I'd feel differently if he had the space to make the bid, but this gives him a ridiculously unfair advantage and I don't think any bid above 9 should count.

Again, that slights me which isn't fair either as I've already explained I would cut conte and then I had no one left to sign so I would dedicate all funds to shields... Which is why there should be some sort of compromise as suggested in my previous post.

And I understand that as well. But it would've been likely that he would've made cuts before sending his bid in. It'd be different if he sent in a bid prior and was allowed to send in a new bid because of the mistake, and then made cuts. But I don't believe that he should have a limit placed on his bid when he's following the rules. Especially one presented by the GM who is bidding against him.

Curious, how much would Conte being cut and nobody else leave you. This isn't your fault at all but I feel like I am getting a raw deal here.

Why do you hate me bruddah  :surrender:

I'm sorry, man. I feel so, so terribly about it. At one point, you came in and targeted three different players at once who were all on my short list.

10.5 exactly which is the issue at hand as I can't definitively say I would've cut anyone else without prior knowledge of your bid. But conte was for sure gone. I've been trying to sell him off for a while and as soon as I got a capable replacement he was done.

The latter has been permitted thus far.

Stm85 wins Shields with a bid of 12

I apologize, everyone, for my mistake regarding the rules. It should have never happened like this.

I know I REALLY overpaid for Shields. DBs usually get a pretty big markup but if I had known I was gonna have to spend 12 stars I would have gone with Talib or DRC. Oh well, I'm still really happy with my secondary and I think it might just be the best in the league.

You had to, given the situation. You were dealt a poor hand. It's one of the best. But I've improved mine as well.

Yea yours came to mind as the one that might be better. Then again, you had an elite group to being with. The city of Philadelphia should give me an award for turning Fletcher, Cary, Boykin, Chung, and Allen into Vontae, Shields, Boykin, Weddle, and Nelson.

That is a serious turnaround. Truths Oline turnaround also impressive.

Impressed with the OL. Not only did you patch the holes you even improved spots that didn't need it like LT.

Thank you. It was in a dire need of help. We now have filled every hole of the two units discussed with more than viable starters.

Indeed. We both have absolutely dominant groups at DB and OL. Should be a good season in the NFC this year.
