This year's keepers must be declared by 11:59 p.m. on Friday, August 14th. They must be declared in this thread. Please use the following format.
Blue Streaks Keepers
Barry Sanders DET RB - 1st
Jerry Rice SFO WR - 4th
Fran Tarkenton MIN QB - 16th
Please list the round that they are being kept in this thread. Remember, you are not required to keep any players. You do not need to drop anyone on your roster in MFL. Once I put in the keepers, it will drop all other players and place them into the correct draft spots.
You then have two weeks for trading of draft positions or players or combinations thereof.

Greg Olsen CHI TE - 9th
Steelers, Pitt D - 11th
Pierre Thomas NO RB - 12th
Antonio Bryant 16th rounder Wr TBay

I believe Edwards is a "Highest Available" keeper, according to the MFL rosters... 2nd round pick.

from our bylaws:
* Prior to the start of the draft, owners may trade draft picks, players, or a combination of the two.

I swear I was told at one point that there was no off-season trading of players... maybe I'm thinking of a different league.
I PM'd Wolfden1... I would hate to see a new owner miss the deadline, with guys like Fitz on his team. Might be too late, though... his profile says it's 4:30 AM his time.

Oh, I'm sorry. You missed the keeper deadline. I guess I'll get to choose Fitzgerald with the first pick
Oh fine, what a lame excuse. I wasn't even in the league when the deadline passed. Man what a whiner. Fine, you can have your lame keepers.

Can someone help clarify what rounds were Bad Azz Warriors picks being taken from? I see some picks on his roster, but no reservation on the draft sheets and nothing in this thread. Sorry if I missed something.

Well, that is interesting. It doesn't look like he ever declared them. He cut his roster down to three players only before the deadline. After I entered all of the keepers from this thread, I then went to look at the rosters to make sure everyone had their three or in one case, one player. Bad Azz had three players so I didn't think anything about it. I just went into the commish keeper page and his weren't selected.
Since he obviously had his keepers selected before the deadline, although he didn't follow the proper procedure, I'm going to go ahead and enter them, since the draft is starting. We also don't have any hard and fast rule for missing the keeper deadline either as I learned in Any Given Sunday this year.
We need to address this for next year.
