OOTP Developments Forums - View Single Post - FA signs in the offseason, few days later get traded

Nice work, Nutlaw!

So, quick question: how do you guys think this should work in OOTP? It would be dangerous to hard-code June 15th, since different leagues start at different times.

Also, what happens if the trade occurs on June 10th? Is he eligible to be traded 5 days later? Or does it go for another year?

Trying to cut through the legalese, does this pretty much mean this:

Players signing a contract cannot be traded until the next June 15th, unless they agree to the trade? (Did I correctly sense a player option in there?)
