It's a matter being discussed. 

these trades should automatically be confirmed for lack of effort.  He should also be replaced and I'm sure that is being discussed.

I would make the suggestion of erasing all those trades(they haven't been confirmed so they haven't gone through), basically resetting the Saints roster back to what it was when the rosters locked, returning players/picks to the teams he was discussing trades with. Find a new GM and let the new GM make trades as he sees fit. That way a new GM doesn't have to deal with the mess he's created, and can run things how they want.

I know that would seem unlikely doing a reset on a team but it's the only fair way of handling this situation.

It's a bit early to move for removal and replacement. In any case, if it did ever occur, the trades would likely be rescinded.

I'm ok with this as well

[rmw10]

Winchester has been placed on hold until everything is in order. Technically, he has not confirmed any of the trades. Sorry to those who have worked out a deal, but whether or not they become official is completely up in the air at this point. I can say that none will become official until we have (1) updated SoF and depth chart and (2) official confirmation on his end. 

[Archeearl92]

I would be fine with replacing him as well. Give a guy a fresh start with the Saints and let him work this cap mess out before FA starts..

Whats gonna happen with the Chiefs? No activity at all since the game started. Is that beeing discussed as well?

Guys, this has become ridiculous:

He's completely missed a point in the first place and hasn't made any real effort on getting it together, leaving people to hang on number of trades. Lot of those trades should be questioned on validity, as well.

 

But what about the draft party at his place?

[GrimCoconut]

I leave for a day or two and chaos happens.

So its your fault?!?!

Btw, why should we replace the Chiefs gm? Does anyone know for sure they abandoned the game? Just because they haven't been active doesn't mean they abandoned a game that hasn't even begun. I think they should be contacted at least. I'm not sure if they have been, but that's just my thought on it.

She has been contacted, but hasn't even logged into the boards for 9 days now.

Is Geving going to be helping/replacing you at some point in the game? I know it was discussed, but I don't know if a conclusion was ever reached. Asking because he is No. 1 on the replacement list and we could potentially need 2 (and only have 2).

That should happen today to give hima chance to work till FA starts

Probably. My ex girlfriend always seemed to think that so it's probably true.

Ahhh, that changes things then.

I don't know. I haven't contacted him but that's because I have a hard time using the new mobile interface for some things. I forget whenever I'm home and can use the laptop. I usually PM people by looking them up but I can't do that as easy as before anymore. 

Btw that reminds me that we need hyperlinks to each member's page in the directory thread. You used to do it but berad neglected that and I found that very helpful.

Haha. Definitely true then. 

Would you be okay with him coming in and being a GM of another team then?

[Mt. Crushmore]

Time of the most boring FA period ever for me. I've got a total of 2 stars to spend.

Not really/ I'm happy with my roster. Depending on the outcome of all the Saints trades though I may move one of my CBs

Reminder, 7 pm EST tonight is the deadline for all tenders.

[ClintLB8]

I'm surprised JJ Nelson got cut. He showed real potential as a rookie and he was super cheap.

[Geving]

When does free agency start?

7pm EST tomorrow night.  RFA/transition tag guys and ST guys.

[Geving]

Ok. So what's the deal here? Need a replacement before the action begins or not?

Most likely, yes.  The Chiefs are the team with seemingly no owner as it currently stands, as she hasn't been online since she picked them.

Ok. You're a good soldier, so if you put together the SoF for me, I can take them.

[52520Andrew]

SOFs that either need to be posted or updated in order to participate in FA. Most of these should not be too hard but they need to be updated to participate. I did not look for correctness but that will be looked through.

Chiefs - None posted @loyalravensfan

Browns - Need to update current cap, none listed @JO_75

Ravens - Need to update current cap, did not see what it was if it is there @LosT_in_TranSlatioN

Texans - No current cap listed, almost like bottom part of post was cut out @Baltimore RAYvens

Saints - Needs to be updated as I am sure you both know @Winchester @Kyywinchester

[52520Andrew]

Depth Charts that need to be updated/Posted in order to participate in FA.

Bengals - None posted @BALTIMOREFLACCO

Chiefs - None posted @loyalravensfan

Titans - None posted @hawkprey

Cowboys - None posted @GrimCoconut

Buccaneers - None posted @jazz1988

Saints - None posted @Winchester @Kyywinchester

 

I should also mention that a lot of depth charts were posted with no totals. It is not necessarily required but it makes tracking things a lot easier and is not all that hard to do. I can tell you from experience that I have caught a good number of my own mistakes by paying attention to the totals.
