I've been reviewing the LEAGUE RULES... and found a rule I wasn't aware of:

9B. In-Season Free Agent Acquisitions

The In-Season Free Agency period begins at 12:00am ET the same evening the Off Season UFA period ends, and ends at the start of the 1st game in week 16 of the NFL season, however, Rosters are frozen at the beginning of the week 14 games for non-playoff teams, and the minute a team is eliminated from the playoffs or wins the Frenzy Bowl, whichever comes first. Any players acquired by playoff teams between weeks 14 and 16 may only be assigned 1 year contracts and CANNOT be declared as RFA's the following season.

Actually, I knew you couldn't assign a player picked up during the playoffs for more than ONE contract year. But I didn't remember that he was subsequently RFA ineligible.

WHY AM I BRINGING THIS UP?

I had placed a RFA designation on RB J. Harrison. He's not eligible. Instead, would you permit me to place TE B. Celek back on the RFA list (2nd round, 400 cbs)? I had him in there for a bit, before pulling him in favor of Big Ben.

Thoughts?
