1. If you are in a playoff run the owner lets you know that you should trade one of your top 5 prospects to get another player to help make the playoffs. He really wants to get in the playoffs this season.
2. Some additional goals like "Trade everything we have and you have five years to take this club back to the playoffs."
2. Due to whatever reason you have three seasons to decrease or increase your payroll by ... millions.
3. The owner wants a certain player to be traded or signed to a longterm contract.
I really believe that OOTP could get a lot better with this. Another idea I have would be to have owner profiles. So you could have owners who get involved a lot, owners who rarely mingle, owners who are patient and owners who put a lot of pressure on you.

Stuff like that reminds me of one of ESPN Baseball's Modes. It was great. I remember when the owner told me Derek Jeter was overpaid and should have been traded. Funny stuff.
But, I'd love this idea. However, it would have to be optional.
