Auction Only Fantasy Football League Rules

Auction Rules:

  • Owners will participate in an auction draft to build their rosters.

  • This auction will have proxy bidding.

  • Owners must pay special attention not to exceed their salary cap ($500).

  • The auction draft will be conducted when the league is filled.

  • Owners are required to fill their 20 man active roster spots during the auction draft.

  • At the beginning of the auction, each owner must nominate two players. The opening bid can be as low as $1. After your nominations, you are encouraged to raise bid on other players. However, you may NOT raise your own bids unless another team bids on it first.

  • A player is won when an owner holds a high bid for 12 hours.

  • After winning a player, you must place an opening bid on another player before raising other bids.  This will keep the draft moving.

  • The commissioner can, at his discretion, submit players into auction if the number of outstanding bids begins to fall.  In those situations, he will try and put players out that, based on last year's fantasy stats are among the highest scoring players that still remain free agents.  The commissioner also reserves the rights to adjust the nomination process, for the sake of regulating the audit tempo. 

  • When the team has filled their roster, they are unable to submit any further nominations. When all teams have filled their rosters, the auction is complete. At the final stages of the auction, the commissioner will likely ask that all remaining teams in the auction increase the number of players for bid, so that the auction can be completed in a timely fashion.

  •  You are required to have a starting lineup at the end of the auction. 1 QB, 2RB's, 3 WR's, 1 TE, 1 Flex (RB, WR or TE) 1 K & 1 DEF/ST

 

Season:

After the auction, you do not have to submit a lineup. Best Ball/Optimal Lineup Scoring. Auction Only league rosters consist of 20 overall players featuring a starting lineup of 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE, 1 Flex (RB, WR or TE), 1 PK and 1 DEF and 10 bench players. The highest-scoring players for each of these positions will automatically be placed into your starting lineup each week: THERE IS NO MANAGEMENT OF THESE TEAMS AFTER THE AUCTION. There are no trades, add drops or pickups during the season. This is just an auction draft. The winner will be determined after the NFL season is over (weeks 1 to 16). The team with the most points will win the 1st place prize.

Owner Conduct:

Each owner is expected to participate year-round and exhibit good sportsmanship towards one another. Tanking, collusion, throwing games, team abandonment and other conduct determined detrimental to the league and its members may bring the possibility of expulsion. Any member expelled will forfeit any fees already paid. In the event someone is removed from the league, the commissioner will do his best to find a replacement. If unable to find one during the season, weekly lineups will follow a best ball format for the un-owned team (Best ball is when the starting lineup is determined by the weekly highest scoring players per position each week, i.e. the highest scoring QB that week would be considered the starter.) Also, the Commish has the right to change the lineup if deemed that the intention was to throw a game with the best projected points for that week.

 

NFL Strike Clause:

In the event of an NFL strike or general labor stoppage, the season will be canceled and all entry fees will be refunded, excluding deposits which will be pushed to the following season (less any expenses already incurred to host the league). 

 

Strange Play Rulings:

This section will address odd/impossible plays that always seem to happen. It is the responsibility of owners to bring these types of plays to the attention of the commissioner in a timely manner. Plays that happened in week 3 when we are in week 5 will not be reviewed.

Players will not get credit for throwing a TD pass to themselves (Brad Johnson Rule). They WILL get credit for the play as if they are a WR. So in other words, he would get the receiving yardage, TD reception (6pts) and .5 for the catch.
