point.

I'm making a new poll:


Does Crasher argue points well:

1) No
2) In respect to the 2011 season, about 2012 fantasy, or on good whiskey, or proper goalie positioning, yes
3) I hate Crasher no matter what

between me Clown, Brian and Laflamme

Oh yes, another year of that. How could I forget

LASTLY: To be clear... the new rule is, if a player is drafted, AT ALL, he will maintain his draft position. (Manning was not a waiver pickup, he cleared waivers and was a free agent pickup)


So only truly, undrafted players get to be 15th round keepers?

So wait a minute, all this back and forth for a long time now, and Ayl is gonna keep Arian Foster the entire time anyway???

I'll believe that as much as Zach Pari$e and $uter didn't orchestrate their move to Minnesota months on advance...

You HAD to be planning to protect Manning in the 15th round..

For the record, I voted for NO keepers and I picked Cam Netwon in the 14th round...just an FYI....

Only thing missing from this epic banter is Manta....every banter is a little better with more Manta

I entertained keeping Manning... and honestly, would be thinking about it a lot up until I hit post.

If I had Manning at 15th, I'd likely try (and fail) to trade my way to the top 3... so in all likelihood would have kept Foster.

I still would very much like the choice, and think I should have the choice given the lack of a ruling last season. Butttttttt, I'm not getting into that.
I also very much love to argue. /shocking

[NJDevs4978]

Well here are the new and final keeper values for last year (bolded the ones that got changed from a 15, like Manning and others who got dropped then picked back up by the same team or another team). Most of the changes are minor, really. Just check your roster before keepers get locked to make sure I didn't overlook anything.

The ones with a strikethrough are ineligible to be kept because they were the prior season's keepers. I also struck through Tomlinson cause he retired anyway

Wow. I think my best candidates for keepers are Lance Moore and Andy Dalton.

[NJDevs4978]

Well you could always elect not to choose a keeper at all, though everyone's used it on someone so far.

True... but I think Lance Moore holds more value than a 15th... so it would make sense to keep him rather than draft him late as WR 3/4... it at least give you a jump on your favorite kicker, etc (finishing in r14 rather than r15)

[NJDevs4978]

Lance Moore's a 10th round keeper value...he might actually be drafted 'after' that or in that vicinity, maybe but Saints receivers other than Graham are always a crapshoot week to week and Moore has problems staying healthy. Dalton's a 15th round value, if I were RSC I'd probably just use the keeper on him and get decent value on your backup QB.

Ouch! My condolences. So I assume you're not having any keepers then.

Yeah, that's most likely what I'm going to do. Only thing about that I'm not crazy about is the fact that it almost eliminates QBs from teams he shares a bye with. But I'd rather work around that than deal with Drew Brees' generosity with the football, I think.

[Masked Fan]

Who was my keeper last season? Britt? or Thomas and I dropped him??
