Pay a portion of a player's salary in a trade.

I'd like the option for a selling team to agree to pay a portion of a player's salary in a trade. This is very common in real life.

As it stands now, adding cash to a deal does not always serve as a substitute - considering cash caps, owners taking profit after a season, etc. A cash windfall in one season does not always carry forward to future seasons. This option should be programmed into the software to work as intended.

Good idea!

I might also add that those types of payments be itemized somewhere (possibly bottom of the salaries list) so you can keep track of what you have paid out. If you do multiple players and have some other expenses, it can sometimes be hard to determine what is contained on the accounting page.

Especially a year or two out.

More detail in that section of the accounting page is probably not possible, but that would be cool too?

Anything that gives more trading options sounds like a good idea to me.
