2023 Forum Mock: Discussion Thread

How in depth is this forum mock?

Like, if I get the Panthers, am I expected to know which of their back up corners are worth keeping etc, or is it just the big picture free agency we're managing?
you can check the depth charts on ESPN for the previous year and if you'd like you can also check ourlads.com for the upcoming season.
 
I have a Rules Question
If a player is on a non-exclusive Tag (propably like Lamar will be on this game) and he is traded to another team we can still bid on him during the FA period since we cannot re-sign our players on here right?

Why can't you re-sign your players?
 
Hey everyone - as previously alluded to, we are doing a complete revamp of FA this year and wanted to post this snippet (which will be updated in the rules thread). Please read through and throw any questions here. Happy to help answer any concerns, but we're hoping this better mimics real life and gets rid of some of the drama from sniping, final five, and all of that jazz that hasn't exactly been great over the last few years.

Free Agency:

Free Agency will be completely revamped this year in an effort to better simulate real-life FA conditions. The goal of this revamped process is to encourage maximum bids early, while still enabling you to fill a hole at a position if the bidding on a premier player rises above what you're willing to pay.

Round 1: Bids 12 stars and above, must hold the high bid for 24 hours to win the player
Round 2: Bids 7 stars and above, must hold the high bid for 12 hours to win the player
Round 3: Bids 3 stars and above, must hold the high bid for 12 hours to win the player
Round 4: Bids 1 star and above, must hold the high bid for 8 hours to win the player

All free agent periods will open at 7pm EST.

In the new revamped free agency process, players will no longer be grouped by position. All players on the move tracker/free agent list document are eligible for bidding. There will be no set end time on the FA period. You simply have to hold the high bid for the allotted time mentioned above and you will win the player. Snipe bids, final five, etc. have all been removed from previous years.

Once the next round begins, no new bids will be allowed in the previous round's thread. The previous round's thread will remain open only to conclude victory if there are still outstanding bids. Bids do not have to stay in the 7-12 star range for round 2, but must at least be a minimum of 7 to start. If a bidding war ensues and you wish to bid above 12 stars to sign a player, that is fine. The same rule applies to all successive rounds.

I mean you have to wait for your FAs to get to free agency, but why wouldn't you be able to re-sign them from there?
Yes, but a player with a non-exclusive tag isn't technically a FA but still you could get outbid on him as everybody can make an offer like we can on any other FA right?
