I think we need something in place so if a player comes off Covid IR before the bidding is done, the Covid Player owner needs to stop bidding. Otherwise, that owner can falsely drive the price up or prolong a bid with no worries of penalty.

Maybe, once someone (anyone) notes that the player is off Covid, any bids after that timestamp make that player ineligible for a "replacement" player to be attached to him. The note can be put in the player's original Covid thread with a reference to where it states his return. So anyone that sees his return can note it for the league, without affecting the bid thread.

Of course, if the final (winning) bid is placed before the timestamp, then the player can be designated as replacement and cut immediately.

Let's not make it too complicated. If winning bid is made while team has player being replaced is on Covid-IR, he is eligible to be cut without penalty. If winning bid is made after said player has come off Covid-IR, he is not...

I don't think anyone will try to play the system this year for this rule...

I guess this part kind of got by me:
"UFA's picked up as 1 year replacements at or below the Covid-IR players salary will be automatically cut without penalty the moment the NFL team removes the player off the NFL's Reserve-Covid list. "

So if you have a $100 player, who goes on the Covid list, and you put out replacement, and someone bumps him, you no longer get free cut...

Seems this was to prevent people putting out large bids on borderline replacements to prevent overbidding?

I see it being more an issue in SAC'd with the lower priced IDP's

Hopefully won't be big issue...we shall see....

I think you have to win the bid and at that time declare as COVID replacement for player X. Doesn't need to be 100cbs...unless I'm missing something. If you have two COVID IR players and two COVID replacement players...do you have to cut the actual replacement or can you cut either one of them when one of the COVID IR players returns? I think we should be as flexible as possible because you never know when someone comes off and this may help in cases of bye weeks.

Well, owners should identify which replacement is assigned to which Covid infected player...especially since they may not come off or get healthy at same time...this will also make the IR board more structured...

Chuck is the only team impacted by COVID opt outs, losing both Damien Williams and Devin Funchess. Please check out latest update to roster app which now has sections for COVID IR and COVID Opt Outs. I moved both players to Chuck's opt-out. Chuck, reading the opt out info, it looks like you need to assign years for Damien Williams now.

Since I have not tried to replace him and he is a RFA match - can I wait to mark years at the regular time if I don't try to get replacement OR decide years when I start bidding on replacement or win a replacement???

Just checking before I make this decision...I knew it was coming...thanks!
