Re: Proposal

I didn't mean it as matching rights, I just meant it as a way to cut players but then not fill up your bids on resigning them. The only advantage would be that it wouldn't count against your 5 bids in 24 hours and I like the wrinkle of the player has to be on your team a certain time or be a certain...

Re: Proposal

Yes, except everyone would get a crack at them, much like the real world, but you would be given the slight advantage of not using one of your bids on them.

Proposal

With all the cap cutting moves that are needed, I am wondering about the feasibility of allowing a team to cut a player but retain rights in FA to not count against their total number of FA bids in 24 hours. This would only be a small advantage and maybe could only be applied to a certain number of ...

Re: 2011 RULES: Salary Floors

Guys are we really debating this. It would be really easy to get above a floor because you could sign one or 2 players to ridiculous contracts to get there. There is no need for a floor. If it is that easy, then why not just have it for the sake of keeping the rules closer to the NFL? Because it's ...

Re: 2011 RULES: Salary Floors

I don't typically chime in on these much but the question of floor vs no floor: in our format the competitive balance I think is a little different than in the current version of the NFL. I feel like with (sometimes) the changing of GMs/Owners in our league changes certain teams directions from con...

Re: 2011 RULES: Salary Floors

Having a salary floor wouldn't affect the competitive balance. If i wanted to tank for draft purposes, and keep a low cap this year, I would just sign a few players who wouldn't help me to high 1 year deals. I would meet the floor, but i would still not be competitive. That logic is too flawed.

Re: 2011 RULES: Salary Floors

119M is just too tight. I dont have all day to sit and manage every penny. 100- 107 is good. More importantly we have to enforce the 53 man rosters. Teams keep 40-45 and get charged for the empty spots. But do those empty spots get a cap hit when you replace it with a player? No cap hit means we ha...

Re: 2011 RULES: Draft Soon?

Let's keep this as realistic as possible. I think it will be an interesting draft to be only able to trade picks and not have free agency first. The NFL did it this year, so why don't we. We are running our teams like we really owned the real thing, let's use the real rules if we can.

Re: 09 Rules: Draft Clock

Is there are way to make the draft picks not consecutive but instead go off at a certain time? If we are setting aside a day per round, could we say, no matter what, pick 17 will occur between 2:10 and 2:30 no matter what. and time slot each pick that way people could plan around their picks. that m...
