| During the week a roster may be edited
up to 11am ET every Monday, and any trade goes into effect for the following
Contest Week. Once a week's roster becomes final (at 11am ET on Monday)
it cannot be changed again for that Contest Week and a roster must be full
(12 players) in order to score points for the week. Rosters with empty
positions after the Monday morning trading deadline will be labeled as inactive
and will not score points for the week. |
|
| Trading Players |
|
| The trading deadline is always 11am
ET on Monday morning. Once this deadline passes, the players on your roster
are locked for that Contest Week. You may immediately begin trading for
the following Contest Week after 11am ET on Monday. Trades made during
the week always go into effect the following Monday. All player trades
must be made online. Phone trades are not accepted. |
|
| A player may be traded for another
player at the same position. The contestant must remain at or under their
current salary cap after all trades are made. |
