It's not clear that trading players on the block is easy. I posted an example earlier that shows a clear example of the AI not taking a great deal that saves it $20M. PSU's example seems closer to a known exploit where offering multiple players seems to confuse the AI. His point is legit regarding AI logic but not in context with "ease of trading".

Further to the thread title. Players on the block should be easier to trade for as they have been offered to the league. Something as simple as a programmed discount for players on the block, or waivers or non-prospects buried in the minors would be helpful. It happens IRL.
