In an effort to protect unsuspecting coaches from being taken advantage of by other coaches, I propose the following Trade Protection Protocol:

1 - All trades involving a "new" coach, defined as a coach with less than 2 seasons of experience, must have all trades approved by an 19 - 0 league-wide vote of all coaches and the league manager. Coaches will have to submit their vote to approve or decline the trades inside the trade proposal posting on the forum. Coaches will be given 72 hours to approve or decline the trade. If a full 19-0 vote isn't reached in 72 hours, the trade will be automatically declined.

2 - Any trade proposal involving a coach with a career record under .500 and a coach with a career record over .500 will follow the same above protocol. Coaches with a Super Bowl win, even with a career record under .500, are exempt from the protection protocol unless they request to be included.

This will protect new coaches as well as coaches who continue to trade away high draft picks to perennial playoff teams.

Are you trolling? Nothing ever gets a unanimous vote of every single coach in this league. Leaving the oversight to Rich & Charlie to protect new coaches seems quite sufficient. As a new coach, Rich offered me valuable insight on certain trades because I had no clue, as I'm sure he's done for many others.

Not even good trolling. Sad.

Of course I'm not serious...

He hasn't even hired an attorney yet to process and translate the 1500 rules we have, and you already taking him to the woodshed in trades. Shameful. What did you tell him in negotiations? That he'd be able to get a much better player, with that 3rd basically 4th round pick? Like that?

Remember, Shawn, a 4th round drafted CB could get a boost and be just as good as Eric Scott, but not likely.

A Power Ball ticket for 2 dollars could win a billion dollars, but not likely.

With some experience, Jay is not likely to buy that bill of goods next time...

Ha! Actually, it was pretty straight forward.

After bringing the roster moves LAC was making to the attention of our league manager, I emailed the LAC coach to make him aware he was cutting players from his roster that had trade value and cutting them would give him nothing in return. I then offered him a 3rd round pick for the CB he planned to cut. If I wanted to take advantage of the guy, I'd have just out bid Matt for the CB on the board or I would have offered a 6th or 7th round pick after I emailed him.
