If you think your offer for that non-compensation pending free agent rental is more than fair, you are probably right. The AI does a good job at protecting their top prospects and their legit stars... but the AI doesn't do a very good job of actually moving players to create value. The AI doesn't seem to have any 'future plans' so to say... They don't do a good job clearing organizational log jams at a certain position and they don't do a good job turning expiring contracts into value. In the end, you can end up increasing the overall health of your league... because if you can 'game' against them... you can certainly 'game' for them.

Blasphemy. Should never be necessary to do this in any serious sports management game. Sorry.
