Finders Keepers 2011 Drops and Free Agent Draft

[Rant]

The cards usually come out about the 1st of March. Have your drops by the 10th of March, and we will begin drafting on the boards on Thursday the 16th.

All drops and promos I've posted are preliminary until the owner confirms. Any list may be changed prior to the March 10 deadline. Remember any 2009 prospect pick not promoted to your active roster will automatically be cut from your roster. I'll update rosters prior to the draft. Everyone is responsible for their own research on available players. If I have time I'll compile a list of available players -- if someone else wants to perform this task, please have at it.

Rules: ANNUAL FREE AGENT DRAFT
1) A non-serpentine free agent draft of at least 10, and up to 15 rounds, will be held each year shortly after TSN/SOM cards are released.
2) Only those players who were issued SOM cards for the current season and appear on TSN’s website are eligible for the draft.
3) Draft order is determined by cumulative win/loss records. Reverse order, worst-record first, NFL style.
4) Prior to the draft, all owners must drop enough players to bring their rosters to a [b:e9b5fb3890][color=red:e9b5fb3890]maximum of 30 players[/color:e9b5fb3890][/b:e9b5fb3890] allowing for 10 draft picks; Owners can drop below 30 players, but must not have less than 25 prior to the draft.
5) Player drops must be announced prior to the beginning of the Annual draft.
6) All owners must have a full 40 man roster upon completion of the Annual draft.
7) There is no clock for Round 1 of each Annual Free Agent draft. All subsequent rounds will operate with a 3 hour clock.
