This is the place to release your unwanted players for cash.

Compensation for releases

£8m for a 2011/2012/2013 All Pro first team

£5m for an All Pro first teamer prior to 2011

£3m for a Pro Bowler

£1m for any other player

by mikeygnfl Mon 17 Feb 2014, 5:30 pm

Kenjon Barner RB (£1m), Ben Hartsock TE (£1m) have been released from my original 53 to make way for my draft picks.

by NYJ Mon 17 Feb 2014, 7:03 pm

2010 All Pro James Harrison has been released for £5m.

2011 Pro Bowler Andy Dalton has been released for £3m.

by JDizzle Mon 17 Feb 2014, 7:10 pm

The Chargers release Lawrence Guy and Seyi Ajirotutu for $1m each.

by Bull Mon 17 Feb 2014, 8:08 pm

How much is it to pick up a release?

by Barney92 Mon 17 Feb 2014, 8:31 pm

Releases:
GJ Kinne - 1m
Jon Dorenbos - 3m (2009 pro bowl)

by TM Moot Mon 17 Feb 2014, 8:45 pm

Sorry, does this include players we had who didn't make the initial 53 man roster?

by Barney92 Mon 17 Feb 2014, 8:49 pm

I think, but could be wrong, that it doesn't include anyone who didn't make the original 53. Once you've gotten down to 53 then I believe releasing players counts for money.

by NYJ Mon 17 Feb 2014, 9:45 pm

What about players that didn't make someone's 53?

by BamBam Mon 17 Feb 2014, 9:46 pm

Reckon those would be foreigns

by mikeygnfl Tue 18 Feb 2014, 1:02 am

I'd be interested in picking up James Harrison. Just waiting to see how this 'free agency' is going to work.

by mikeygnfl Tue 18 Feb 2014, 1:18 am

Just updated the 49ers roster with the draft picks and cut Anthony Dixon and Mario Manningham.

by sodhat Tue 18 Feb 2014, 9:00 am

Ok - FA works like this:

You can sign any player that has been released, any time, and any amount of said players. They cost the price that they were released for - so James Harrison would be £5m for example.

However, when you release a player you get half of the value that you picked them up for if you got them from releases. So if you fell out of love with James Harrison then he'd be able to be released for a fee of £2.5m.

The cycle repeats ad nauseum.

by Barney92 Tue 18 Feb 2014, 9:24 am

I would like to claim Andy Dalton (3 million) and release Matt Barkley (1 million)

by sodhat Tue 18 Feb 2014, 9:34 am

And yes - you need to get your roster down to 53 before you can release for cash chaps.

by NYJ Tue 18 Feb 2014, 9:34 am

Reggie Nelson has been released for £1m.

Ok, let's see how this works. I would like to pick up Travis Kelce (TE, Kansas City Chiefs) and Quanterus Smith (DE, Denver Broncos) who didn't make their respective rosters. So they're free, right?

by BamBam Tue 18 Feb 2014, 9:37 am

Reckon Kelce and Smith would be classed as foreigns, as they were never in the league to start with..

That's my interpretation of the foreign system anyway

by sodhat Tue 18 Feb 2014, 9:40 am

Yeah they were preseason cuts so they are free agents (foreigns) and not releases. No value was given to the owner of them.

by NYJ Tue 18 Feb 2014, 9:41 am

Ach well.

by Bull Tue 18 Feb 2014, 10:46 am

Noooo I wanted Danton! DARN

by BamBam Tue 18 Feb 2014, 10:50 am

Makes sense, seeing as you definitely don't have Peyton Manning at QB

by sodhat Tue 18 Feb 2014, 10:51 am

I'm glad someone decoded what the hell Danton was.

I was perplexed for more than a moment.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Tue 18 Feb 2014, 11:01 am

Would also say that you need to confirm your releases on the domestic confirmation page.

Just so we can keep track

I'm hoping you release Luke McCown so I can play him instead of Brady

by Bull Tue 18 Feb 2014, 11:09 am

No I wanted a good back up. Encase Peyton was injured. Duh.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Tue 18 Feb 2014, 11:12 am

But you have Osweiler who's alright. Plus you can use him to make poor attempts at blocking field goals

by Bull Tue 18 Feb 2014, 11:37 am

Is he actually any good?

by sodhat Tue 18 Feb 2014, 11:40 am

He has a big arm.

Not sure if he's good yet. He's not seen much action.

by NYJ Tue 18 Feb 2014, 12:17 pm

I quite like Osweiler. Tall is an understatement and he has a big arm. Hopefully he'll have learned from Peyton Manning and worked on his accuracy and footwork.

by TM Moot Tue 18 Feb 2014, 12:41 pm

How much to release Jeremy Mincey?

by NYJ Wed 19 Feb 2014, 6:24 am

Jeremy Mincey will be released for £1m. Now go to domestic transfers thread and confirm our deal and the Mincey release.

by BamBam Wed 19 Feb 2014, 10:30 am

MARK - budgets updated (Bull you've released Mincey whether you like it or not)

How much to release Steven Johnson, LB and Lerentee McCray ?

by BamBam Thu 20 Feb 2014, 11:18 am

1m each. As is obviously stated in the rules

by BamBam Thu 20 Feb 2014, 11:24 am

But as I had to tell you, you're only getting 1m for the pair and I'm keeping the other 1m as an admin fee

by Bull Thu 20 Feb 2014, 11:32 am

No I get 2m.
