Welcome to the T10-leagues. We are a highly competitive unique format and league design that can be described as a 50% Dynasty/Redraft hybrid; we call it Premier Dynasty, a more balanced approach to an elite keeper concept. Most of our owners love the style of play. This league was founded on a book that was written over 3 NFL seasons (2017-2019) and published in 2020 as a “How To” play book for anyone that wanted to try the format, but go into the draft with some knowledge under their cap. The book is entitled, T10 Fantasy Revolt: You Deserve a Better League and can be found on Amazon as an eBook or soft cover.
The league has been given many compliments from first year owners that thought they would just try it and then became convinced through just one season we were one of the best formats in the industry. One of our owners, a 2020 prep level champion from New Jersey has said, “this system is on the fantasy football cutting edge.” We will have about 8 returning owners and so will have about 6 open team slots. Returning owners will be bringing back keepers from last year, 411. We have a Dynasty Max Keeper Rule of 50% or rosters so on a 32-man team owners will not be permitted to keep more than 16 players.
(Keeper Note: This league may vote to throw all players back into the free agent market.)
LEAGUE BASICS: 14-teams (may reduce to 12-teams) 32-man roster 22 starters (11Off, 11Def/St) 10-man bench PPR 2QB with 9IDP Team Salary Cap = $320
SCORING: Original scoring format is what our owners love most! See complete list of scoring settings here: t10leagues.com/scoring
(*Roster Note: 14-team league is the goal. We may reduce to 12-teams if we are short paid owners by the deadline.)
2021 was the first year we did a 32-man roster and this league is the first league to use the Mod 1 rosters. Our standard format is 30-man but includes only an 8-man bench. Which is kind of lien for bench slots when most teams are stuffing their roster with 3 and 4 QBs. Not a lot of bench slots for other positions.
For those of you that don’t think you can do 2QB w/ 14teams I assure you that the math works. There are 32 NFL teams. 14 fantasy teams x 2QB =28. Surplus of 4 starters a week and approximately 8 backups will have a shot at starting at least 2 games. So, really the numbers work out. But admittedly, you CANNOT find starting QBs in the free agent market so yes, this is the main reason the league is very challenging. You must manage your QBs. Keep in mind that all 32 NFL teams have a backup. That means (32x2 = 64) there are actually 64 NFL quarterbacks in the QB drafting pool. Now we have a QB position max limit of 4/team so in theory if all 14 teams MAXED OUT on QBs there will be 46 total QBs rostered in the league and you will have a residual of 18 so-called back up QBs.
This league will use a FAAB for weekly waivers, where each owner will be allotted $100 of FAAB money to spend on a weekly auctions for free agents. The highest bidder will be rewarded the player.
The TRADE DEADLINE will occur the Wednesday AFTER THANKSGIVING.
Rosters are LOCKED once a team is eliminated from the playoffs and will be unlocked once the fantasy season in completed to allow for trades in the off-season, but not for adding free agents.
Roster Clause: Position Max Limits include: QB-4 RB-5 WR-7 TE-3 K-2 DEF/ST-2 DL-3 LB-5 DB-6 (CB-3) (S-3)
*DB Position Note: We strongly prefer specifying the DB designation separately as CB and S positions. Sleeper does not allow this feature but if they change it then the above parentheticals is how the position limits will apply.
***If you are looking for a fantasy football change, if your home league is getting boring and too repetitive, if you want more strategy, fun, fairness and equal opportunity for player acquisition in your draft you must do a salary cap draft. Join us and have the fantasy football time of your life. Salary Cap drafts are becoming more popular and we hope they eventually slay the snake. We are HUGE proponents of contract leagues, paying your players a salary and really knowing what it feels like to have the privilege of becoming a professional football GM. You can only have that kind of exberience in a Salary Cap draft Contract league.
We are committed to growing our format for years to come. You can have a long term, stable exberience with us and the T10-leagues.
