Trading
EFL teams may trade through the fourth week of the regular season (Trade Deadline:
Saturday at midnight ET - when Week 4 games are due). Contracts will be pro-rated
and count against the cap for the period of time the player spent on each respective roster.
Once a trade has been made and duly reported to the league membership by all involved teams the trade shall become
official. A confirmed trade is final.
Teams can trade players (or the rights to players) who reject (or are
insulted by) contract offers (extensions and re-sign attempts). The team trading for such a player,
however, must offer an equal to or better contract than the one the player rejected with his original team in comparable
negotiations (extensions / re-sign attempts) if applicable.
Conditional trades involving players who refused (or were insulted by) contract extension offers can
be transacted but an ACTUAL trade must be made. In other words: The player MUST go to the team which traded for him
- he cannot go back to his original team if the new team fails to sign him to a contract extension.
The following is acceptable:
"If I sign the player - I will send you
player X or draft pick X."
"If I cannot sign the player - I will send you player Y or draft pick Y."
