Remember whomever you recruit needs to be a member in good standing and off probation @Giants56Ravens52 You are fine not sure what happened with your extended preview.

 

Thanks. I was kinda wondering what happened there for a little while, lol.

I've got plenty in my fridge.  Come on over ......

I wish I could. I'll at least try to be there for the draft if I can.

Thanks for bringing that up @Truth  I hate it when someone brings a name up during the draft or free agency and reminding the entire board that he is still available.  Geesh, have a filter..

Yep, yep.

By the way, this is a bit of a gentlemen's rule, but it would help for the newcomers to be made aware of it. If there's a situation where a future FA signee, a future draftee, etc. are still hanging in the balance, we don't discuss them until their fates are sealed. I.e., if we're at the FA period, and I believe that Player X is getting overpaid or underpaid, or whether I want to chime in on their worth, I would save it until after they're signed. Same goes for the draft portion as well.

Spotrac updated Cap information with teams who have the most highest cap to the least. They also assume this amount of cap space available under a $168,000 salary cap for 2017.

Wow. Looks about like the Ravens cap space every year 😂

I'm not going to miss out on free agency because of brutal commutes this year!

Looks like they just claimed the last slot

[ArsenalRaven666]

I am off work for next two weeks but am on a work coarse from the 19th for a week so will only be able to do the basics then. 

Knowing my luck that will be the week free agency starts.   Just what to know my team now so can plot

I wouldn't mind seeing where we are picking as soon as possible, so I can start planning for how few teams there will be left where I'm picking lol. 

Of course whenever it happens it happens. I'm just excited to get started.

Hopefully I'll be close when we do start. The pressure of picking early and not holding the forum up

It'll be in here.  Assuming I'm around when @Inqui posts it for us, I'll retype it out and tag everyone.

Alright thanks. I have a question about players that were resigned by their team counted against the cap on spotrac. I hate to name drop, but a good example of this is Jamie Collins. His contract is shown in spotrac as official for 2017. Is he a free agent in our league? Or is he apart of the Cleveland browns franchise? 

 

How does this rule apply to other franchises with their FAs? Is it a rule where if an impending free agent player is resigned in real life prior to the team being selected, the player is on your team in this game?

Rosters will lock whenever we get done with the draft.  Collins will be a Brown, and all of the newly cut guys will be FAs.

I was going to ask something simular in that what happens with players that get released from your but you wish to keep them but glad to know the rosters lock once we recieve our teams.

What happens if your clubs restructure a players contract, do we go from the original contract or the new one.

Whatever happens before the deadline is how it sticks.  If someone gets restructured after the lock, you're stuck with the player on his old contract.
