I dont particularly fancy the commissioners rule. I think having the ability to maneuver until kickoff Sunday and into the 4pm games as we&#x27;ll is more player friendly. However, this would surely make your league more challenging. Theoretically, how often are you making pickup so deep into the week anyway? For example, if you own Jimmy Graham and he had let&#x27;s say a concussion or a hamstring injury that may likely keep him out, you would have already found a replacement through waivers or wake up at 4am on Wednesday to be the first to pick through free agency. It&#x27;s not as if you are going to pick up some scrub on Sunday morning. So in essence, it shouldn&#x27;t make that much of an impact.

but this scenario, should Dez bryant be questionable on the injury report with a concussion and a GTD, lets say your backup wr is playing Thursday nightall of a sudden Dez gets ruled out at game time??many scenarios this way to not allow for optimal lineup as I would be faced with using a scrub, taking a zero depending on depth.....injuries are huge in fantasy and I think the only way to offset is to allow pickups

my league uses a waiver bidding system where you blindly bid on FA and the highest bidder is awarded the FA. The key is that waviers are processed twice a week, thurs morn and sunday morning. After years of fantasy i found this to be best and fairest system should solve most problems lots of leagues face

I&#x27;ve rethought this through and this rule is stupid. Nothing&#x27;s broke don&#x27;t screw the game up.
