That clears it up. Thanks boss.
It looks like everyone has their keepers picked before the deadline. That is great. If anyone wants to make any last second changes then they need to do it before midnight tonight.
Also, since there are no strong opinions one way or the other and the "votes" on here were one to one, I am going to leave the extra IR spot for this year. If someone has a strong opposition to it, let me know soon. It has to be changed before we start the draft.
Keepers fixed. Thanks

There is one week until our slow draft starts.
To make it easier for everyone to keep to the position limits, I thought I would point out those that were close at certain positions.
Limits Reached:
Fernandito (Gilead Brewery), thegunslinger41 (Derry's Rejects), DoctorZauis (Forbidden Zone), Kent (death by snu snu), and SkippyD023 (Equus Asinus) all have three D/Sts.
Jason (Blaine the Pain Train) and Derry's Rejects have three Kickers.
Within one of a limit:
Team: Position Limits Almost Reached
Garrell's Raiders: QB & WR
The Big CoughlinHunters (Still Servant): QB
Derry's Rejects: QB
As you can see, it is mostly at QB but there are a couple other positions that people should watch when drafting. Many are within one of the D/ST and K limits but I am not going to list those since most likely no one will draft multiple D/STs or Ks. There are also several within two of a limit who could technically go past a limit if they draft three of that position so watch even if you aren't on this list.
I will create the draft thread on the ESPN site this week before the draft starts. I will include the draft rules as well but will mention this one now: Remember to post all draft picks on the ESPN thread so that everyone can see them.
Our three-round, rookie/free agent draft starts on August 1st. It will be an offline, slow draft so each member will have 24 hours from the time the last person picked to make their selection. Use the message thread I created on the ESPN page to submit your draft picks. Once the draft starts, I will post update messages periodically, since I can no longer update the original message (unless that changed back since last year.)
Please make sure to check the ESPN thread at least once a day to prevent missing your pick. If someone misses their window, the next person can jump them. Let's avoid that. Also, look at your roster and know the position limit rules (in league settings). If you have the max at a position, you can not draft a player from that position.
The draft starts this Sunday. Please use the time to prepare.
Here is the overall draft order:
1. Garrell's Raiders, 4-10, 1272
2. Walkin' Dudes, 4-10, 1350

I'm looking to move up to 3.

Add me on Letterboxd: https://www.letterboxd.com/MovieMike80/
If you are looking to trade him send him an email through the ESPN league page. He doesn't log in here very often.
Are you looking to get Chase?
When August 1st gets here and you can make your official pick, please post it on the ESPN message board thread that I started on our league page.
Also, if we can all list the name, team, and position of the players drafted that would be best. Obviously I know who you mean but it will be better as we get further in the draft.
Trevor Lawrence, QB. Jacksonville Jaguars
Hehe. Now I can just copy and paste on the 1st

I hope the player I want is still available at 5...
After evaluating my team, I need as many new players as possible. The one thing I have is QBs.
If anyone is interested in either Dak Prescott or Lamar Jackson, I would trade one of them to you if you swapped a first-round pick for my third-round pick. To make it where we still have 25 players each, you could throw in the worst player left on your roster.
Send me a message if you are interested.
The draft has started! Let's get this thing going!
Everyone has up to 24 hours after the previous person picks but it would be better if you didn't take the full time.

Disease, Disease
Spreading the disease
With some help from Captain Trips
He'll bring the world down to his knees
Power, yes Power
He'll show them all his power
It pulses through his ice cold blood
A whole world to devour
He's seeing, He's calling
His legacy, He's spawning
He's coming, corrupting
Among the living
Murder, Murder
Commit cold blooded murder
Like Nazis during World War Two
They only follow orders
Hatred, Hatred
A crucifix is your bed
Once he turns his eye on you
You'd be better off dead
He's seeing, He's calling
His legacy, He's spawning
He's coming, corrupting
Among the living
I am the walkin' dude
I can see all the world
Twist your minds with fear
I'm the man with power
Among the living
Follow me or die
Man, fights Man
Divided they can't stand
United they can battle back
And make him force his hand
Fear, yes Fear
His end is growing near
He didn't count on man's good faith
And their will to persevere
He's seeing, He's calling
His legacy, He's spawning
He's coming, corrupting
Among the living
I am the walkin' dude
I can see all the world
Twist your minds with fear
I'm the man with power
Among the living
Follow me or die
Fire, hot Fire
Purge the world with fire
Damnation is the price he'll pay
For an evil man's desire
Good, vs. Evil
The Stand to vanquish evil
Man can only live one way
That place right in the middle
He's seeing, He's calling
His legacy, He's spawning
He's coming, corrupting
Among the living
I am the walkin' dude
I can see all the world
Twist your minds with fear
I'm the man with power
Among the living
Follow me or die
