2037 Off-season

Well, the game will say "Trades are only allowed during etc, etc, etc" as a warning, but it won't stop you from processing the trade.

However, it's disallowed by rule. A long time ago it wasn't, but I think it has been for some time now; or, I imported it when I used the CFL as a template for the rules page. Generally, it's to prevent us from converting cap space to draft stock.

I swear Ben once said it was disallowed by the game, which is why it is a rule.

Anyway, no on sign and trade. End of story. ;)

Or in my case...stupid luck. The guy goes at least three stages without signing. Then as soon as I trade for a leader, he's says, "yeah, I'll sign that paper." Dick.

[Aston]

Yeah, I agree, what a dick! He could have at least had the decency to sign with me.

(It's a catch all rule that prevents some decent ideas for trades from happening, too, but easier that than finding a line to draw and stick with.)

[sawblade300]

Well, you all may have your chance to sign him anyway. I may bite the cap hit bullet and cut him. I really don't need a 2nd FB as long as Conley is alive.

[Guest]

If you have the money, wait till after camp and pre-2. One guy might take a dive. ;)

[sawblade300]

Well, this was a disappointing stage.

[Aston]

Paul Covington, you're killing me here. Will he ever sign?

He is mine ! Leave him alone ! he is only using you to raise my salary offer :P

[Delandis]

At what point in the season is the very last chance for you to renegotiate a contract?

[Aston]

The Bowl Sim. Once that runs, no more renegotiations. Although the playoffs run as soon as all participants are ready, so maybe by Week 17 or the WC Midweek would be a better time to try to get last call contracts in.

[sawblade300]

Are you F'ING kidding me???? I trade to get Ness and he holds out. Dude!! I had nothing to do with your poor contracts in the past. Don't take this shit out on me.

47 players on the roster and I have to somehow come up with another 7.5 million for Mr. Big Shit in a new town. You haven't even put on your pads and you've already pissed me off Ness.

[Cory]

I'll trade you straight up for J.B. Jennings. Jennings is under $3 mil and signed for the next 3 years. They're the same age and around the same bars. I'm just looking more for a stuff it down their throats back, and Jennings doesn't fit that mold for me.

[Guest]

So when these players hold out, will they hold out until a new deal is reached? I have a couple holding out as well, that's why I'm wondering..

[Matt]

Sometimes they come back in a sim or two, sometimes they hold out until the season starts or later.

When they do though they are mad at you and won't resign the rest of the year (I think). If they have 2 years left they will get over it and you have a chance to resign them again.
