It might be neat to have a measure like "PER per millions of dollars" so one could guage how cost effective a given player is.

Edit: Wow, I'm blind, I didn't see Toms post above this. Yeah what Tom said!

Might be too hard, might not even be a good idea BUT.... what about putting a value on each statistic, which in turn adds up and then based on the players salary indicates whether the player is living up to their paycheck. You could put players in Green that are doing well and players in red that aren't. Maybe I just want to see Jerome James in red lettering.. I dunno.

picks and cash considerations would be a good idea to make this trade checker stand out.

Martin and Andrew making some power moves huh?

now this is getting picky but a way to select a year and see all the expiring deals that season.

I think you need to incorporate the proprietary WWID function? Othwerwise known as "What would Isiah Do?", the WWID puts together trades that on their face appear one-sided for the team gaining the superior talent, but in reality the trades strongly favor the "losing" team by bolstering their flexibility. By using WWID, users can figure out exactly how to screw their virtual fans into thinking that progress is being made.

case, i'm assuming that WE'D BE the "possible trade suggestor"

guys, the TC is going very well indeed. We should have a beta version by next week. Keep the suggestions coming. We're trying to include every one. Well, almost.

Martin, did you get my email?

I'm very impressed with the comprehensiveness of this trade checker. The only thing I can think of is the number of teams that can be party to a trade (real GM has 4, how many will this have?) and the possibility of sequential trades. Even if it doesn't make sense to list sequential trades, maybe those rules could be posted nearby-- like players can't be traded (unless 1 for 1) until December X, or until after x days pass...

The only other things I would like to see concern the results page. I'd like to see final roster depth chart page where users can allot minutes among the new roster players. You could even toggle a "waive" or "NBDL" flag if the trade brings players over the 15 player limit. From there, users should be able to have that information in a post format to be able to discuss in the forums.

Thanks...
