Trading is now closed until after the Roster Cut-Down process is complete.
The Annual Roster Cut Down period has begun and is a one-time, irrevocable, reporting of your roster and contract decisions. The 2023 Roster Cut-Down forums can be found at http://www.aaroncraneinstitute.com/football/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewforum.php?55 Please note there are sticky threads which include the rule for releasing a player without a salary cap penalty, the Development Roster and Franchise Player Salaries.
Each team has its own page. The instructions are on each team's page and are the same as in the past. The deadline for posting your roster decisions is Saturday May 27, 2022 at 10pm Eastern. This is a firm deadline. Early compliance is appreciated.
I have uploaded a current league file, salary worksheet and draft board to the League Files area on the website. PLEASE REVIEW YOUR ROSTER INFORMATION ON YOUR TEAM PAGE AND IF THERE IS AN ERROR, EMAIL ME IMMEDIATELY.
Any questions, please email me.

After some research, it appears while some of the player durability ratings changed with the new game patch, as they should, some did not. There are a handful of non-QB's who played in one or two games, but still have a 4 durability rating. As a result, we will have to go with the temporary rule I originally proposed, with one modification since QB durability ratings are handled differently, as confirmed by DKSPorts. Therefore.... I am making the following temporary change to the current rule for the 2023 season only:
Any veteran player, other than a QB, whose contract has not expired must be protected or cut with a salary cap penalty unless they have or durability rating of three (3) or less, OR they played in FIVE games or less in the 2022 NFL season.
We will need to revisit this rule in the off-season.
