Our Draft has begun We had 30 man rosters, you are allowed to keep players based on your finish the previous year. You can sign players for a max of 3 years after which they must re-enter the draft. Remember when people are picking different teams have different needs. A Team had the option to release a 1st round pick to retain 2 players and 1 player if you forfeit a 2nd or 3rd round pick. This is a new rule.
