Injured Reserve Rules
I'm pretty upset with Yahoo at the moment because it makes no sense. I have Derwin James, he's been out for three weeks with a hamstring injury. Each week he goes to Questionable, and then out immediately - forcing me to activate him if I want to make midweek changes. However, the biggest issue is that this week he has a BYE week this week and is still listed questionable but is out for all intensive purposes until Week 8 no matter what. Why the **** do I need to activate him off of IR prematurely to make a move for another when there is no chance of him playing. This is stupid. Combined with the fact that I have Brian Branch activated this week off the PUP list - now I have to drop two players off of my squad if I need to make any changes with no guarantee either of them will play or be productive. I would like to see smarter IR designations, quicker in real time so that real decisions can be made. Otherwise I'm leaving this podunk forum and will migrate to leagues who really think through locking teams transactions using waivers as a punishment
