Bidding begins Sunday, 1/8/17
The rules for RFA can be found here
From Rule 6: Free Agent Process and Bidding:
"All bids must be Private Messaged (PM'ed) to "Free Agent Bids". The administrator parsing out the bids will only look at the most recent Message on a thread, i.e. if you edit your bids, resend all of them, not just the edited bit. Do not send more than one PM thread per bidding period, only the first will be honored. The submitted bid via PM is date and time sensitive and it dictates if the bid is on time or late. The time of bid submission, for the purposes of tie-breaking, pertains to the final message on a thread, not any of the previous messages. Late bids will be invalidated. No exceptions."
and
"PRIORITY LISTS
Priority lists allow GMs to bid on players with contingency plans in mind. This is especially helpful when cap space is tight or when we are bidding on many players at once in off-season free agency. Priority lists are encouraged but it is extremely important that they are clear.
Example- You want 1 guy between Player A, Player B, and Player C. Group those guys together and state that you only want 1 of them out of the group. List them in descending order of your preference.
"I will take ONE of these guys...
1. Player B
2. Player C
3. Player A"
Priority lists contingent on player cost ($) will not be considered."
Bids should be sent via PM to FA Bids. All bids are due by 11:59PM Friday 1/13/2017 - EST. Winning bids will be announced the following day and Tag holders will have 48 hours to decide to match or decline. Now on to the list...
