Need input from you guys on this dumb situation. I am commissioner of my league, fourth year running. We were just an 8 team league among close friends but voted to expand to 10 for this season.
One of the new guys couldn't make the draft due to a family emergency thing, so his team auto drafted. Then once McKinnon went down, he straight up decided he didnt want the team anymore. I tried to find a replacement but failed.
I left the lineup as the default one coming out of the draft, so McKinnon is in the RB slot. Delanie Walker is still in the TE spot.
Problem is, is that the team has some really great players on it and my league is up in arms about it. Antonio Brown, AJ Green, Melvin Gordon, Cam Newton, as well as a few secondary/depth players. Most of the teams have emailed/texted/called me trying to maneuver a trade for one of those assets but are offering shit because the team has no actual owner.
Most of the league went and met behind my back and decided they all want to do a dispersal draft based on standings, where 9th place gets 1st dibs, 8th gets 2nd, 7th gets 3rd, and so on. 5q of the 9 owners are on board with the idea but I just dont like it at all.
Thoughts?
