CONFUSED

February 18, 2013 at 11:55PM View BBCode

ON my depth chart, I have a few players with circles, rather than squares.

When I click on the person it says they cannot be demoted because they are ineligible to be waived.

Did I miss an "enhancement" or rule change?

It looks like this is the case with any A- or higher player who is out of options. I believe they put it in last offseason. It's a bit limiting when you have an older guy you'd like to demote...but we might still be able to waive A- players from the "Promote/Waive" tab in the GM menu.

Yeah, there's actually been a rule that you can't demote A- or above players... and that you can't waive B+ or above players. The admins made it impossible to demote A- players this past offseason.

That's about as plausible of an answer as any I can think of...

Maybe it's an "anti-tanking" rule. It would prevent a team from benching its good players when they're out of contention in order to drop in the standings to get a better draft position.

i think that is close to the answer. i remember a few teams over the years get P.O. 'ed and just drop all their good players. pick up players off the waiver wire. but what happens is other teams pick up the good players and that upsets the league by giving players to other teams.
