My Votes IR => 2 Consecutive weeks out OR IR by NFL...I'm ok with being able to pull them back off of IR but that could get dicey on the commish end if a player is say out week 1, slated to be out week 2 so they are put on IR as soon as the player is declared out. Then in week 3 they are back so they come off of IR and back to active roster. That is a scenario where the NFL never declares a player on IR and we use it on our IR for an extra roster spot. The only thing I could think to deal with this is policing each other for abuse?
Move on from Covid. If your player goes out because of Covid, see IR rules
In 20+ years of this league, I've never seen a roster have enough talent on a Taxi squad to promote all 4, but if you want to, I think you should be able to (but agree they cannot be reused or go back on TS)
Home page, don't care
15th is fine

Not sure what ""Maybe consider letting playoff team pick up FA's and deciding what to do with the extra week now""" means. If extra week meaning week 18 now, then we need to discuss when playoffs start. Do they still start in 13 and end in 16 or do we go 14-17? Also, I highly vote NOT to let playoff teams have access to FA's. I've been on both sides of that divide and I felt it would be unfair as a playoff team to grab someone in Dynasty that another player couldnt, and BS that a playoff team could if I was out and couldn't. IF this was redraft it doesn't matter, but I don't think it's fair to allow playoff teams to have exclusive access to FA.

Is this the FA schedule for this year? If not, we need to modify the league settings ""ADDITIONAL LEAGUE RULES SETUP""
1. From June 1-3, owners may open a thread for any Free Agent (rookies not drafted are considered Free Agents) and bid on that player. Minimum bid is $2. The bidding increment is $1. Bidding closes on that player after 24 hours have passed since the last bid. This Unrestricted Free Agency period may extend past June 3rd, but no new players may be bid upon after June 3rd. If the Rookie Draft has not ended by June 1st, then this period will be extended and will not start until 1 week has passed since the final pick of the Rookie Draft.
2. A second Unrestricted Free Agency period will run from July 8-10. Owners may open a thread for any Free Agent and bid on that player. Minimum bid is $2. The bidding increment is $1. Bidding closes on that player after 24 hours have passed since the last bid. This Unrestricted Free Agency period may extend past July 3rd, but no new players may be bid upon after July 3rd.
3. A third Unrestricted Free Agency period will start from August 1-19. All blind bids must be submitted by the 19th at 11:45 pm EST and the minimum bid is $1. The blind bid process for Free Agents will be conducted through the league’s MFL site. All blind bids will be processed on August 20th so that the FA pool will be set for the next FA period. Players that are dropped during the blind bidding period will be available to be picked up during the following FCFS period.
4. A fourth Unrestricted Free Agency period will be First Come First Serve on the message board from August 21-23. During FCFS, teams will claim a player on the FA thread and will be charged $2 per player. Players dropped during this FCFS period will not be eligible for FA until after the first week’s games were played in the season.

I bought up the question in season and so these same "ADDITIONAL LEAGUE RULES SETUP" need to match. FCFS was always noon on Thursday, and now it's 8 AM. 8 AM is better for me but I'm on eastern time. I say we vote?
