I really don’t have a clue about the trading AI, as I feel that it has gotten too difficult to make trades that make sense.

I wonder just how many variables go into trades. Obviously money and contract issues, but it could also be variables like team philosophy ( Win Now or Rebuilding, etc.), owner patience, team chemistry, or even fan loyalty. I don’t know. I might just be overthinking what is really a simple formula.

I am disappointed with the information Matt gave about the AI rejecting most trades for highly valued prospects. As I play OOTP, acquiring prospects and building from my farm system has been my favorite way to play. Honestly, unless there is a workaround, that greatly diminishes my interest in the game. I need to be able to occasionally trade a perennial All-Star veteran for a Top-10 prospect without constantly getting rejected.
