Title: RC - PLease Vote on Whether to Allow League Transfers RC Only
Post by: rcankosy on May 06, 2013, 08:17:29 AM
Let me start by saying that my following words are not directed at anyone in particular and certainly not meant to offend anyone. 

I have always been dead set against league transfers.  I believe that it removes the critical incentive for owners to improve their existing teams.  Furthermore, it leads to a "squatting" element whereby we are simply rewarding tenure and the patience to stick something out. 

I believe that the ability for teams to sign minor league players for minimal cost outside the normal draft allows any team to improve rapidly.  Lastly, removing the draft bonuses should also allow cap strapped struggling teams to add better players in the draft w/o regard to cost.

Yes, internal transfers should be allowed once every five years and a maximum of three times.  This also means that a person can only manage up to three different teams.

I believe they should be allowed but only once a team has been in the league for at least 2 years. Once the transfer is done they must stay w that team for three years before another transfer. So two transfers once in the league and three years w the second two teams. This makes the original decision to switch a much more important one.
