Trading Rules:
All trades must involve all parties sending at least 1 player/pick to another team. (ie. No trades purely for cap space are allowed).
There is a 9 person Trade Committee (TC) in place in order to properly insure no lopsided trades get through and damage the entire league. Any trade that receives 3 or more vetoes will be nullified. If a trade goes 48 hours (2 days) or more with just 2 vetoes or less it will be accepted.
When a member of the TC vetoes a trade he/she MUST provide their reasoning why. Any trade approval requires no further explanation but any analysis is certainly welcome from TC members.
Cash Exchange in Trades
Cash exchange on contracts is allowed.
However, no more than 50% of total salary may be paid for. The distribution of that 50% salary may be done so in any year.
Example: A player on a 2 year, $10m contract could have $5m paid each year or $10m paid 1 year (or any combination of $10m total among the 2 years).
**Cash paid on a player will follow that player in future trades, and if a player being dealt has 50% of his total contract paid for previously, he can not have any more money covered in future deals.
Trade Deadline: See Important Dates thread on the main Buckets of Dimes homepage.
Trades must be posted AND confirmed by all parties involved before this deadline, otherwise it is not accepted. Sorry, but there will be no exceptions.
(So, give yourselves time to agree to and post the trade, and the other team(s) must confirm the trade before the deadline too. Best to set your trade deadline 10-minutes before the actual deadline if you're in last minute trade talks!)
Franchise Tag
Each team will be given one franchise tag per league year.
Only players on expiring, non-rookie deals will be eligible for the franchise tag.
You may only franchise tag a player once. After the tag expires, he goes into FA.
A franchise tagged player will receive a salary equivalent of the top 5 highest paid average salaried players for that position. (PG, SG, SF, PF, C - We will use what position Spotrac gives a player, so to take away the confusion of players who may be SG/SF for example).
A franchise tagged player may be signed for 1-4 years, with the last 2 years eligible to be team options if the team chooses (the same as drafted rookies).
In the event a team wishes to franchise tag and then trade a player (tag and trade) any team trading for that player MUST send back either two future 1st round draft choices OR one future 1st round draft choice along with a player on a present rookie wage contract.
Updated 07/30/21: Starting 2020-21 offseason we have passed a 2nd franchise tag at 50% of original and players outside of top 10 can be legible. Specific rule change is here:
