Time for voting is pretty much over so here is the rules that have been changed this year.
1)We will have 1 starting QB instead of 2. (roster will still remain at 15 players)
2)We will go to 6 playoff teams next season instead of 8
3)Complete contract rules. These are permanent and can't have major changes made to them. All small issues that come up during the middle of the season will be ruled on by me and voted on before next year. Here we go
----You can only sign draft picks from the most current draft. They can be players you drafted yourself or traded for but must be a draft pick. IMPORTANT: if you release a draft pick that player loses all contract rights, meaning he can't be signed anymore by anyone, it doesn't matter if someone picks him up, he still can't be signed anymore.
----You will only be able to sign players that are drafted and on your roster at the end of the season
----Traded players can be traded more then once and still be signed as long as they weren't released.
----If you trade/release a player that is under contract already, that player loses his current contract. IMPORTANT: players that are under contract and go to their contract team are not "drafted" players and can't be signed by a new owner if they trade for them. EXP: I have A. Peterson signed to a contract so he fills in my 13th round draft choice but doesn't count as a drafted player. If I trade him away to Joe, Peterson loses his current contract. Joe can't sign Peterson because he wasn't really "drafted" he was drafted last year.
----If you drop/trade a player away with a contract, since they lose it you then get it back. EXP. I signed Peterson to a 3 year deal, if I drop or trade him, I will get my 3 year contract back.
4)You can't trade with an owner more then twice. This should open up the trading with everyone more. Also remember if you trade someone away, you can't trade for that player again until 5 games has passed, this rule was to block any "borrowing" trades to avoid byes.
If you have any contract questions post them in comments, I'm sure there are some bugs to work out with this system but we have worked on it all month. I'll handle any issues during the season.

it all sounds pretty good, except i am a bit confused on the only being able to sign players that were drafted in the same year. so if you sign someone to a 2 year contract and after the 2 years are up, you can not re-sign him? is that right?
right, that way a player can't be on someones team forever.
that makes sense...let the draft begin!
