Well, I have to go and look but... I understood that the challenger AKA previous highest bidder before the end of the FA period, or the original player's team, could contest the player and I understood that those two had to explicitly make their intent to challenge the winner in a bid-off; however, I am genuinely confused because I thought the winner at the end of the FA period assumed the rights of the player unless challenged, but I don't see the reason for that individual to state their intent to accept a bid-off from a challenger. Just slightly confused here.

I'm bidding off on Peppers

Why are people posting that they are accepting bid-offs when they were the highest bidder? Serious question here. Is this some new policy where the highest-bidder at the end of the FA period has to say they accept the bid-off from the challenger AKA previous highest bidder?

So who is handling final 5 bid-offs?

Yeah, this is invalid--just making it clear.

Yeah, but I'm not sure how he reached that figure and on top of it, his page is very difficult to understand. I thought the purpose of these was to standardize the format. Obviously it's a little late now, but I think you guys should prevent him from bidding unless he adheres to the format and that goes for anyone else, too. People doing their own thing makes this game a lot more difficult than it needs to be. His SoF is very confusing.

Yeah for sure we are about to see if they're really better at cap management or not. I thought they brought someone in a couple years ago to fix that. We'll see as you said.

To be fair, they've tightened up a lot since those days and are doing much better now.

It's the smart way to do business. The Eagles (obviously not an example of the best teams here) do this and they always have enough cap space to make big moves, it's a bit absurd. I always admire how those organizations do business and it's how we need to start manipulating our cap. The Patriots are another team that can navigate the cap well.
