Coaching changes have no impact in a pure sim like this since we can alter strategies as we please and playbooks are not a factor, so I just let the AI take care of that stuff. Here's some notable changes:
- Bears hire Hall of Fame OLB Derrick Brooks as DC - Bears hire the late HC and former B8NFLL Cardinals/Wildcats HC Dennis Green as OC - Bengals hire former 1000 yard rusher for the Broncos Mike Anderson as OC - Browns hire former B8NFLL Giants HC P. Johnson as DC (they only give first initials and I can't place a name with the face) - Buccaneers hire former HC and B8NFLL SB-winning coordinator for the Cowboys Marty Schottenheimer as HC - Chiefs hire Hall of Fame coach and HC of the B8NFLL Cowboys and Ravens Bill Parcells as HC - Chiefs hire failed HC Marc Trestman as OC - Cowboys hire Ron Rivera as DC - Jaguars hire NFL HB Ricky Williams and former B8NFLL Redskins OC as OC - Jets hire former B8NFLL Bucs HC Jerry Gray as HC - Jets hire Hall of Fame DE Michael Strahan as DC - Jets hire NFL WR Eric Moulds as OC - Packers hire real life SB-winning QB for the Bucs Brad Johnson as OC - Patriots hire longtime offensive line coach and former B8NFLL Patriots (will be second stint) and Titans HC Dante Scarnecchia as HC - Pioneers hire NFL WR Terrelll Owens as OC. As an aside, the other three coaching positions for the Pioneers (HC, DC, and ST) have been helmed by the same person for every season in B8NFLL. Most teams are lucky to have one person who has been with the team every season. - Pumpkins have hired former NFL HC Gary Kubiak as OC - Rams have hired SB-winning coach (NFL and B8NFLL) Jon Gruden as OC - Ravens have promoted DC Rex Ryan (a position he has had for the first seven seasons) to HC - Ravens have hired former B8NFLL Jets HC Herm Edwards as DC - Seahawks have hired former NFL QB Trent Green as OC - Seahawks have hired former Panthers HC John Fox as DC - Titans have hired SB-winning coach and former B8NFLL Cougars coach Brian Billick as HC - Wildcats have hired failed HC Romeo Crennel as HC - Wildcats have hired NFL OLB Nate Wayne as DC --- KCF can't actually be a real person but he is - greengravy http://i.imgur.com/VfpY7tg.jpg ...

Okay, so there are nine players that have demanded trades this offseason. Six are from user teams, three are from AI teams. All nine players are HBs. Thus, I spent some time last night coming up with potential three-way trades since I am of the opinion that it makes sense that all HBs are swapped for one another given their proximity in talent and also gives you a quality backup or starter at the position on a fully non-guaranteed contract that will enable you to release or trade them again in the future.
That being said, you are free to determine your own value for such players, and I also do not publicly reveal who is demanding a trade. When I send out PMs shortly, you can decide whether or not to reveal that info, but should multiple users do so, I will be willing to divulge what trades I came up with concerning all consenting parties. As a reminder, this is the trade format that we use in B8NFLL Team A receives: Player B / Pick C Team D receives: Player E / Pick F Then there's a 24 hour peer review period in which all users can voice their approval or veto the proposed trade. If it passes after that 24 hour period (no set number of vetoes, but I typically use the level of general sentiment), then the trade is made official and will go into effect once all users involved post saying that they agree to the parameters of the trade. It's best that involved users say they agree during the review period. --- KCF can't actually be a real person but he is - greengravy http://i.imgur.com/VfpY7tg.jpg ... Copied to Clipboard!

The Slashline
This is really just for MZero (assuming he forgot all about it) and Tangicide. All contract related info that I post or PM during the offseason, and there will be plenty of it, will come in this format that you need to familiarize yourself with Example slashline: 3 / $10.0 mil / $3.00 mil 3 = Length in years of the contract. All contracts can be anywhere from 1-7 years in length with two exceptions that we will get to later. $10.0 mil = Total amount of money paid to the player during the life of the contract. Should the player receiving this contract play out the entire contract on your team, his combined cap hits during those seasons will equal this figure. However, with multi-year contracts, the cap hits won't be the same figure each season unless the third figure is $0. They are always in ascending order, meaning the first year cap hit will be the lowest and will only rise from there. Using this particular contract, the first year might have a cap hit of $2.68 mil, $3.33 mil in the second year, and $3.99 mil in the final year. This is useful info to know when you determine how long you wish to sign a player for. $3.00 mil = The amount of the total money that is guaranteed. Guaranteed money basically means how much the team who the player originally signed with is on the hook for no matter what. This is paid in equal installments every season, with this example being $1.00 mil ($3.00 mil / 3). Should he play out that contract with said team, this figure doesn't really matter. It does however matter when it comes to trading and releasing players. Should you trade or release a player with guaranteed money on their contract, you will receive a cap penalty the following season (you might have heard the term "dead money" in real life) that equals the remaining amount of guaranteed money left on the contract. You know how much guaranteed money is left on a contract by looking at the Team Financial sheet. There is a tab labeled "Annual Bonus" for all user teams with a number attached to each player. If you multiply that number by the years remaining on their contract, you will know how much of a cap penalty you will receive the following year should you release or trade them. If the player is traded, then the team who receives him will not have to pay the annual bonus for any subsequent season. Using this example, let's say this player was traded after the first season. Since I said his 2nd and 3rd year cap hits were $3.33 mil and $3.99 mil and the annual bonus was $1.00 mil, his cap hits for the new team for the final two years would be $2.33 mil and $2.99 mil. If the player is released, then whatever new contract he signs will not have the previous one be a factor. If he signs the exact same contract with a new team, the old example figures would be essentially the same for the new team. --- KCF can't actually be a real person but he is - greengravy http://i.imgur.com/VfpY7tg.jpg ...
