From the FAQ on home page...

If a person has two or more picks in the same round when winning a tagged player, he will give up his own pick, otherwise the highest pick he has in that round.

Also why is there a $7.1m bid on Matt Ioannidis?

 

[Dagless]

Last one GG - starting bidding on your own restricted FAs - kosher?

I wanna see how hard ADP goes.

 

[Blacky]

You said the opposite last year, that it should be highest when i had it lowest. So it was changed to highest not lowest. Now you want to flip to what i originally had.

No I didn’t

receipts please

This is fine. Stops people being dogs and trading for lower picks

Is fine, theyre open slather

IMO if you bid on your own tagged FA you should forfeit the right to compensation for not winning/deciding not to match, otherwise it is open to manipulation where an owner can run up the price for someone else and then make the other give them a pick too

Only if they decide to bid though right?

 

[Exe Gesis]

To be clear. And it's in the FAQ. You only bid on FAs, yours and everyone elses. Open slather.

You do not bid on your own tagged players. You instead wait till others have won a bid on a tagged player and decide whether to pass or match. Tagged players involve draft pick compensation.

So I can’t kickstart (and possibly win) my own tagged player to get that situation over with quickly and understand my cap situation more?

No. Your own tagged players you do not. If they do not attract any bids, they return to your roster on the 1 yr deal with tag dollars attached. If they attract bids, you wait and decide to Pass or Match. If Pass, other team gives you pick. If Match, you get to sign them for 3-5 yrs, no tag dollars, but bid dollars attached.

Essentially...Tagged players are out there testing the market, trying to attract offers from other franchises first. If they get a best offer (winning bid) they then return to you and ask you to match the offer sheet or not. If they find there's no market for them, they return to your team with tail between legs.

MFL is trying to replicate/simulate that NFL concept.

Nah I get it, just wanted confirmation. Makes complete sense.

 

[Blacky]

Don’t know what to make of that trade

 

[Dagless]

Just kicking cans down roads...

 

[LennyHayes77]

I'm sure someone will give us their 2 cents worth

 

[drd23]

There are only 2 types of FAs now - tagged and regular FAs

I meant you shouldn't be able to bid on your own tagged FAs, but obviously my concern doesn't matter if there is a hard rule that you can't bid on them

 

[TheGreatBarryB]

Also why is there a $7.1m bid on Matt Ioannidis?

Surely taking the piss here

 

[LennyHayes77]

Surely taking the piss here

Me or the guys bidding on him?

I’m assuming you’re the owner so why would it be you? Clearly the silly bids

 

[drd23]

I think ADP and Dagless are just bored and so are in some weird game of chicken over who will stop bidding first. Its best just to ignore it imo

You think so little of me

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

I was out at 5 but decided to make you pay a little more.

Stop being value for money about then.
