The Dolphins request to drop
HB Steve Slaton,
WR Marlon Moore,
CB Trevard Lindley,
and LG Richie Incognito.

Por Favor, Idk what to do. I dropped Slaton in game and it didn't reflect on LM, do you just have to update it or does this method not work?

You are not the league commissioner, and cannot drop this player because they are not on your team.

Don't think Safari is the problem.

I'd say it's worth trying, it's supposedly optimized for chrome, it's worked for me whenever I have some random issue.

There's FA's in here they can pay. They aren't going to trade picks. :p

BTW I ain't even mad. He'll be a backup but I still used him! I'll sign another thanks! :p

But Incognito is a proven veteran with gas still in the tanks! Those comparable don't have the 85 stamina.

I think I'll take a different route.

The Dolphins have cut TE Kevin Boss after having him all set up to take Fasano's job. With Fasano's offseason improvement in addition to Boss' lack of blocking skills the Fins have decided to free up the cap space.

Whaaaaaaat? I didn't think he would get nearly that high when I dropped him.

What makes it more shocking is that it's a 5 year contract and now its at 8.6 mill. I was just offering 1 year deals to have him be a back up.

I noticed a lot of 5 year deals to guys who are 30-30ish..with penalties now, dumb move.

Whoever bid 7 mill for Antrel Rolle, you win this time.

That's pretty damned insane. And it's for 5 years.

I'm going a new route with all of my back 7. They need to have a high CTH rating for me to even bother with them!

The way Aquaman has been, I'm sure we'll get another period of no penalties. You and Birdman benefited big time.

I already accepted VD, Dansby and Gay are the only ones capable of interceptions. Why I'm not cutting Gay.

Says the guy with 35 players signed to his roster. Who needs backups?!

How about someone giving a 5 year deal to a 35 year old RG. These penalties had better not be toothless.

what if the player retires, do you avoid a penalty then?

Ray Lewis is 37 with 4 years left, the contract was already there when we started.

It worked. I'm good to go even tho I should make another cut. I'm gonna see what happens and probably take a penalty week 1 or so. 2nd string isnt gonna be as filled out as I like. We'll see how tired they get for the Jets game.

They will be toothless. There were no penalties and it allowed teams like the Falcons, Texans, and Saints to get out from under salary cap hell, re-sign most of the guys they wanted anyway, and just cut whoever. Why should that change going forward? I want to take advantage too. :(

I believe we should and will enforce pretty strict cutting penalties. The only reason we didn't is because FMT was too lazy!

so if I get out bid by someone, is my previous bid still locking up cap space so I can't do another bid? Don't want to screw anything up if so.

At least you guys have to feel for Birdie. He got absolutely destroyed by bad contracts management had made. He had to tear his team up to save any face.

Yea it sucks. I'm glad he had a chance to do as much as he did with as little room he had to work with.

Drizzle, I'm building my bench through free agency so I won't end up starting the season with 36 lol.

I know it's just still crazy low. Can't wait to see the additions and how well your D handles the 4th quarter.

He's your division rival. He had all the room in the world to work with, no penalties!

His talent took a hit. I will say he and Live benefitted most from the no penalty rule. I might have come on third from Dunta alone.

It does suck for those who did and are managing their caps like bosses. Wish there was incentive for those folks.

If I had my Snyder button I wouldn't have to worry about any of this. I could convert salary to bonuses, backload deals, etc etc. Not to mention none of us have access to the franchise tag.
