Trading:
Trades -
** GM's may trade players at any times throughout the calendar year that trading is not restricted. Trades can be made between two or more owners in the GLS. Trades are allowed to be made during the GLS Draft.
* It is recommended all trade discussions be done through email or texting as clicking the wrong thing on RTS could make it official!
* Only use RTS when trade is official! Once trade has been offered and accepted by both owners, the trade is official immediately!
* A trade must be accepted by both owners and made official before any of the players can be started.
* Trades will not be accepted that causes any team to have an invalid roster.
* Trades made after the lineup deadline has passed (players) can only play starting with the next week.
EXAMPLE: During Week 4 Mercs trade Mike Vick to Pugs at 1:30 PM on Sunday. Vick's stats count for the Mercs for that Week and NOT for the Eternals.
Trading Restrictions -
** The GLS has a 5 week window where no trading can take place. This is from the conclusion of Week 13 (Trade Deadline) to the conclusion of Week 18 (end of Monday night game). Trades can be discussed and agreed upon at this time but cannot be announced until the conclusion of Week 18.
Unethical Trading Regulations -
** Selling off your team (making an unfair trade in order to make another team better) is a serious offense and will not be tolerated by the GLS. If a team is accused of this, the commissioner will call the rules committee to a vote. A 3/4 vote expels both owners involved from the league forever.
** Loaning" players. (i.e. "I'll trade you my backup defense, but you have to give it back after your bye week.") and Two-part trades. ("You give me LT this week and I'll give you LJ next week," or, "Here's a 3 player for 3 player trade, but I don't want to give you my RB until next week. Let's trade the other 2 for 2 now and agree to swap the remaining players next week") are STRICTLY PROHIBITED! If this occurs both owners will be voted on by the rules committee and a 3/4 expels both owners from the league!
** Any GM can request that a trade be brought to the rules committee for evaluation (ONLY once per season)
** Both parties must receive some type of compensation (player(s), pick(s), GLB(s),or cap relief (i.e trading a player for nothing - one team gets player, other gets cap relief) for a trade to be official.
Trading of Draft Picks -
** GM's are allowed to trade draft picks and future draft picks in the GLS. To trade draft picks, the owners must declare which round(s)/year(s) draft picks are involved in the trade and the team that owns the pick. Trading for undetermined draft picks will not be allowed!
Trading of Future Draft Picks -
** Future picks may only be traded two years in advance. (RTS will only allow 2 years in advance to be traded)
Trade Deadline -
** The trade deadline is at the conclusion of the Monday night game of Week 13 of the NFL season. No trade will be allowed after that deadline even if it was offered before the deadline. Trading will reopen after the GLS championship game is completed and a champion is crowned.
Trading Tagged Players (Franchise and Transition) -
Each franchise can only use ONE of each tags per year. If a franchise wants to take a risk of acquiring a tagged player with the chance to lose player they just traded for it is their prerogative. ..... The new owner would receive the compensation (i.e draft pick) ...
ONE CAVEAT...
**** If a franchise trades away a player they tagged that franchise gives up their right to receive GLB compensation for losing said player. ****
EX: I tag Olsen (25 GLB's_) .. I trade him to Mat ... Mat now has rights to 2 franchise tagged players (one he used himself and one he acquired) ...Mat loses Olsen in RFA.. Mat receives the first round draft pick compensation (rights to tagged player) .. I DO NOT get the $25 GLB's back I paid for tag.
