4/3: GM/Writer Announcements
4/4: Assembling of team staffs; trades begin
4/5: Rosters frozen
4/6: Staffs finalized; trading continues
4/9: Draft begins
Something like that. Formal thread will be posted within the next few days. _________________ Cleveland Browns: We put the fun in dysfunction.

I am signing up partly because I'm optimistic that the trade council will be less authoritarian in its rulings this FFMD, and much more focused on intervening only if there is some gaming of the system.
I am optimistic the complaints listed in the Feedback thread have been heard, but primarily that the Trade Council will be revised in its role. _________________ [quote="KingofSTATS"]Healthy Gates >>>> Anyone to play the TE/WR position, ever.[/quote] |

Only trade I remember is the Dan Connor one and it was shot down because they didn't like the idea of a guy getting franchised to be only traded for a 4th round pick. _________________

I had zero issues with the trade council at all.
actually, the MOD'orship was just fine. Only real problems were the contracts offered were nowhere near in line with the NFL and the rounds 5-7 got a bit borked because people were posting bids then rescinding and changing and such. _________________

BTW, you're welcome in the Chargers forum. If MrDrew doesn't get his act together (like he promised me) and throw his hat in the ring to GM (which he's never done), I'd say even go so far as nominating yourself for the GM-ship. _________________
