2025 Amendment #3 Vote Thread - Trade Instant Process
Scott Hamil
Going to strike and replace this entire section since the numbers change:
Motion to Strike Section IV. e.
e. Trades
There is no limit on number of trades
Trades must be proposed and accepted via the LMS
The "Trade Deadline" will be at 7pm EST on the Thursday prior to week 13 of the regular season
Owners may begin trading as soon as official rosters are loaded into the LMS and can trade anytime up to the "Trade Deadline"
All trades will be under review of The League for a period of one (1) day prior to processing
Trades may be vetoed by vote of 50% + 1 of the non-involved team Owners (6 nay votes) via the LMS
Abstained votes will be counted as aye's
Vetoing a trade shall be a matter of last resort and reserved for instances of Collusion. Owners are encouraged to raise concerns about a trade and inquire further about the motivation behind a trade during the review period. Collusion is defined as any trade or act between two or more Owners for a fraudulent or deceitful purpose
Owners CANNOT exchange money for players
Owners CANNOT exchange their next season's draft positions for players
Owners CANNOT trade a player for future consideration
Owners CANNOT make a trade retroactive, nor may Owners retroactively trade a player’s statistics
Owners CANNOT invalidate or cancel a pending or accepted trade based on a claim of mistake
Trades must be accepted, but not necessarily approved prior the "Trade Deadline"
The Commissioner retains the right to overturn any trade where the above is suspected. In this case it will be documented by email and on The League page, and must be overturned prior to the start of the next regularly scheduled NFL game
And REPLACE WITH:
E. Trades
There is no limit on number of trades
Trades must be proposed and accepted via the LMS
The "Trade Deadline" will be at 7pm EST on the Thursday prior to week 13 of the regular season
Owners may begin trading as soon as official rosters are loaded into the LMS and can trade anytime up to the "Trade Deadline"
There will be no official trade review via the LMS, all trades will process immediately
Owner Initiated Trade Review Process
Request Process
Any owner may initiate a league-wide trade review within 12 hours of a trade processing.
The request must be submitted via email to the league list serve
Veto Requirements
Votes must be cast by email
A trade will be reversed if it receives 6 veto votes (i.e., 50% + 1 of non-involved owners) within 24 hours of the review being initiated.
Abstentions will be counted as votes in favor of allowing the trade.
Trade Reversal Process. If a trade is vetoed:
The Commissioner will restore the rosters of the involved teams to their exact state prior to the trade.
Any subsequent roster moves (e.g., pickups, drops, lineup changes) involving players from the trade will also be reversed.
Lineup Adjustments After Reversal
If a player from the trade was in a starting lineup, it is the owner’s responsibility to notify the Commissioner of an alternate player to be used in case of a reversal.
The alternate player must be named before the kickoff of both the traded player's game and the alternate player's game.
The alternate player must have been on the owner's roster at the time the trade was originally made (i.e., not acquired via waivers or free agency afterward).
Veto Standards
Vetoing a trade is intended as a last resort, strictly for instances of collusion.
During the review period, owners are encouraged to raise concerns or ask for clarification about the motivation or fairness of the trade.
Collusion is defined as any coordinated action between two or more owners intended to manipulate league outcomes, including:
Intentionally tanking,
Accepting clearly unbalanced trades to benefit another owner,
Or any deceitful or fraudulent act to undermine league integrity.
Owners CANNOT exchange money for players
Owners CANNOT exchange their next season's draft positions for players
Owners CANNOT trade a player for future consideration
Owners CANNOT make a trade retroactive, nor may owners retroactively trade a player’s statistics
Owners CANNOT invalidate or cancel a pending or accepted trade based on a claim of mistake
Trades must be accepted, but not necessarily approved prior the "Trade Deadline"
The Commissioner retains the right to overturn any trade where the above is suspected. In this case it will be documented by email and on The League page, and must be overturned prior to the start of the next regularly scheduled NFL game
