Remember when resigning your own players.

Resigning current players:
Maximum contract length of 6 years
Regardless of the length of contract, bonus to be capped at 50% of the total deal.

For example, if you give 10m salary you can give maximum 10m bonus

Also be reasonable with the length of a deal for older guys.
(By older someone who could potientally retire this season or next)

FA Rules
Maximum contract length of 6 years
Regardless of the length of contract, bonus to be capped at 50% of the total deal.

So the exact same as the resigning rule

I'll be playing the Super Bowl later on when I'm back in, but one suggestion and maybe you have thought of it all ready, but it happened with the pro 10, the last stage of off-season before the draft is just a recap of who signed where, but your locked out of your draft board, could we stay in last chance to scout till just before the draft gives us all chance to study the combine results for that extra day,

No just forgot to add the day,done now.
Was thinking of reducing each stage to 1 day but might be best to leave as is.
Draft link added for voting,9th to the 15th between 7pm and 11pm.

Also can everyone ready up when they have done their resigns...means we can advance earlier if possible.

Rock Lesnar

I voted for the monday at 10, just went with whatever suits yous'e lads

giffney1991

Looks like nearly everyone seems to be done with the 1st round of FA so I'll pop on later this evening and we might be able to advance! I think Perrin was right about only having 1 day for each stage, there is too few of us not to keep it moving

Obviously if you need the extra day, let us know

I'm ready to advance just didn't click on ready as i was still thinking over offers for players and didn't want to lock myself out

Advancing now to stage two

giffney1991

FB J.Kurn signes with lions
LG R.Roster signs with lions
DT H.Ngata signs with Rams
LOLB D.Ware signs with Rams
LE C.Johnson signs with panthers
LT J.Long signs with panthers
DT S.Siliga signs with panthers
CB D.Kirkpatrick signs with panthers
MLB Z.Brown signs with Falcons
MLB B.Carter signs with Falcons

Few more there as well for lions, Giants and Falcons but not really that highly rated

PerrinV2

Nice,I gave Ware and Ngata 1 year contracts with no bonus's.
They'll do nicely as backups.

Rock Lesnar

Dezmin Lewis signs with Falcons , he's a star

giffney1991

Probably going to advance around 8 this evening, FA round 2 is pointless really and none of the lads with big bids go till next round!

Let me know if that's a problem with anyone

tripperman

When's the poll for the draft finishing up, Monday at 10 is three clear with 7 out of 8 votes next is Monday at 9 with 4

Rock Lesnar

Monday seems to far away, lets get this party started

Also Giffney what are you offering Amukamara, it must be crazy money

Not sure but best to get the scouting done now I'd say!

PADRAIC.M

I finished all my scouting there now too! Really like how you can see their combine figures without using scouting points

tripperman

Yeah iv only two points left, didn't look at what stage we were in just who signed and scouted,

Adds an extra twist to drafting and you can't double tap a button and waste 1000 points on something silly with scouting ether

I may have made an error. I went in, saw I was over the cap, so released some players in a panic. Then I realised that the reason I was over the cap was because I had peding negotiations so I canceled them and now I'm back on the green. However I think I may have incurred penalties for releasing the players. I'm apparently still 9m on the right side of the cap so I don't know what's happening.

Edit: Actually I've checked the salary page. The cap is 148m. I have salaries of 108m plus penalties of 24m meaning I have 16m still free.

Mhmm, we can clear your cap penalty but I'll leave that one to Perrin!

You could release AP to free up more space, just to be sure your'e definitely ok

Pudsy33

That's not what I'm after, I'll happily take the penalty! Just hope I'm not over the cap!

PADRAIC.M

Half of that 16mil is for your draft picks you probably only have 9 to work with

Pudsy33

I'll find out after the advance anyway!

I didn't advance as Perrin hadn't been on as of yet so don't know if he got any more work done. Advance when I get home 2morrow

We can only clear cap space if there was a genuine mistake that would totally screw the persons season, otherwise we have to live with it unfortunately

Right,gonna leave the advancing to Giffney if thats the case.
Also its just gonna mean a longer wait for the draft,unless a new poll is done up.

I'll advanced at 6ish to the final stage

Monday is out front for the draft, but after making it this quickly threw FA, it would be a long wait to the draft, I don't mind what day it's on to be honest, if you's want to move it up to keep things moving quickly I'm good with that

Rock Lesnar

If its an early draft, Tomorrow or Friday night would suit me as iv'e a game elsewhere to fit in, happy to wait til monday to

I'd prefer the draft to be this week, too, if possible.
