**Steals & Bust**

The team that has the #1 Steal at the end of the season will win the Draftologist Award and will be able to subtract (-1) one year from any players keeper count.

Example: If Patrick Mahomes is currently a K2 on your roster, by winning this award you could essentially subtract one year from his keeper count and go into the 2022 season with Mahomes being a K2 again.

NOTE: (K2 = Keeper Count, meaning he’s been kept for 2 seasons as of 2021. A (K1) means that player has been kept for one season. A (K3) means that player is in their final year with that team. No player can be a keeper on the same team for more than three consecutive seasons.)

The team that has the #1 Bust at the end of the season will win the Leaf Award and will have to add (+1) one year to your longest tenured keeper going into next season.

Example: If Patrick Mahomes is currently a K2 on your roster, by winning this award you will have to add a year to the longest tenured keeper, keeper’s count going into the 2022 season. So if Mahomes is a K2, and all other keeper’s on your roster are a K1 or below, you would have to add a year to Mahomes and that would make him a K3 and Mahomes would not be eligible to be kept going into the 2022 season.

NOTE: (K2 = Keeper Count, meaning he’s been kept for 2 seasons as of 2021. A (K1) means that player has been kept for one season. A (K3) means that player is in their final year with that team. No player can be a keeper on the same team for more than three consecutive seasons.)
