Bidding
Bidding is for uncontracted players only. These players are listed at the end of this post. The numbers before the names are for trading only, they have nothing to do with bidding.
All bids are final. If you offer a player a contract and nobody beats it, you will get that player. If he retires at any point after the offer you still get him and pay 100% of his salary in 2018 (unless a new career-ending injury comes up between the time of your bid and the lists deadline, then you may be entitled to only pay 50%). It is your job to make sure bids that affect you are valid.
Once a player has been obtained through bidding, he cannot be traded or otherwise moved around.
Bidding on opponents' players
A bid on an opposition player consists of 2 things - a salary (between $168,000* and $1,440,000) and a duration (1 to 5 years). To beat the existing leading bid you must:
*Minimum bids are 168/210/252/294/336
Bidding on your own players
A bid on your own player consists of 2 things - a salary (between $155,000** and $1,440,000) and a duration (1 to 5 years). To beat the existing leading bid you must:
**Minimum bids are 155/194/233/272/311
You can make as many bids as you want on your own players.
