Players you’ve held the longest.

[ArrylT]

It used to be CJ2K and Brandon Marshall - I think I had each for about 7-8 years but currently longest held player is Gio Bernard since May 2013.

[Fezzik]

I took Larry Fitzgerald with the third overall pick in the startup draft prior to the 2009 season. This is his 9th year as a mud dog, and we hope to bring him the title he deserves this year. When I drafted him he was 26 and was coming off back to back seasons where he caught about 100 for 1400+ yards and 10+ TDs.

There were definitely some lean years (when Skelton and Kolb were his QB's) that I considered trading him, but the last few years he's been a plug and play high floor player with the occasional explosion game.

Giants fan, but big fan of Fitz.

Initial draft in 2010: still have Eli, Maclin, and Greg Olsen

[Fezzik]

I've also had Gronk since he was a rookie in 2010; I traded for Crabtree in 2010.

[pokerface40]

Just my 3rd year in dynasty, but still have Hopkins and Kelce from my initial league. I don't see them leaving anytime soon.

[Orenthal Shames]

The only players left on my roster from our startup draft years ago are Gurley and Kelce.

[ayrichieb]

4 guys i have on my team in sig since the league started Phillip Rivers, DeMarco Murray, Demaryius Thomas and Josh Gordon ... Dez also was included in that but moved him last week

[failblazer]

In my league of record (34 roster spots plus 2 IR) I have 3 players from our original draft back in 2013 (Andrew Luck, Dez Bryant and Josh Gordon). Sadly, my 1st round pick was wasted on Trent Richardson but such is life. Also traded for Le'Veon Bell mid season (for Cam Jordan, TJ Ward and Shane Vereen), so I've had the core of my team together for a long time. Had been holding Robert Quinn until very recently (week 7) too but his switch to LB designation absolutely killed his value.

Of the 36 currently on my roster, 10 were drafted by my team in out initial draft or as rookies and have never been off my roster.

[BearlyBears]

Oldest league is 5 years - got Kendall Wright in the start-up and I've held him ever since. Still holding out hope Trubisky can turn him into a legit WR2.

Took Jerrick McKinnon in the first rookie draft in that league and had him until a few weeks ago. Wish I still had him.

[snaps06]

My oldest league is in it's 4th season. The only guys that I drafted in 2014 that are still on my roster are Brandin Cooks and Matthew Stafford. I did draft Sammy Watkins that year as well, but he spent some time off my roster one year when I sold him for DeAndre Hopkins, then turned around and sold Jamaal Charles to get him back. Watkins is that guy I just can't quit for some reason. For fun I went and looked at my season-ending roster in that league (I finished 6th that year) and here's what it was:

QB: Stafford, Rivers
RB: Charles, Lacy, Bryce Brown, Bobby Rainey, James Starks, Joseph Randle, Ka'Deem Carey, Boobie Dixon (what a list of RBs haha)
WR: Watkins, Cooks, Maclin, Charles Johnson, Eddie Royal, John Brown
TE: Fleener, ASJ

I've turned that hot mess into team 2 in my sig. Looking back at that, I made the right holds and sold the right guys at the right time.

[joeylitz]

This is the league’s 6th year. The only player I still have is Brees - maybe the DEN DST. I had Sproles this whole time, too - until he got hurt this season and I cut him.

[joeday]

For the Bombers in signature I have kept AJG every year since trading for him midway through his rookie season

[Opeth24]

I drafted hopkins in a rookie draft in dynasty. Will probably never get rid of him

[Jetsfan06]

Start up draft was before the 2015 season, current players i still have from the draft:

AB
Lesean McCoy
Landry
Latavius murray
Jonathan Stewart (yuck)
David johnson
James White
Stefon diggs
Terelle pryor

[ColdZealDonkeyStrike]

LeSean McCoy. Drafted him 6th overall in the rookie draft when the guy at 5 took Shonn Greene. I was really bummed to miss out on Greene at the time haha.
