Last night, twenty fantasy team owners completed the first five rounds of the 2004 BBFL draft without touching a keyboard or saying a word.
With the draft set to take place next Thursday, yesterday was the last day to announce for owners to change any of their five "keepers," players retained by owners from one season to the next. Surprisingly, no owner made any last-minute changes to decisions announced earlier this month.
