• dole out league managment responsibilities
• decide on a commish-one…two…three…”not it!”
• define the IDP positions – DL, LB, DB
• decide how many IDP players we want as starters – 6 (2, 2, 2) or 7 (2, 2, 2, flex)
• decide how many IDP's on the bench – 6, one backup for each player (I love those big rosters)
• decide overall roster size – 30, 18 mandatory offensive slots, 12 mandatory D
• define divisions – Division in sports is defined as “a category created for the purposes of competition”
• create a revised cap to include the extra players – 17,500, keeps the same exact ratio of 583 cb per player currently in the Frenzy
• develop scoring for the IDP positions - ???
• establish IDP RFA Tender levels – ooooh, that will be fun, let me work on that
• establish IDP rookie draft salaries and bonus structures (for 2006) - ditto
• discuss possibly increasing the rookie draft by a round or 2 - at least two rounds, I think defensive talent is usually deeper, at least as far as realistic projects than on offnse.
• discuss possible increasing the Taxi or Practice Squads by a member or 2 – Taxi squad up to 6 and 2 per year (from 5th, and 6th rounds)
• consider some of the CDL's features, particularly contract extensions (Skip can expand on how this works in the CDL) - I like the extensions. A minimum raise of 300, or 10% for current players, or 150 and 5% would keep it at a similar level to the CDL
• consider adding a Franchise tag element – I'd be open if the problems can be worked out
• decide on a league name – Frenzy IDP
• have a logo created -
• decide on a travelling trophy (not in the Frenzy everyone chipped in $10-15 the 1st year to get a trophy that travels from champ to tchamp)... we then chip in $1 a piece each year to cover engraving costs. - Fine, but I know I'll never see it
• discuss limiting contracts in the inaugural season to 1 year so that everyone can adjust to the new format (although still allow the use of the RFA tags and whatnot during the next off-season). – Yep
• My own suggestion, increasing the number of RFAs per year, since the roster will be increasing greatly. I’d go with one more RFA if we get the Franchise tag, or two more RFAs without the Franchise tag.

umm, ditto! Well done Brian
