Four of a Kind League - DROPS (Joker needs drops!)

are we only allowed to draft 10 players in the FA draft or can you draft more?

15 is the max. I'll double-check but I think that's right.

Found it in the "Rules" sheet on the google doc. You are right. 15 is the max you can draft.

I have 6 Prospects and 4 Prospect pick this year. I have a 4th RD pick that I would like to shop or do I lose that with the drops? I have 2 in the 1st and 1 in each of the 2nd and 3rd Rds.

Looks like you have six prospect picks currently 1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 4. You have 12 prospect currently, eight of whom ('19 and '20 classes) will need to be dropped or promoted. So you should have enough space to make all six of your picks. You do need to drop or promote Frank German and Brailyn Marquez. And you should trade me Adley Rutschman as you didn't deal with him either. I'm not sure you need to drop Jarren Duran if you don't want to. He did receive a card, but I don't think the rules state you need to promote carded players if you're under 10 total [Commish?].

Chase, I got you with two 4th round prospect picks for a total of 6. I'll re-check.

Rant, you are correct. No need to promote if you end up under or at 10 after the draft. And don't worry about the years. They don't matter any longer due to my voted on rules change.

Chase, you just won't have your two 4th round picks as it stands now. You could cut two more Prospects if you wanted those 4th round picks.

I completely forgot about the rule change. I'm going to keep a couple guys in the prospect line who didn't need to be promoted. My rejiggered list is as follows:
