Wait...so I didn't take over a new team last year? And we didn't follow the same pattern of trading away a bunch of players to clear cap? Yes, the team I took on was more talented, and yes I had the #1 overall pick but that's not to say wwhickok can't still make a quick turn around into a competitive team.

 

....and just so your memory is straight i'll remind you the full picture. A year ago I was the "Co GM" to Footy for Orlando, there was an opening for Compton and as the BDL does every year there is an opening is to try and get Co GMs to jump into a full time role. While I did initially balk at taking Compton it was because I wanted to stick with the Orlando team that I had "Co Gmed" (read: did all the work for throughout the season) rather than take on Compton. There was a concern that Footy wasn't even around enough to GM Orlando on his own so moving me from Orlando to Compton would just cause the need for another GM for Orlando. That started a large argument in the league over "should we kick Footy out" and it almost went to a vote. To keep his team and avoid a vote Footy offered to trade me Wilson if I took Compton (note: despite many people's feelings otherwise this wasn't just a "player giveaway" as it took 3 different attempts and a full trade comparison write-up to get the value to a level that the trade committee would allow, including multiple picks and players). I completed the trade for Wilson and subsequently took Saquon #1 overall. While I fully understand that they were two HUGE moves for my team I also made a lot of other moves in the offseason to clear cap, fill gaps in the roster, and secure the decent players on the team to deals which are similar to what wwhickok is doing now.

Note to this story: Footy quit the league that offseason anyway, so kudos to those of you in the "kick Footy out group". Hopefully all is well with him as there was a post here a few months back that he had a prominent role at LSU or one of those schools.

UCLA if I recall

Why in the bdl roster spreadsheet are some  real life free agents are PS/inactive, and some RL FA. Also why is someone like Cordy Glenn PS/inactive right now? 

Overall I like it though, whoever's running it if they need help updating it, you can add me.

Right now it's all auto updated by spotrac.  Sometimes they have minor glitches but it seems to to be working a lot better 

 

How you been dude

Name one time we've tracked dead money over multiple years, you pay the contract out all at once instead of over multiple. 

I'm tired of saying the same thing over and over again 

WE NEVER DID IT BECAUSE NOBODY EVER STRAIGHT CUT A PLAYER ON A MULTI-YEAR DEAL
