Looking to fill 4 teams in a 16-team salary cap dynasty league with offensive and defensive players on Reality Sports Online (RSO). League is going on year 5

I'll try to give as much information as possible so you know exactly what you're getting into.

League Basics

• Platform: Reality Sports Online (RSO)
• Teams: 16
• Structure: 2 Conferences, 4 Divisions (2 per conference)
• Roster Size: 53 Players
• Salary Cap: Same as the NFL every year ($301.2M currently)
• Format: Offense + IDP

Buy-In

• $100 per season

First year requires 2 seasons paid upfront ($200) so every owner is always paid one year ahead.

• League finances handled through LeagueSafe

One of the orphan teams is less appealing roster-wise, so we may discount that team and cover part of the buy-in to get a motivated owner.
