Re: 2015 RULES: Suggested Topics

I hesitate to bring this up because it might cause a lot of potential problems, but I'm selfishly motivated by Patrick Willis' retirement. Should we consider some version of the "Barry Sanders rule" which allows teams to recover some money/cap room if a player fails to fulfill his contract...

Re: 2015 RULES: Suggested Topics

I'm certainly not married to Madden grades, but I don't see any workable alternative. Having a committee of graders with one person each responsible for certain teams' grades would lead to way too much variation based on who is doing the grading. PFF uses volunteer graders to help them come up with ...

Re: Status

Just a thought, are you familiar with Kimonify? It has a beta Chrome extension that let's you write APIs for stripping data from webpages to google sheets without having to handle all the back end programming. And it's free. I played around with it a little bit for fantasy football management, but u...

Re: 2014 Off-Season Update

I'm with Sooner on this one. It bugs me, but I don't know the solution. What I don't know is if people put in waiver claims because they don't realize the player is cut to PS. I always check the status of a player from the search on the roster page (for new players, W is waiver, WP is waiver to prac...

Re: Rules suggestion

I'm all for mimicking the NFL as much as possible. However, until we rent out a meeting hall, hire actors to negotiate on behalf of players, and give us all a week of legal tampering (and maybe a month of illegal tampering), I think we have to bypass the "real NFL" argument for free agency...

Re: Rules suggestion

Just chiming in too. I have no problem with the time stamp or last minute bids. Its exciting to hope I get the guy and disappointing if someone ups an offer at the last minute, but I have no problem with it. Given that we only have 5 bids, sometimes you are waiting for a previous bid to clear so you...

Helpful NFL salary site

Maybe this is more public already, but I wanted to point out a very useful site for NFL contract financial details: http://overthecap.com/ There are some handy things in there like estimated 2014 draft pick compensation: http://overthecap.com/nfl-rookie-salary-cap-2014.php Details on the tender amou...

Re: 2014 RULES: Minimum Salaries

Would it be possible to add this information on the bid page somewhere?

LTC extension

Can someone remind me how the LTC extensions work for players entering the last year of their contract? Specifically, if I offer a 5 year extension to a player in the last year of his deal, does that add 5 years to the contract or replace the existing year (thus adding only 4)?
