Do I go to bed it’s pretty late here or watch end of ufc and wait for results? I'd say wait but my brother isn't picking up what I'm putting down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope. One of my targets had 4 bids at one point I checked late last night on about 15-20 players to see who was or was not getting much traffic. Was pretty set on Hargrave and Alexander being 2 of the GB offers. The 3rd offer was the 1 that was up for debate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EaglesPeteC Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 being someone who is managing 2 cap challenged teams, the box was a game changer for me. Strong add this year @ny92mike 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ny92mike Posted February 9, 2020 Author Share Posted February 9, 2020 While we all wait... Thoughts on knowing the targeted number of other teams bidding on player. Too much info....not enough....or three little bears? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IRL teams would know from the agents if there were many teams bidding for a player's services and they would decide or not to keep pursuing him 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure I will see Conklin signed for 1mil less than I was gonna offer and curse but it certainly increases a players value based on number of suitors.

My guess is that there will be more players awarded this first round of FA than in years past.....purely a guess on that though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
