Free Agent Bidding:
The process for signing an Unrestricted Free Agent is to create a new thread in the "Unrestricted Free Agents" sub-board under "Free Agency". The thread should have the player's correctly spelled name, NFL team and position in the subject, and a valid bid as the message. Other GMs may reply in this thread with higher bids for the player. The bidding will end when 24 hours has passed since the last valid bid. You can not drop a player from your roster and bid on them.
We will have a easy math for Free agency (i.e. 4 years of 500,000 = 2 mil) So this will be ** Years plus Salary for the total now **
The (UPBID) will have to be $100,000 Dollars higher. So like the next bid will have be $2.1M
This will take alittle bit to get use to if you have never used it but we will work through it as a group. Feel free to ask questions I will help everyone anytime.
Here will be the Minimum salaries you will be able to use for the Free Agent pickups.
NEW MINIMUM SALARIES $850,000K for each Player
Free Agency Sniping Rule
If you want to bid on a player AFTER the 20 hour mark then the bidding team needs to two these two things:
1. Identify it as a Snipe Bid
2. Bid at least $250,000 more then the previous leading bid
Players may be signed for a maximum of 5 years and your math must be correct for the bid to be valid. The minimum raise for a valid bid will be $100,000 You may not delete the bid, once you post your bid it is final.
A GM can include RFA status in their UFA bid. The player must only have three years of experience or less to get RFA status. The RFA bid cannot exceed the players third year. EX: Jalen Ramsey just finished his second year in the league so to sign him to an RFA contract it can only be a 1year deal with RFA status. (1 year @ 2M + RFA) If a GM is signing an undrafted rookie to a RFA contract they can do a full three year deal plus RFA status.
You must have salary cap space available for a bid to be valid (remember, any Free Agency bids in which you are the leading bidder also count towards your salary cap).
During the season, you must also have roster space available for the bid to be valid (remember, roster limits are lifted during the pre-season). This means you must have less than 53 active players. Players on waivers do not count towards your roster limit. You may conditionally waive a player to make roster space (but not salary cap) for a player as detailed in the "Conditional Waivers" section below.
If a team makes a free agent bid which would put them over the roster or cap limit, that bid is invalid. The last valid bid becomes the leading bid.
