League Rules

Starting lineup (10): QB, RB, RB, WR, WR, TE, FLEX, FLEX, FLEX, SUPERFLEX.

• FLEX: RB, WR or TE.
• SUPERFLEX: QB, RB, WR or TE.
• Taxi Squad: 4 spots (see Taxi Squad below).
• Injured Reserve: 2 spots.

Bench size and IR eligibility follow the league's Sleeper settings, shown live at the bottom of this page.

• 0.5 points per reception (half PPR).
• Tight ends get a +0.5 reception bonus, so a TE catch is worth a full point.
• All other scoring follows the league's Sleeper settings (live summary at the bottom of this page).

Each offseason the league holds a rookie draft.

TBD Proposed, from the OG rules: the draft starts two weeks after the NFL Draft as a slow draft with 4 hours per pick, paused 10:00 PM to 10:00 AM ET.

TBD Proposed draft order:

• Playoff Teams: reverse order of the year’s playoff standings, with exceptions:
  • Winner of the 5th place game receives the 1.07 pick.
  • Winner of the 3rd place game receives the 1.09 pick.
• Non-Playoff Teams: ordered inversely based on each team’s MaxPointsFor.

TBD Consolation Bracket Bonus: in OG the consolation bracket winner gets the 2.13 pick in the next rookie draft. Does Overflow do this?

TBD Annual fee: $___, due two weeks before the start of the year’s rookie draft.

• TBD Proposed, from OG: trading a pick outside the current year’s draft requires paying half of that future year’s buy-in.
• Once half the buy-in is paid, the team may trade all owned picks from that same year.
• This rule applies independently to each future year.

• $___ — 1st Place
• $___ — Regular Season Winner
• $___ — 2nd Place

• Trade deadline: Week 11. Trading reopens after the season ends.
• TBD All trades execute immediately; the Commissioner will not “push” trades.
• TBD No review window. Concerns about league health or intentional stacking should be raised with the league.

Each team gets a $1,000 FAAB budget for the season.

• TBD Waivers execute at 12:00 AM ET.
• TBD “After game” waivers clear Tuesday @ 3:00 AM ET.
• TBD Players are on waivers for 1 day after being dropped.
• TBD FAAB does not roll over; in-season FAAB is assigned at the conclusion of the rookie draft.

TBD Weekly schedule (OG’s)

• Mon — Free Agency
• Tue — Locked (No Moves)
• Wed — Waivers
• Thu — Free Agency
• Fri — Waivers
• Sat — Waivers
• Sun — Free Agency

TBD Proposed, from OG: a separate $100 offseason FAAB budget, assigned at the end of Championship week. It does not roll over.

• Waivers run Wednesday and Sunday @ 12:00 AM ET.
• Waivers are “locked” every other day.

• Top 6 teams make the playoffs.
• One-week matchups start Week 15.
• Semi-final: Week 16. Final: Week 17.
• Seeds 1 & 2 receive a BYE in the first week.
• TBD No divisions. Seeding tiebreak is total points for (Sleeper’s default).

TBD Last place punishment for Overflow hasn’t been set. (OG’s loser runs a Beer Mile.)

• TBD At year end, rosters lock (no player adds; trading allowed) until all buy-ins are received. Drop-dead date is Draft Day. If unpaid, the Commissioner may proceed as planned or orphan the team.
• TBD No bartering/trading with assets outside of the Dynasty League.

Each team has 4 Taxi Squad spots, a practice squad for young players that doesn’t count against the active roster.

• TBD Eligible players: rookies and second-year players (OG’s rule).
• TBD Players must be assigned to Taxi before the season. Once the season begins, Taxi “locks” and players stay there unless promoted.
• To promote: you must have an open roster spot or cut someone.
• Once promoted, a player is ineligible for Taxi for the rest of the year.
