Has anyone ever been in this position? I had an awful draft last year. Lost Gronk to retirement.
We can choose 3 keepers, and they always slot in as our top 3 picks. I only want to keep 2 though: DJ and Mike Evans. Would rather pick from FA pool in round 3. Next best players are Allen Robinson and then Guice (or Tevin Coleman).
I'd rather have a 3rd round pick than those guys. Does anyone know what happens if I only keep 2 of 3? Do I get my 3rd round pick or does Yahoo automatically select another keeper? Commish says that he doesn't know...

Re: Yahoo Keeper league, keep only 2 out of 3
I haven't experienced this directly before. But, if I had to guess keeping two would not entitle you to a supplemental draft prior to the real draft unless it's specifically configured that way in your league settings (or, your commissioner conducts a manual draft and adds the player to your roster). Too much customization with restricting rookies, order, etc. with a supplemental draft.
All that to say, if you pick two then you probably forfeit a free player. You could think about trading a late draft pick for someone on another team who they will be dropping anyway.

Re: Yahoo Keeper league, keep only 2 out of 3
Interesting. The way Yahoo does keepers, at least in this league, is that they have always been our 1st 3 picks. Draft essentially starts in round 4. The person picking 10th actually picks 1st since it's a snake...waynesworld1234 wrote: ↑Wed Aug 14, 2019 11:32 am I haven't experienced this directly before.

That's why I thought that if I didn't pick a 3rd keeper I might just be able to choose the player I want in the 3rd round.
Thanks for the feedback!

Re: Yahoo Keeper league, keep only 2 out of 3
It could be. I've never used Yahoo. It may mark your pick as 'pass' or something like that in the system too. I get what you're trying to do, but I wouldn't bet on it letting you. Can you set up a mock league and use some dummy data to see what happens with default settings?jetsfan5757 wrote: ↑Wed Aug 14, 2019 12:19 pm Interesting.
