Keeper Rules

• You may keep a maximum of three players but are not required to keep any.
• Players are kept for one round higher than where they were drafted and replace your pick in that round.
• If you do not have the required draft pick, you must use a higher-round pick to keep the player.
• You may trade for a pick in the round you wish to keep a player in, but it must be done before the draft order has been finalized.
• If you wish to keep two players in the same round, you may trade for an additional pick in that round. This can be done before or after the draft order is decided.
• Undrafted players on a roster at the end of the year can be kept. Their keeper cost will be two rounds below their end-of-season ADP (based on the league platform).
• Drafted players who are dropped or traded retain their original draft position for keeper purposes.
• Players can only be kept for a maximum of two consecutive years after their initial draft.

This assistant computes eligibility and cost using rules 1, 2, 6, 7, and 8 above. Trade-for-a-pick mechanics (rules 3–5) aren't modeled — verify manually if they apply to your situation. A * next to a round means the computed cost fell outside the draft and was capped. A no pick tag means you don't currently hold a pick in that round — you can still keep the player, but rule 3 or 4 would apply.
