Those Managers who have completed rosters can start allocating Team & Development contracts.

To clarify the rules...
You may allocate 2 or 3 Team contracts, to any player not previously contracted. So any player won during the draft (unshaded in the budget tracker)
You may allocate 4 Development Contracts, to any player on your roster.

The following teams will be able to allocate 3 Team Contracts (because they didn't finish in the top 6 or are new teams);

The Kidds Crew
Scooby Moos
CK10Hawks
Buzzer Beaters
From three
Cameron's Team
Flaps

Feeling a lot better about my decision to keep Ingram over Tobias after watching the Lakers today. I know it's just pre season but damn Ingram looks like the real deal! Word is he'll sign a 5 yr deal with my Devils with team options every year.

 

[K10 Hawks]

K10 Hawks offer the following contracts:

Team
John Wall
Gordon Hayward
Trae Young

Development
Stephen Curry
DeAaron Fox
Josh Jackson
Lonzo Ball

 

[rampantstatks]

Guys, I don't know if anyone's mentioned this, but the team contracts cannot be cancelled by you next year. So giving contracts to expensive players who aren't stars, or players with injury issues can come back to bite you. For example, there is no way I would ever offer a team contract to Chris Paul.

Hey Bugsy,

Just want to clarify - for the nomination round, it can’t be for any players undrafted during the group stage - is that right? Or are those guys back in the mix?

We had this same argument last season and came to the conclusion that nominating previously auctioned, undrafted players is fine. Those players are FAs...

In fact I’m thinking that maybe we should shorten the set groups next season, say to 16 rounds, and then do nominations for the final 30-40 roster spots. Too much empty space on the draft board after the first dozen groups. Thoughts?

Ok, to conclude the Auction we will run nomination rounds.

Those Managers that still have roster spots to fill please send me a private message nominating 2 players to be Auctioned.
Once I have all these nominations I will post here and call for bids.

I am happy for you to nominate players that have previously been auctioned but went undrafted.

Lets do this! rampantstatks deeman87 porley Tony Richo

Maybe increase the bidding pools to 12 after a certain round? Speed things up. The problem seems to be that the rating service rates a lot of washed up veterans higher than young prospects.
