I think what schisno did is wrong. IIRC, you're not allowed to cut players you just signed unless they were signed to $300,000.
it's $500,000 now. 9. You cannot trade players you sign in free agency. You may trade your franchised/transitioned players or RFA tenders that were not bid on during free agency. The only exception to this is that you can cut players signed to contracts of $500K or less. 10. You can retract minimum ($300K) bids ONLY.
Three years ago it was $300K. Last year it was $450K. This year we changed it to $500K due to the increase of the salary cap. If teams have an issue with what's going on, then have your starting bid be at $500K. The rule was made not to handicap teams with back-up players if something good came up in the draft that was more best player available than a need... give teams some flexibility.
Or we can institute the schisno rule that doesnt allow teams to cut players that they bid on in the final 10 minutes "just cause they can". i like that idea MUCH better. The whole point of the minimum bid rule is because you can start there,
Nothing does. But why should I when I dont have to? isnt that the same logic you employ when you do what you do in free agency? Its because you can. Well, now I came up with a better idea. Any player bid on in the final 10 minutes cant be cut. I like it.
Am I really that transparent All I have to say is I'm glad I got the OLineman I was after with such little effort and I didn't have to go into 10 million territory like with Jason Brown or Ryan Kalil. Seeing that Jason Smith is getting 6 mill right now, pretty glad the salary is not much more.
I know, crazy isn't. Let's face it, he's that bad boy that teams think they can change. Oh he's such a rebel, he treats me rotten and is no good for me, but I know I can get to his heart and change him into the man I know he can be. -swoons-
Stop being babies, seriously. Change your strategy or something... I'm sorry you guys have to penny pitch with minimum bids and $50K increments. I'm not changing this rule and I don't care how much you whine to me about it.
when you got the spare cash why not bring in a guy who would play that position at a high caliber, especially compared to Wayne Hunter who was playing that last year. Sure I increased the payroll at that position but D'Brickshaw told me to go out there and help whoever is lining up behind Center out and get a great complimentary bookend, and boy did I.
I was being sarcastic. I mean maybe it wouldnt take any longer then if I went around raising everyone's bid at the last minute no more then ******ed then going around raising bids in the last 5 minutes just cause... which of course would make trent williams the highest paid RT in NFL history for a guy who has never played RT.
For example, let's say it is round two in the draft... you have a first pick in the 2nd round and somehow... Kendall Wright is there at pick #33. However you have two starting caliber receivers on your roster at over a million each at the least and four more depth wide receivers you signed between $400-$500K. You have six wide receivers but you don't want to have seven wide receivers on your roster because it hurts other areas of your team. Wouldn't it be nice to have a little flexibility to cut one of those depth wide receivers so you could bring in Kendall Wright? That's why the $500K rule is there, to add flexibility to your roster. When it comes in handy for you to use, you'll appreciate it. And if you just respond with "oh Wright will never fall to the 2nd round..." then I would just say you didn't get the big picture.... because I know someone will.
Well he did spend a couple years at RT in college, so I imagine the transition back shouldn't be too much of a stretch. If you really want I can flip him and D'Brickshaw. Look Boik, now I have a $985,000 Tackle on the rightside! But, but he was at left.
I understand the rule and why its there. all I am saying is that Schisno has been doing this stuff for the 3 years...it gets old.
