I would like To see the playoff losers get to play a game against each other the following week to determine place # 3 Etc. Instead of having their season end earlier than the winners ( I know this is not the way the real NFL works ) I have 16 team leagues & this would go to determine next years playoff position rather than then just using rankings for these teams . fleaflicker.com
We won't be able to keep track of how you want this year's playoff performance to be applied to next year's playoff position, but if you do so in an offline fashion, you will be able to reseed the Week 1 teams next season before the playoffs start.
Hope this helps!
Is there a consolation bracket for teams that don't make the playoffs?
Yes. The consolation bracket is automatically scheduled. There is also a third-place game involving the losers of the semi-final round.
Note: Fleaflicker only applies the 3rd place game to the final standings in redraft leagues (otherwise there's an incentive for the owners to deliberately lose the 3rd place game to gain a better draft position for next season).

Hello,
There will actually be 3rd place match-up automatically scheduled. From the Owner's Manual:

This is good. I did mean Draft pick position for next year not " playoff position " but a 3rd place game is a step in the right direction . Thank You.
