WAS/DET Trade

[Goldie]

Laim I agree 100% with you, It's all about the money being kept late in the deal and how that affects the ability to find an owner especially if things go south. We don't allow teams to trade draft picks more than a year out. That's because so many owners have the possibility of mortgaging their future otherwise and then bailing when things don't go well. I know I've brought it up in the past, but maybe we can consider something to the tune of that you can't eat money for yours that you haven't paid for. I think it would add a lot more strategy to the league and so far as cap management, because honestly with easy buyouts it really does take a lot of the cap management strategy part out. Team should be able to keep money for this year and next, but anything beyond that it gets to exactly what you were worried about: The team becomes difficult to sell because the owner made all sorts of short-term moves that didn't work out and they bail on their team. Happens all the time in all sorts of leagues, and we have the power to maybe do something about it here
