Two rounds of FA will run in this direction.

Heartofthecity first up to choose. When you had picked please post up here immediately with who you selected so the next player can pick.

Mikeyt086

Is it just the one player we can take yeah? With the Jags cap space and massive holes in the roster I've identified about 4 players I'd like to get eventually.

Just one player mate, so you really need to prioritise.

After the 2 rounds I presume it will be a free for all though at that point there isnt going to be much left.

HeartOfTheCity

Let the games begin.

Signed Kellen Winslow, TE.

PacFish

Rams take Chad Clifton LT

BigBadRob83

If you can lads, PM the next guy on the list when you've made your pick, might help speed things up

PADRAIC.M

Cardinals take TE Jeremy shockey

When do we hope to have this completed? Also is there a min amount of time you have to wait before resigning a player after cutting him?

mikemac1

I know I'm being an awkward sod but I won't be getting the game until payday, the 20th

Is there somewhere online I can view the FA's?
A leaguemanager?

Sorry

Raoul

I am not sure. You could probably find out the free agency online and your player. And then get someone to leave the franchise, pick your team sign them and then join back as their own team.

mikemac1

Too much hassle

Browns GM has full confidence in their team and doesn't need no stinkin FA's! :cool:


pm'ing the Colts now

The dawg pound are sure :cool:

Sign into madden careers, don't know if you will be able to join league through here but should be able to see the free agency listings. I'm on phone and managed to see some of the players but not enough to objeta screen grab worth while.

Berty44

Sorry to bear bad news. Unless you actually have the game on XBox you will not be able to see anything through the website. I have not seen any list of FA online nor have I seen an up to date list of rosters or salaries or salary cap.

Mikeyt086

I'm sure someone can grab a screenshot of the Free Agents and let him reserve one until he gets the game... He is the Browns after all, could do with someone in the 80's.

Not until the first cut day as far as I would reckon which would be week 2/3

Red Crow

Hawks sign EJ Henderson

PM sent

Mikeyt086

Jacksonville Jaguars sign RT Marc Colombo.

PM sent to Berty.

Guffy

Just thinking would it possible to put off advancing to week 3 of pre season till this is done? Give us two games to try our new players.

Also for round two of draft place allotted times for selection. Maybe every four hours from 10. Am to 10pm? Obviously people can post before hand and maybe if your two or three picks away submit your 3 picks to the gm.

This is going to be painfully slow for another round. Feedback?

Ibmax pm done

Paully D

Just wondering about free agents as it's my pick. I have $3.44m in cap space, so does that mean that's all I can spend on a free agent? Cheers.

SantryRed

Well how many players have you got at the moment? If its more than 53 then do your cutting now to open cap space up.

Currently have 63 mate. So it's OK to cut 11 of them now and use whatever I have left in cap space on a free agent if necessary (obviously I won't need to spend that much of a FA)?

PerrinV2

Actually just on the topic of cutting players could any1 post a link to how many players I need in each position?
Just so I know where to cut when the time comes

helimachoptor

Perrin, if you take a look at your depth chart, it will tell you how many you currently have and how many players at each position you need

Go to more, strategy, team needs and then you'll be able to see it mate under the active requirement.

PerrinV2

Does the cap come into affect for pre season or is it as long as your under it before week 1?

Paully D

Right, my roster is up to date now and I've just signed another target for Rivers to hit with the acquisition of Plaxico Burress.

I've PM'd ET who is next on the list.

Nice pick Paully. Was wondering when he would go. Be careful you don't shoot yourself in the foot this season though

Also Santry/Raoul, is it 1 or 2 rounds of FA Draft before open season?

etloveslsd

Steeluhs take Jacob Hester

Pm being composed to paddy now.

Cheers man, very happy with it.

I think the main reason he didn't go earlier was because of his salary ($5m), but I had the space after my cuts and with the division I'm in need as many targets to hit as possible.

Rivers at QB with Gates, Burress, Floyd, Meachem and Royal to aim at should be a threat. Well, they would be for any player that can pass the ball anyway so maybe not me :pac:

is there any way to check the remaining FAs on the CC website?

Look at your team, click om selected positions and at the bottom of the page the free agents show up, you can also look at available trades down there.
