    Default Yahoo Draft Picks in Keeper Leagues

    Hello all,

    I have not encountered it yet until now - but I am in a keeper league where we keep 6 players.

    Accordingly, when we drafted this year, rounds 1 to 6 were filled with our keepers, and we started drafting in the 7th round.

    However, when we make trades in the season, we can offer picks in the 1st round all the way to the 21st round.

    My question then is if we trade a 7th round pick, is it really a 1st round pick - or would yahoo view our 1st round picks as the 7th round picks, which I believe is the case.

    I hope that makes sense, and wondering if anybody else have come across this in their keeper leagues.

    Thanks,
    16 Team H2H League (Keep 6)

    Your commissioner needs to specify which draft slots are for the keepers. Usually either 1-6 or 16-21 would be used in the case you describe, and no trades would be allowed with the keeper picks (unless you specify that trading keeper players is allowed).

    Meant to say keeper slots, not keeper players there.

    I have the exact same setup, and yes, a 7th rounder is really a 1st, so make sure everyone knows and doesn't screw up a trade, or offer something from the first 6 rounds.

    That being said, I think I'm going to transition the keepers to the LAST 6 rounds in the future (manual entry either way), so it's less confusing for new GM's.
