    Eb, I'm gonna release a couple players

    DT- Marcus Bell
    OT- Mike Williams

    Bell's salary is 100k. It will be a 50k cap hit.

    Williams' is 1m. It will be a 500k cap hit.

    Total it will free up 550k and 2 much needed roster spots now.

    I'm going to cut my rookie, ILB Lance Mitchell. He's only making $100k for the year, but his roster spot is needed.

    I didn't think we were able to cut during this draft....
    "'Clean up your room.', 'Stand up straight.', 'Pick up your feet.', 'Take it like a man.', 'Be nice to your sister.', 'Don't mix beer and wine, ever.'. Oh yeah, 'Don't drive on the railroad track.'"

    "Eh, Phil. That's one I happen to agree with."

    no trading, but as far as I know, cutting is allowed. I already cut one player earlier when I realized he wasnt a Gunner (Brandon Short) and Eb took care of it.

    Not that anyone is doing this - but theoretically then I could drop someone who is high priced and immediately re-pick them up in today's round then...

    nope. Anyone who is released is not eligible to be picked up until he clears thru waivers after the draft.

    Re: Eb, I'm gonna release a couple players

    And I was looking at my roster and realized that I had another Guard that I got in a trade from the LA Playas. So I don't need G Milford Brown. I will pay whatever it costs to release him back into the FA pool. I have 4 main holes on my team that need to be filled. I have no need for 5 guards, especially when I still need another safety, DT, LS, and returner. If I am forced to keep Brown, that leaves me only 3 roster spots left and is not enough to fill my holes, unless I can hold onto 54 players....

    just like the real NFL...you can cut guys and pay the salary cap price...in theory you could pick them back up but you'd be waiting a round - if it is a quality player he won't make it back to the roster...and if it looks shaky - like you drop somebody, another owner picks him up and then you trade for him I will nix the trade




    For all the education and practice each of us undergoes, the achievment of mastery is ultimately the outcome of a personal quest for understanding.
