A trade can involve players, tags, or draft picks. No cash can be offered in a trade. In the off-season, an outgoing free agent is not eligible for trade. A free agent must be tagged or lost. This will make the trade deadline each season very important, since you will either have to trade, or tag an impending free agent in the off season or lose that player.
Franchise, Restricted, and Prospect Tags are all trade-able assets. But you may only acquire 1 extra of each of these tags
Any trade negotiations that conclude in an agreement that must be posted to the bulletin board under the section entitled “Trade Review”. All terms of the trade must be listed, including full contract information for each player in the deal. It is required that one team involved in the trade post the agreement and terms, while the other team formally posts his/her confirmation/acceptance of the trade as listed. Please review the terms carefully. Once the trade is formally accepted, the commissioner’s office will review it and either approve or reject the trade within 48 hours. If you see an error before the trade is approved by the Commissioner’s Office, you may petition to have it rescinded. Once the deal has been approved, however, there will be no recourse and the deal finalized.
Following a trade, each GM will have 72 hours to update their franchise's roster. This will avoid confusion as to which players belong to which franchises. You, at all times, must adhere to a 40 player roster and remain under your salary cap. If a GM fails to update their roster in a timely manner, the GM will be prohibited from engaging in free agent contract offers or trades with other teams for a period of one week.
If the GM exceeds his/her roster limit of 40 players and/or exceeds the salary cap, there will be a 72 hour remedy period. Failure to remedy the illegality within 72 hours will result in suspension of scoring and all free agent bidding/ trading.
Trade deadline for the season will be August 15th at 11"59 EST
