Re: 2015 RULES: Free Agency (Anonymous Bidding)

having a GM attach his name to a bid would alleviate a lot of the concerns people have regarding last minute or other actions that some GM's don't like. I disagree with this Larry. I place last minute bids all the time and I don't give a hoot in hell if anybody knows it or calls me out for it. We o...

Re: 2015 RULES: Add another LTC, Restructure

I gotta disagree. The free agent market is always robust and all the top players are taken off the market anyway (that's if the GM's are active). The home field advantage for above average players is a joke in many ways. You have to throw franchise money at them to keep them. Unlimited bids doesn't...

Re: 2015 RULES: Suggested Topics

This is how the NFL handles this situation concerning the practice squad. If a team signs a player off of another team's practice squad, that player takes up a roster spot for his new team for at least three weeks, bye weeks included. This includes three game checks. Even if the team chooses to rel...

Re: 2015 RULES: Suggested Topics

So my issue is not with losing a ps player to another team who offers that player a contract (never experienced a problem during season with how ps operates). It's during the off season, specifically cut downs, where teams (who are also over 53 or 75) claim my player, only to cut that player immedi...

Re: 2015 RULES: Suggested Topics

I have another topic. I claimed a guy on waivers in week 15 of the season. His cap hit was the entire salary. When I questioned the commish about it he agreed with my point but didn't want to change the rule during the season. I feel that when you claim a player on waivers you should only be respon...

Re: 2015 RULES: Suggested Topics

I have often thought that if you have a player added to the system you should get exclusive rights to sign that player. Maybe just a 1 year deal but there should be some benefit to prospecting. It sucks to have a player added and then have to fight for them in the free agency process. I think I've ...

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: 2015 RULES: Suggested Topics

I think these can be the most overly dramatic situations we get at times. It somewhat frustrates me to some degree that they don't have to be as I personally see it for players who only a tiny percentage actually will end up mattering a great deal and get overly fought over somewhat needlessly if a...
