When Free Agency Bidding starts teams should not be allowed to trade OR every team has a set spending budget that is determined at the start of free agency. It isn’t fair that a team can make a trade for additional salary cap space during a live auction and then use that to keep bidding.

Agreed. Budget ahead of time like the rest of us
Re: No Trades or Required Budgets for FA
I agree with this rule change as well.

Doesn't this happen all the time in the NFL though?
Re: No Trades or Required Budgets for FA
I have no problems with teams trading away assets in order to acquire more FAAB to spend during free agency. As long as they are giving something to get something, then I've got no issues with the timing. That's just part of the strategy. Kudos to the team that is able to pull off that quick trade and maybe even overpay to get that extra salary during the live bidding.

Disagree. Its part of a strategy.

Re: No Trades or Required Budgets for FA
I disagree, but I'd also like to possibly propose a change to the amount a team can acquire from other teams from 50 to 20 or 25. 50 bucks seems a bit high to be able to use as an advantage against other teams. It's what, an almost 15% increase in salary. I think an 8 to 10 percent max increase is more reasonable.
