Rookies & The Draft

Postby Rich-League Officer » Mon Jul 01, 2019 10:48 am

Each season the PNFL has a draft of the best rookies. Those rookies will be assigned salaries based on where they are selected in the draft.
In some cases it will be a bloated contract since their actuals would essentially make them minimum wage players.
We artificially assign them higher salaries for one year. After that they are treated as all others.
The chart for these salaries is below...

In this chart you can see what your rookie will cost in terms of salary and points covered in another section.

The draft itself is conducted in one of 2 ways. We have been using the forum message board which is time consuming and relies and others active participation but allows for careful study and trading. Or, we use a program called draftsock which brings us all into a room and in 2-3 hours finish the entire draft.

The Draftsock program can be found in the "downloads" section on the home page. Middle column, middle of page its right there.
You would install this, open, select league (pnfl) and enter my IP that I supply you.
Pick your team and you are inside. There you would have access to all the rookies and will see the picks as they are selected.
I have the power to put you on and off the clock.
Round 1 = 120 sec
Round 2 = 90 sec
Round 3 = 75 sec
Round 4 = 60 sec
Round 5 = 60 sec
Round 6 = 60 sec
Round 7 = 60 sec

***The 2044 Draft will be using the forum***

Draft Lottery
5 random draftees (anywhere in Rounds 3 thru 7) and 3 undrafted. (use of RNG)
Yes, all 5 could be in the same round. Unlikely, but it is not 1 per round.

If the player is drafted:
In the 3rd (two points)
In the 4th (two points)
In the 5th (three points)
In the 6th (three points)
In the 7th (three points)

Undrafted (my choosing)
Teams are only permitted 1 boosted player.

All Potentials and no more than one point in any attribute.

A team will be eliminated from participation in the lottery if they have more than 63 players on the roster after the draft is complete.
Those max 63 must include all Active slots on the roster.
