Re: Another Loophole

Just wanting to point his out... Now that New Orleans is bidding on Wilfork also... I can trade the "rights" to WIlfork to Dallas, and they can just match, rather than an open bidding war. I'm not sure I see that as a loophole or something to prevent, but that could be open to further dis...

Re: Patriots/Cowboys trade CFFL

I like where you're going sport... but I'm not sure 535k with a 35mil SB is bad for the league. Not that it's a good thing... but it wouldn't be the end of the world. It would especially help rebuilding teams, and would in turn probably provide a better turn over. It's partially because of the comp...

Re: Draft Start Date

It is usually the next day after the draft starts I believe, but might be a little different story with the NFL draft changing their schedule around to primetime weekday (instead of saturday start for NFL and sunday start for us). I mentioned focussing on the draft this week but haven't gotten all t...

Re: FA Start Date

There appears to be a problem with the newly signed player's salaries. All salaries show $0 for 2010 for newly acquired players. Yeah it had to do with putting in partial season calculations in the middle of last year and it was trying to do that now for 0 games leading to 0/17 for 0 x salary = 0. ...

Re: 2011 Draft Picks

Is there even going to be a new league? Mostly for new GMs who have inquired about openings previously and recruitment of other members from fantasy universe who are starting to thinking about joining fantasy league, I am planning on getting another one up soon and looking over the data now. And ex...

Re: Madden 2010 Ratings

We'll talk more about grade scale this summer and how things should or need to change in translating their grades.... but B really intended for established starters and C+ perhaps a guy who starts because of situation but not a solid starter level (or really good backup who could start perhaps but d...

Re: 2009 NFL Draft Talk

McFadden didn't take all the carries away in OAK last year. Mendenhall got hurt but even before then wasn't going to take all of Parker's carries away. I think Hightower is more in control of his future. If he runs like the first half of last year, he'll continue to get playing time and probably sta...

Re: 2009 NFL Draft Talk

For Denver, it's got to be all defense with their 2 first rounders, but I could also see them grabing a RB with lower first or 2nd and a WR in the upper half of their draft also. Otherwise, defense... defense... defense... I'd like to see us jump up from 12 if an impact defender was slipping, and co...

Re: Draft Day

It's the sum of all a team's picks. They are broken down by pick on the bottom of the main draft page for your team. The contracts will be like always with some signing bonus (massive signing bonuses for first rounders) and roster bonuses on top of the rookie salary scale for most. The 2009 cap calc...

Re: Madden 2010 Ratings

I can agree with some of that but advantages/disadvantages to everything. It's stuff I want to capture and consider amongst everything but too much could be made of a flat number of "starts" or draft round outside of context also. There might be a stud young player who gets little playing ...
