This is the free agency thread for all Special Teams players.
 
Bidding on Free Agents:
 
If you win the bid you add that FA to your roster as of the 2015 season, don’t worry about the future.
 
Every GM has an idea on who they want and divvy up their budget according to this.
 
§ Team Name
§ Free Agent
§ Bid (# of Stars)
 
Baltimore Ravens
Justin Houston OLB
13 stars
 
***You can NOT bid on players if you do not have the free cap space available***
- You MUST create the necessary cap space first (by trading and/or cutting).
 
That’s for the first bid. If another team comes in and wants to bid, make sure and read through the thread, quote the highest bid thus far (if it's a player already bid on) and make sure to post a bid higher. If the first team wants to counter bid, again quote the post. Continue to use format above: Team name, Free Agent, Stars).
 
We don’t want people not looking for the highest bid and then bidding 6 mil for say Justin Houston, when someone has already bid 8.
 
 
Final Five:
 
In order to give a fair chance to match bid––and to stop a sudden mass bidding in the final minute––we have the Final Five rule. 
 
With five minutes left, one of the “CoCo” members will post that there are five minutes remaining in FA. If a player is bid on under five minutes, the team with the highest bid prior to the Final Five minutes will have an opportunity to get this player back in a “bid-off.”
 
In order to initiate this “bid-off,” the team that had the highest bid prior to the Final Five must state in the FA thread that they would like to do a “bid-off". This has to be stated within 15 minutes of the end of the FA period. If you don’t comply with this rule, your Final Five rights become revoked. Simple as that. 
 
Both parties––the team that owned the highest bid prior to the final five and the team with the highest bid at the end of FA––will PM their highest bid to a predetermined member. The highest bid wins, simple as that. In the result of a tie, it will be done again until we have a winner.
*NOTE* If you bid on a player in the final five but don’t “win” him there, you can’t take part in this process.  It is only for the owner prior to the final five and the owner at the end of FA.
 
 
General FA Rules:
 
Place ALL bids in the following format:
 
Team Name
Free Agent
Bid (# of Stars)
 
Absolutely NO discussions in the FA thread.
NO discussion in the Cut Thread.
Search for the leading bidder, quote their bid, and outbid them.
Teams can bid any amount on a player but only in increments of 0.5 Stars.
Always quote the previous highest bid until the last 5 minutes.
 
Editing or deleting of posts is NOT permitted and has a penalty. You will not be allowed to make any bids for the next 15 minutes if you edit/delete a bid.
 
You can start the bidding at any price, the lowest value being 0.5 Stars.
Bid based on what you wish to pay for the 2015 base salary only (No signing bonuses).

Free agents that are signed can be released afterwards, but you only get back half of the cost. Round up for cuts if they were at a .5.  This means that a player signed for 2.5 Stars could be cut for savings of 1.5 Stars (Half of 2.5 = 1.25, which rounds up to 1.5 Stars). The only exception is for players that were signed for 0.5 Stars, who can be cut for the full 0.5 Stars.
