Draft & Keepers
The RFFL draft process combines a 16-round snake draft, a draft lottery, draft slot selection, keeper declarations, and division assignment through chosen draft slot.
Current Draft Process
| Step | Rule summary |
|---|
| Draft lottery | Determines choice order for slot selection |
| Slot selection | Each team chooses a Round 1 draft position |
| Keeper declaration | Keeper decisions are made during the slot-selection window |
| Division assignment | Selected draft slot assigns the team to a division |
| Draft event | Live ESPN draft room, with in-person or remote participation |
Timeout Rule
If a team misses its 24-hour slot and keeper selection window, the team drops to the bottom of the slot-selection list and may choose only from remaining slots.
This rule was adopted in 2016 and is indexed as the Draft Slot Selection Timeout Rule.
