Here are some proposals for purchasing/selling players
Selling
As I posted earlier I proposed that every team get one free player to sell. If a team chose to sell other players it would count towards their keepers for the upcoming season. As it is currently proposed a player would be sold for their keeper price.
Selling Alternatives
No restrictions would be placed on teams. Sales would not count against their 3 keepers however the selling team would get a fixed dollar amount ($10?) no matter what their keeper value was. The buying team would still have to purchase the player at the full value.
Example:
Team A owns McCoy @ $49
Team B purchases McCoy for $49
Team A receives $10 in draft cash
This would give an incentive to sell players that hold a keeper value less than $10 but are projected to be more for the upcoming season.
Bidding/Priority
I had suggested earlier that we base buying priority based on last season's standings (reverse order).
Players for Sale
Each team should prepare a list of players they wish to sell. This list will be posted here and a deadline should be made to complete all transactions. No owner should be forced to sell or fear that players will be poached from their roster.
Refusal
For competitive reasons an owner should have the right to refuse selling a player to a team. If a team is denied a player they should not lose their priority (waiver) position and the selling team would be docked $10 in draft cash. The player in question would no longer be available for purchase and would be returned to the draft pool.
Keeper Dates
Keeper sales shall be completed one week prior to keepers being finalized. Teams shall designate their keepers one week prior to the draft.
Throwback
In the event that a team purchases a keeper but chooses not to select that player as a keeper due to injury, etc the purchasing team should be afforded the opportunity to return the player to the draft pool. The purchasing team would receive 50% of the purchase price back in draft cash. The team that sold the player would remain unaffected.
Keepers
The keeper limits would still remain. Teams can only keep 3 players for 2 years.
That was my rough draft on keepers/keeper purchases. If there is anything else you would like to propose please post them here. I will add the rules to the main page once we finalize them. I would like to finalize these rules in the next week or so and then open up the sales.
