Moving forward, keeper costs will escalate a number of rounds equivalent to how long that player has been kept, with a cap of +3 rounds. Players being kept for the first time will be +1 round from the prior draft, second year keepers will be +2, and keepers kept for their 3rd or more year in a row will be +3 rounds. Keeper cost resets when a player is not kept and is returned to the draft pool. Keeper cost does *not* reset from trades

All 2024 keepers will be considered to be in their 1st year keeper status, so +1 draft round from the 2023 draft this year

Does not reset if traded or cut?

[Hollywood42]

Correct. Same as it has been with the prior flat +1 escalators. Only resets if a player is not kept

On the trade front - I have Cole Ragans (R15) and Dylan Cease (R17), and don't think I can keep them both. Would move one of them for some picks. Or maybe I'll keep them both and would move Adley (R11) for some picks instead. Let's see what happens

[Viking6]

Offering up my Round 13 Draft pick #152 for any Round 15 pick(169-180).


Also Paid. If you want us to post it in the thread

[ksmith31]

Keepers:

Hunter Brown (7)
Grayson Rodriguez (8)
Logan Gilbert (14)
Bryce Miller (15)
Luis Arraez (16)

*Both Brown and Rodriguez were original 9th round picks, Brown scored more fantasy points, escalates 1 extra round

*Both Gilbert and Miller (FA) have 15th round cost, Gilbert escalates 1 extra round due to points scored

I will be looking to make pick swaps. I own the 1st pick in rounds 7 and 15 where I have keepers. Hit me up if interested in discussing a swap(s).

Looking to move down in Rounds 7, 15, and 19. Would also discuss moving down out of the #3 pick in Rd1.

[Ray27Ray52]

I lost two stud keepers in Alcantara and McClanahan to injury. That hurts a bit.
