As far as the rule change, I'd be more in favor of the 5 roster spots be dedicated to TE/D/K without a minimum requirement. There were two goals, in my eyes, to the rule. #1 was ensuring that all teams fielded competitive lineup at least most weeks, by having a full compliment of players. The second was the restrict the hoarding of certain positions when we expanded the roster. If we eliminate the required minimum without dedicating the roster spots to those positions, hoarding will occur. I'd like to prevent that, and simply requiring those spots on your roster be filled by TE/K/D would be much easier to police and monitor, and the penalities would be easier to impliment.
I could get behind this as well... but we'd have to either REMOVE the 500 cbs or reduce it to 250 or something. If not you can be guranteed the 500 will be allocated to non-DEF/TE/PK.

I really have no sympathy for failing to comply with the 5 rule because we've had ALL off-season to get this in the clear. But I feel 250 is a sound compromise. Even though it is each OWNER'S responsibility to keep track of their roster status I feel the powers that be have been distracted with the other league and it has affected those not part of SAC'D.

As for the "5 rule" I feel the only tweak that must be made to it is to extened the period to comply in-season from 24 hrs to the end of the bidding period for that week. This allows teams enough time to fill vacancies through trades or FA pickups.
