Thanks BF!! It has been a great year in this league for me - I hope everyone else is having fun. I think making it 12 years is impressive, and I also think our parity and level of involvement can keep us going for a long time.
The rule change I would suggest is just to change the draft order basis to optimum points for (Optimum PF on the Leaders tab if you use Fleaflicker on desktop) rather than record for teams not making the playoffs. This removes any incentive not to play your best lineups every week, and reflects roster strength in a better way than record. It usually works out the same, and our league doesn't suffer from terrible tanking woes, but it removes tanking from being in the thought process. The only way to truly tank with optimum PF is to get rid of high scoring players off your roster, which is a strategy if you're playing for the future, but comes at an obvious cost. I guess we'd have to implement for the 2025 draft.
We could also discuss using FAB for waivers, which I would support. I can make the case for it if anyone is interested, but it's just all about making waivers more intentional and possibly more equitable.

Me, carp and Nick squared away all the final ‘22 and ‘23 finances and everyone is paid up through ‘23.
You didn’t need to do that, should be $20 to me for ‘24.
Oh, well shoot. So matt owes you my 2024 dues!

Gardner Minshew - should have an opportunity to start, but went to a worse situation than he had in Indy.
Ty Chandler - so far slated as a lead back in Minnesota, but they'll draft or buy him company back there.
D'Andre Swift - comes into a crowded but winnable backfield situation in Chicago, might be able to run the ball with goal to go now.
Burrow - keeps Higgins, for now...
Bijan - gets better at coach and quarterback so far, should help his opportunities...
Marvin Mims - loses Jeudy in front of him, but still unclear whether he'll be a man in the Denver offense.
Free agency can be such a fantasy equalizer. Glad I held on to Zach Moss.
Seems like a lot more shuffling of the deck this year than most, but maybe I'm just remembering through a Packer fan lens. We always watched this time period from the sidelines...
