Do you have to be under 20 players to draft?

Quick question...We have to have under 20 players inorder to draft even if we are sending our rookies to the practice squad? I know there was a vote on this but not sure of the final result. So if I have 2 picks I can only have 18 players inorder to draft both my rooks?

I remember discussion about lifting limits to draft but I haven't followed as close to as I need to
My team sure looks good on paper...even without a stud RB

No we can draft players directly to the practice squad. See this thread towards the end of the discussion: http://forum.dynastytheleague.com/viewt ... p?f=4&t=95

The one thing that was pointed out was that you had to have enough salary cap space to draft the rookie prior to the rookie being placed on to the practice squad.

That's what I thought but I think the Comish didn't raise the limts. It says I would be over the 20 man roster limit when I try to draft????

Looks like you are correct - according to the League ByLaws the limit is still set to 20 roster spots. So it would make sense that the system would not let you draft. Looks like we need to wait for Brandon to increase the roster limits.

Yea, he needs to raise the limit to 24 cause I think some guys have 4 picks.

I don't know how to get ahold of him other then email so if someone can text him to up the limit to 24 we should be all good.

Usually, when the commissioner has a good team, these are the kind of polls you see...
