2013 Huddle mock offseason/ FA Defense

[DaCityKats]

FREE AGENCY RULES

Free agency and player trading will commence on Saturday, February 9th 12:01 pm EST. FA officially ends @ the end of the draft. The draft will begin March 2nd @ 12:00 pm est.

The top five URFAs from each team will enter the free agent pool. All other FAs will stay with their original team and you can treat these players just like anyone else under contract. You may also not put those guys on your depth chart if you want. RFA's will remain with the current team they are with, but can be traded away.

Franchise Tag: Each team will be able to franchise one of their free agents. This will cost a set amount based on position and will count towards that teams cap. The deadline for designating a franchise tag will be 8:00pm EST on Friday, February 8th. Please post who you wish to franchise tag in the appropriate FA Offense or Defense thread.

Cap Space: At no time can your total outstanding bids be higher than the amount you have to spend! This is up to you and you only to keep track of. If you exceed your spending limit you will be penalized, your total cap space reduced by $10.

Bidding on Players in FA: Players are signed 1 day (exactly 24 hours) from the time of the highest bid.

For example, if your high bid was posted on Sunday 1PM the player will officially be signed and added to your roster Monday 1PM so long as nobody outbids you during that 1 day.

If someone outbids you, then the day waiting period starts again from the time of their top bid. This 1 day waiting period may be reduced to 12 hours or less toward the end of the free agency period.

Home Team Advantages: Teams resiging their own free agents will have a couple advantages. First, they can simply match the top offer rather than having to outbid( When matching a offer please put the $ amount as well). Second, they will get a discount off the final price after the player is officially signed. The discount will be applied as followed:

Final bid: $3-$6 = $1 discount.

Final bid: $7-$10 = $2 discount.

Final bid: $11-$14 = $3 discount.

Final bid: $15+ = $4 discount.

If somebody is a FA and appears on either list please take them off our depth chart until you win the bid for that player. We will use http://walterfootbal...m/offseason.php .This site still have not put up all the teams FA so this will be updated. Used the best players on the list,some kickers where skipped over if a better prospect was on the list.

if you dont have the cap space, you cannot use the tag.last year we didnt put a price on the ta,g but it made people tag people like Shockey. and it just makes since to have a price, and more realistic.what you think about allowing teams over the cap to cut 1 player to free up some cap room?

[toldozer]

I think any team should be allowed to cut a player if you allow some to do it.

Gotcha, when will we know our respective cap dollar holdings?

Cutting one player for cap space seems reasonable.

I'm trying to make sure I can retain my starting Left Tackle!
