Gentleman, welcome to HeyBurks♾️. Each year you will be allowed two “keepers”(a player you that will stay on your roster for the next years season). There will be no limit for how long someone can keep a player for. Example: Julian drafts Lamar and decides to keep him for the rest if his career. For year one, all players in the NFL will be up for grabs in the draft. Good luck and may the best man 🏆.
Each team gets $100 in the FAAB for the season. When a player is on waivers, everyone makes a blind bid, and the highest bid wins. You can bid anywhere from $0 to your remaining balance, but once you spend money, it’s gone for the year. If two teams bid the same amount, the league’s tiebreaker, built in waiver order rules decide who gets the player.
Loser "Punishment"
The Poop Bowl champion (last place finisher) has to buy a jersey for the league champion each year. The twist is that the champion gets to choose which player’s jersey it will be, but the player must have been on the champion’s roster during their championship season. This way, the jersey represents the actual squad that won it all, not just any random star. It also adds a fun tradition and a little bit of extra pain for the last-place team, while giving the winner a keepsake from their title run.
When a manager keeps a player, the draft pick from the round in which that player was selected in the previous season will be forfeited in the current draft. If that specific draft pick has already been traded, the manager must instead forfeit their next available draft pick in the subsequent round.
EXAMPLE: If a player was drafted in the 2nd round of 2024 and is kept, the manager will lose their 2nd round pick in the 2025 draft. If the 2025 2nd-round pick was traded away during the season, the manager will instead lose their 2nd and 3rd round picks.
