Free Agency Discussion (Stage 12 Done)

[Jave]

Heroes have a lot of thinking to do. Collela is asking for a solid contract, 6 year deal. only kicker is the $18million bonus he wants. i would give it to him but at year 6 he'd be a 15 year vet. he's a top 3 QB in this league, but he's not gonna be that way forever. i may have to franchise him the next 2 or 3 seasons, or see if he'd like to sign a shorter deal, like 4 or 5 years. i don't think i'm willing to go to that 6th year.

Haha. Yea Hamilton buttraped me, but he is so damn good you just have to sign him. If you don't you can bet your ass someone else will.

Interest call to make. You can probably work on finding numbers he likes for a 4 year deal throughout the season, but you'll most likely have to give him more bonus money per year as a result. It's a tradeoff because he could just as easily retire after 12 years as opposed to 15. I'd say good luck, but you're playing in my state now.

This explains so much

[Warhammer]

but he is so damn good

I thought this explained things a bit better.

[Jave]

Is it just me or does FA suck this year? Is there a single, "must have" player?

[tarcone]

Tulsa has their eye on a couple guys.
Taylor is where Collela is but a couple seasons older. Thats one of the reasons I drafted Sanford.

I hope that this is a sign that as a group we're better GMs than previously. However, the fact that we have less talent in the league is no doubt responsible as well.

Regardless, whether it's a "good draft class", "bad draft class", "good FA pool", or "bad FA pool", it's always relative so as long as you outgain the majority of the league in every stage you'll always be fine.

Just sitting down to a movie now. Should be done 10-15 minutes after 9, so expect a short delay.

Doing my export now. I'm hoping I've got the timing right and I've still got 45 minutes...

Stage 2 Done. Transaction page updated ...

[sovstar]

tarcone, you didn't franchise Fitzgerald like you said you were going to.

[sovstar]

I'm sure Coder pissed off one of you guys (re: Castor). If so, you should sign Bob Fann from underneath him.

[Kobeck]

Arteaga really wanted to be in Iowa City for some reason. Seemingly took the worst of 4 offers


Lot of Interest in X-Renegade K Whiting. Clawz might have increased the franchise tag for kickers on that one.

WR Bice should do some sit-ups in his driveway to draw some interest

FU Graybill and your past injustices
