2023 ROOKIE DRAFT FOR THE LOCKDOWN LEAGUE MAY 10TH AT 10:00AM
NFL Rookie Draft:
We conduct a 5 round Rookie Draft every pre-season. This draft is for NFL Rookies that were eligible for the most recent NFL draft (including undrafted players, and NFL Supplemental Draft Players). Players that were eligible for a previous year's NFL draft and went undrafted (but are still technically NFL Rookies), are considered free agents and are no longer eligible to be drafted. Our rookie draft is conducted on Fantrax. There will be no activity for pro boards with regards to our rookie draft. There is no posting of players drafted and there will not be a "Draft Podium" with our draft results on it. If a GM wants to see the draft results those can be found on Fantrax.
Draft order for non-playoff teams will be in the reverse order of the final regular season fantasy football standings. Playoff teams will draft in the reverse order of their playoff results (teams eliminated the same week will follow the same tiebreaker rules based on their regular season finish). Our Super Bowl winner picks last.
Draft Order Tiebreaker Rules (Reverse Order)
