NFBC Message Boards

We received an e-mail from one of our members (thanks Chris Plouffe ) who said it would be a good idea to list the differences in our rules that have been made compared to last year. We agree it's a very good idea, so here are the changes:



1. The draft will have 30 rounds this year, as opposed to 29 last year. That means the benches are now 7 players, up from 6 a year ago.



2. The FAAB will show winning bids and teams and also show the runner-up bid amount.



3. In-season eligibility has been changed from 20 games to 10 games this year.



4. We are working with STATS to enable lineups to be set up to 5 minutes before the first game of the week. That will give owners a little more time on Mondays to set their lineups.

I like this idea. I work until 2am on Sunday nights. So many decisions happen after I go to work as far as DL moves and such.

I just want to add that we've also added Lifetime Standings this year for everyone who was in the NFBC last year as well and I'll have more details on that soon. I'll also get more details on the first FAAB period that takes place on Sunday, April 3rd and if that Sunday night game is part of Week Zero or Week 1. I'm meeting with STATS this afternoon and will have those answers.
