Welcome to the 2018 Brothers Keeper Fantasy Football league year.
Welcome Back!
This year brings a change of ownership and a change of draft date, but the same competitive fun. Team Forever Tide (M Mohler) put in a solid few years and even made the playoffs in 2017 but has relinquished his team to a new owner. Welcome aboard team Geaux Long (C Long).
Included in this Blog:
- 2017 Final Standings
- 2018 Draft Order Equation
- 2018 Post-Keeper Pre-Draft Spreadsheet
Following the
2011 draft order equation research and based off the Final 2017
Brothers Keeper fantasy football season final standings, regular season winning percentage, and regular season total points scored (see the box above), the upcoming 2018 draft order needs to be computed.
Note that the league no longer utilizes a consolation/loser bracket for calculation. Thus the four teams that did not make the playoffs keep their season ending rank for the calculation and draft order. The only rule that needed to kick in was to drop the 2017 champion into the 10th draft spot of the order. The 3 factor draft order calculation is as follows; here's the link to the
Google Doc version of the spreadsheet):
So here's the final (commissioner approved) draft order for the upcoming
2018 Brothers Keeper 12 season:
1. Holy Smoke (R Johnson)... BIG SURPRISE THERE LOL!!!
2. Ghost (B Garner)
3. Rmmm's Golden Eagle (D Pilcher)
4. Game of Pwns (R C Smith)
5. Sloppybutt (M R Smith)
6. Points On the Bench (D Kessler)
7. Yer X-MOM (P Smith)
8. Legion (M Peltonen)
9. Geaux Long (C Long)
10. Yankinfowlsandfeline (J Smith)
Remember: In order to create league parity we want the worst team drafting first as it is the most advantageous draft position to draft from to better their team (see the research
here). League parity creates more competition. We are regularly seeing new teams compete for playoff spots very late into the regular season. The league has gotten very competitive! It's all about making it to the championship bracket!
Post-Keeper Pre-Draft Sheet
All of the keepers have been reported and declared for the
2018 Brothers Keeper 12 league year. The following draft sheet reflects what has been reported to the League Commissioner. Thank you for being prompt and for selecting what round they belong in when needed.
The following spreadsheet is available for use for the draft (
and for download). The draft order and keeper values all need to be double-checked verified by you. The spreadsheet should be pretty firm however. If you see any errors please notify the League Commissioner or League Historian for an inquiry.
No teams kept a team defense or kicker this year.
Only QBs, WRs, TEs, and RBs were kept.
