Contract declarations and whatnot are due the day after the 3rd week of pre-season games (excluding the HOF game), thus
for the 2015 season that will be Monday August 31st.
Quote:
9. Off Season Free Agency will end the day after the 3rd Preseason game ends (for most NFL teams). At that time, all active bids will be finalized. For any player with an active (not yet final) bid, the highest bid to be electronically postmarked (determined by the mail server time-stamp) prior to this time will be declared the winning bid. In Season Free Agency will open the day after.
It is your responsibility, as owner, to meet the minimum roster requirements outlined previously,at a flexible date each year that basically commences the day after the 3rd pre-season games end (4th for the few teams that play 5) or a 500cb penalty will be assessed (per player).
