Yep, that would definitely work out better than a bunch of rookies. :)

to restrict trading, (remember I am THE TRADER), you could just

allow ONE trade to any one team. Meaning Supersloth and JohnWayne

can make only one trade with each other per season. Many simply

don't trade and that is their choice. Some trade a lot (ME) and that is

not to be outlawed, but can easily be restricted to one per team without

having to do anything to the Big Engine that runs the game. Commish

would just overturn any trade made with the same team twice in the same yr.

What a concept? All agree to same thing. Would require a vote of all I think.

Maybe 74%.....if we all agreed.
JOHN WAYNE SHOOTERS.... fastest gun,,,,, trader .... in the SEC. Maybe NCAA

I do think we only need 3 days of FA picking
and maybe only 1 day on the after the draft FA picking.

That is a long pause it seems.

I think the point of nobtrades is so it will represent real college football. It's either all or nothing for me. I'm on the fence, I prefer no trades to cutting guys to mock graduation though

I'm going to see up a poll to vote on stuff like this :)

The allocation draft is done to be fair to all teams when its not messed with! I have been involved in a bunch here and in some of them, many owners traded because of draft times.
There were teams that ended up with extra picks in some rounds and to me its just not fair to
trade during the first draft of a league! Its hard to be at every pick but if my old disabled ***
can manage, it should be easy for you young studs! There is lots of trade time after and during the first season!

Cutting guys is perfect imo. The "rookies" get better until they are seniors and get cut.

I would like to see us get as close to having this mirror CFB as we can. If that means NO TRADES, then that's what it is.

Most of us are part of other leagues where you can trade until your head falls off. In this one - I think we should try to do it. It gives you a whole new (different) challenge to deal with.

Obviously a lot of this still needs some careful thought. But this is where I stand on trades for THIS league.

I'd be ok with every team getting 1 trade total. Very few players transfer from year to year so I think every team having 1 potential trade wouldn't stray that far from the CFB flavor of the league.

My $0.02

+1
Also, a player who refuses to sign with a team because he is unhappy or livid would be the same as a transfer.
