Dates could change depending on the effect of the world shutdown.
As of now, from what I hear, the NFL Draft will still be held, maybe via phone rather than live.

Anyone affected by the virus, let us know and we can accommodate.

OK, everyone seems to agree to push the start of things back a month, and reassess at the end of March.

I've posted new dates in Red, keeping things in sync with Frenzy, for us double dippers

Since it looks like the NFL will not have a pre-season, but the season is scheduled to start on time, so lets go ahead and keep normal upcoming dates as they are in the rules:

August 31 at 12:00am - Injured Reserve Opens and Roster Declarations are due

August 31 at 11:59pm - Off-Season Free Agency ENDS

September 1st at 12:00am - opening of In-Season Free Agency

With little to no information coming from Training Camps, and no pre-season games, can we push this back to the Sunday prior to the 1st game of the regular season? That way we will have a better idea on cuts and who has made active rosters or the NFL's expanded practice squads.

Sounds good to me....forgot NFL pushed back cut down day..

So, new dates:

September 6th at 12:00am - Injured Reserve Opens and Roster Declarations are due

September 6th at 11:59pm - Off-Season Free Agency ENDS

September 7th at 12:00am - opening of In-Season Free Agency

Sounds like that would work for Frenzy too. Mind if we copy?!? ;)

Is there a rough draft for a 2021 season timeline? Most concerned with when cuts, Franchise Tags, and Renegs have to be in by before the turnover to the new year,

Should be in the rules. Taking my daughter to the airport soon, but can get something together in the next couple days
