2012 Rookie Bonuses

[Burt the Butcher]

Can someone help me out and calculate the rookie bonuses to be added into 2012 salaries?

I am going to try to help Jim out with 2012 Frenzy MFL site, and running out of time for everything...

TIA

And check which rookies are entering their 4th year and need to be either activated or cut from rookie squads?

I'll check the Rookies. As I understand it only taxi squad guys have to be promoted?

I would do the Rookie bonuses but I'm unclear on a few points. You could answer my questions via phone in about 5 minutes or less. If no one else steps forward within the next few days I'll give it a go.

Right..players on Practice Squad can stay there indefinitely.

To determine Rookie Bonuses, go into 2011 MFL site and sort each position by points (select top 200) - then check where each rookie finished, and compare that to the Rookie Bonus template in the rules. The App should show what round.pick each player was chosen, and whether they are still under contract.

I am headed to see Hunger Games with the kids, so can call you tomorrow during my lunch.

Is help still needed on this? If so, let me know and I can take a crack at it.

No help needed on Rookie bonuses. I have them all figured out and I'll post them this afternoon or evening.

Burt, is it easier for you if I post players from each team listed together or players listed by position? I've seen it listed both ways in the past. I'll post it the way that's easier for you.

[Burt the Butcher]

Actually would be easier if you posted them by player last name, alphabetically, since when I update salaries, the players are listed that way.

But I can search, so whatever is easiest....

I think I got everybody. Everyone please check your players to make sure I got them right. 4 players; Rice, Foster, Wallace and Gronk were not charged the full bonus because they exceeded the max salary.

[Burt the Butcher]

I cross checked a few random players, and checked my two...looks good to me...

Everyone please verify these are correct for your team. I am going to add them in this week to 2012 salaries..

Yep...that dart was a SOLID GOLD one for sure!!

[Bounty Hunter]

Foster was slated for 115 before the max (sic) salary kicked in.

[Burt the Butcher]

Jimmy Graham was wrong..

He was #2 TE, drafted in 3rd round. His bonus should be 238cb

[Bounty Hunter]

I see that on Graham. 121 was his current salary. I had both current salary and bonus on my notes and transposed the 2 numbers on his. i'll check the others and make sure he's the only one.
