Ah, that makes sense. Was wondering, since it showed DVO had less cap space than me, then looked at his draft picks and he only has a 4th and 2 6th round picks.

Might have trouble finding a Chargers and Panthers owner. Chargers only have 10 million cap space including rookie money. Panthers have negative cap space. I have $20 million and feel strained.

Its not hard to make cap space just have to cut the roght players panthers owner prolly quit becuz of the cap space

OK I have been completely out of the loop. Did I miss my chance to re-sign my own players? If so I'll just be starting from scratch I suppose. Whatever the case it's my own fault, I've done a crappy job keeping up with the league since the playoffs started.

Our new Patriots owner has joined the league! Thanks again to bv for squatting for us (new league motto: "A Gentleman Always Squats". Maybe?) Not sure if staticz ever decided if he wanted to stay on as the Panthers...but other than that, we've got the Chargers and Steelers open (but thankfully...with their last owners still locked in, so at least those teams can be controlled).

And for anyone wondering, we currently have 4 teams "ready to advance". We'll see how the rest of the night goes, but I wouldn't be shocked if we were waiting till tomorrow night anyway.

And to bring everyone up to speed with where we're at


IMPORTANT

Stage 2 Instructions

NO ONE is to make any contract offers to players who were not on your team this past season. Again, you will ONLY be allowed to negotiate with your own free agents. On 12/13 at 7:30 PM EST, free agency will be opened completely (barring any other catastrophic EA ups).

Also, when you're done making offers to your players this week, please select "Ready To Advance". This could help us GREATLY cut down on the planned 24 hour window that we're taking for each stage.\

And one last thing, we need everyone in the league to be watchdogs to make sure everything is going according to policy. Things that would stand out is any player having multiple offers on him. That shouldn't be happening right now. Or if you see one of your players with an offer from another team...make sure to say something. I'm not expecting any devious intent from people. But mistakes do happen too.

You technically did miss the game's intended exclusive re-sign period. But it was decided that we'd manually do another week of that for various reason. See above for instructions.

Yeah I just read through everything. Hopefully I remember which players are even mine >.< Stupid Seahawks. If I'm unsure I'll check the rosters. Braylon Edwards may not be a seahawk anymore IRL but he was MY mediocre-ass receiver in this franchise, dammit.

Make it (hopefully) five, as I've clicked on the ready to advance button from the website.

If two people wish to do a trade, it has to be posted up in the forums first to get approved right? Once its approved, the players then trade?

Well, depending on how many trades you made (and I'm not remembering many), you could probably just use the real Seahawks roster as a reference. At the least, that might jog your memory when you see some of the names.

No, submit it to the CAGLeagueSports account (the one in the OP) and submit it to them. He then sends it out to the other four members of the trade committee, who vote yea or nay. When that's done, CAGLeagueSports posts in the thread whether it was accepted or rejected.

im almost positive that the only people that are going to bid on FAs prolly have already done it seems like only the active people in the thread have been doing the things ur suppose to do lol

If anyone is looking for a running back, Ahmad Bradshaw is available. Two years left at around 10-11 million, 88 overall, 92 speed. Looking for draft pick(s), MLB help, LG or a wide receiver.

Also, still looking to move down from the second overall pick. Prefer to stay in the Top 10, but I'll consider moving further down if the price is right.

I haven't yet because I'm at the library ostensibly studying for finals, so slow your roll there, mon ami.

wow i didnt realize how fast andrew luck was in this game gives me more time to move around for plays to open up i like that

Is there a way to scrim with your career team?

Nope. That level of thinking is way above EA's pay grade, lol.

It hurts being so smart. EA is only an hour and a half away from me. I'll go let them know. Anything else I should tell them?

Go themselves.
