    The start date for the bidding process IS NOW. GOOD LUCK!!

    1. Each team has the choice of whether they would like to retain their current head coach, offensive coordinator, and defensive coordinator. Interim head coaches may be retained as coordinators or as a head coach. However if retained as a coordinator, teams are eligible to "steal" the coordinator which is explained in rule #4.

    2. Position coaches may move up to the coordinator position or the head coach position.

    3. Coordinators may move up to the head coach position as well as remain coordinators if they are not offered head coaching jobs.

    4. Teams can "steal" retained coordinators by offering a head coaching job. However they cannot "steal" retained coordinators to offer them another coordinator job. Retained coordinators can be promoted to head coach if they fire the head coach first. In house promotions must be made before the bidding process if you wish to forgo the bidding process.

    5. Each team will receive $10 million in their bank.

    6. Retained salaries go as following: $5 million for head coach ; $2.5 million for offensive coordinator ; $2.5 million for defensive coordinator.

    7. Free agent head coaches and coordinators have minimum salaries: $3 million for head coach ; $1.5 million for offensive coordinator ; $1.5 million for defensive coordinator.

    8. Coaching staffs will be current as of the time of this thread opening.

    9. You must post whether you will retain or fire your current coaching staff in the designated thread.

    10. Teams will bid on coaches, like in free agency. When a coach is bid on, if he goes 24 hours without someone else raising the bid, he is awarded to the bidding team.

    11. Teams must raise bids by at least $100K.

    12. The max bid for a head coach is $7.0 mil. When a head coach hits $7.0 mil, all teams will have the opportunity to match the $7.0 mil bid within 24 hours. The max bid for a coordinator is $3.0 mil, teams will also have the opportunity to match that $3.0 mil bid.

    13. The teams that matched a 7 mil bid will be placed in a pool where a randomizer will decide the destination for the coach (like in real life, money isn't everything). The same thing goes for the 3 mil.

    14. During the 24 hours when teams can match a coordinator's $3.0M salary, teams can offer that coach a head coaching position which trumps the coordinator position. However after the 24 hour period, the coach is off-limits for head coaching jobs.

    15. You CANNOT hire a coach that has been out of coaching (out of work, not retired) for over 3 years (Cowher, Dungy, and Gruden are not eligible; Romeo Crennel is eligible), all but three college coaches, and fictional characters.

    16. You cannot fire coaches that you have signed via Coaching Free Agency.

    If there are any questions, feel free to ask.

    I won't have every single available coach on my list so if you are interested in a person that is eligible to be a coach or coordinator but is not on the list... just bid on him here.

    Remember, he cannot be out of coaching for more than 3 years, currently coach a college team (unless they are one of the three exceptions), or be a fictional character. You can promote other teams coaches only if you offer them a promotion (IE, promote a team's offense coordinator to head coach or quarterbacks coach to offense coordinator).

    Minimum bids for a head coach is $3.0M.
    Minimum bids for a coordinator is $1.5M.

    Maximum bids for a head coach is $7.0M.
    Maximum bids for a coordinator is $3.0M.

    reminder, please post your team name along with your bid. I have PM'd Seattle and Arizona to notify them that they each now have $2.5m to replace their respective coordinators who are perhaps on their way to accepting head coaching gigs elsewhere.

    (LOL at Fin-O bidding $7.0M on a guy who's never been a HC to replace Jeff Fisher. You lose at life.)

    Google Jeff Fishers career record, stop watching ESPN so much. Dude is nothing more than a consistent .500 coach.

    This team will be at 8 wins after week 10.

    Mike Pettine was previously signed by the Bills for $2.5 (a few hours ago the 24 hour deadline elapsed). Typical Raiders :couch:
