Good pickup for us, getting Marcus Banks with the MLE. He looks to be a better alternative to Macijauskas at the backup PG spot. I don't think he'll oust Papa in the starting lineup, but definitely a guy who improves our depth.

This is why I love the new rules, because it makes things MUCH more exciting and gives rebuilding teams like myself & Minnesota the shot to land good youth in FA instead of building via the draft for four to five years. It makes things more exciting, more realistic, and more balanced. Can you please clarify which 'new' rules you're talking about and how it gave us more of an opportunity?

The one where you can only max one person in-season every 3 years.

Instead of being able to max 1 player every season you are only allowed to max 1 player every 3 seasons. This makes more players available to everyone in free agency. Pick your in season max more carefully.

Also Nova you are doing an excellent job man...Keep it up very impressive what you've done in a short period of time. I hope you make a few more moves this off season and potentially be a playoff team

But its true, most players wouldn't even be in the pool without the modification to that rule.

As for possibly making the playoffs, I'm doing what I can and I do hope to compete this year, but I'm also not gonna rush into it because I do have my 1st this year.

when you use your MLE there's an orange square thing in the bottom corner of your roster page. LLE = green.

Are you being serious? I think you are kidding, but if not, that means I still have MLE and LLE to offer?

Post by nova on Aug 13, 2007 22:11:24 GMT -5
He's kidding. I'm still not sure what your question was....but I'll take a shot at answering it... MLE = 1 year 4.5 mill LLE = 1 year 1.2 mill Did you sign anyone who you dont have birds on/wasnt your mle last year to either of those offers? If so, you've used it/them. If not, you haven't.

Nova, I know how much each is worth. I'm just asking if I have anymore offers left as I know you only have a certain amount to use.
