Actually, after thinking about it... there's no point in keeping any of your players unless its a top top tier guy in this format.

I may end up keeping zero. I think the way we're doing it is kinda unfair.

I don't think it's unfair, for the reason that every player has the same options available to them. What it does is add a lot of intrigue. If you somehow knew that every other manager was keeping three players, you would know that you essentially could have picks 34, 35, and 36 in the draft...also knowing that there are likely several players "kept" that don't rate high as those draft choices of yours will. That would be a good-good for you. Also, you would essentially still have the option to "keep" anyone on your former roster, just by drafting them when your turn comes up (others are "drafting" their keepers). How terrific would that be? You can keep your guys if you want, or if there's something better then you can go that route instead.

Which, of course, is why you probably won't get that option all to yourself. If it was such a good thing, everyone would do it...and...then it wouldn't be such a good thing anymore.

As I said, it adds intrigue!
