Week 12 - 2024 update
And away we go with the trade deadline!
Columbus signs: T Shoelaces
Shoelaces has had a pretty good career - he's near the end, but they need bodies.
Florida gets: VAN E1, WAS E1, 2026 E2, 2026 E3, $5M
Vancouver Island gets: J Polanco, Head Coach Eric Geno
Polanco is a nice piece, but getting the architect of the Third Coast when your 3CO is floundering a bit…
Texas gets: H Lum, BAL E2
Baltimore get: S Grayline
Lum is a guy Texas will want to develop over the next few years, and he should be a good add.
Vancouver Island gets: PHI E1
Florida gets: R Donven
Donven is a major piece for Florida's future; you figure that tag will be used immediately.
Delmarva gets: R Snipes, A Carlton, $1M
Washington gets: R Drew
Drew does fit a Washington-type player, so this makes sense.
Fort McMurray gets: M Grant
Philadelphia gets: 2025 E3
Sure it's a salary dump, but Grant was way down the Philadelphia depth chart, and he's going to fill a need for the Fatmen.
Fort McMurray signs: J Smith
They do need a kicker.
Green Bay gets: L Jones
Fort McMurray gets: D Mattocks
This one makes sense; two teams looking at different things right now.
Texas get: L Keesee, VAN E3, CAS E2
Cascadian get: M Hafley, TEX E1
Keesee just never quite "hit" in the northwest, and now they get a little more time to make a guy work.
Richmond gets: T Bradford, M Pouliout
Green Bay gets: W Baskin, 2025 E2, $1M
I mean…yeah Richmond gets better. I Just don't see the reason here.
Houston gets: J Kelly
Honolulu gets: E1, E2, D Whincup, R Ogden, J Sullivan
A good haul for a guy who's very possible to help Houston win the OIFLCup Game
Honolulu gets: D Dunavin, R Volk, E2
Green Bay gets: C Davis, $500K
It's kind of buying a sleeper for a sleeper, but Honolulu gets a little more in the draft pick tank for next year. And Volk should help for awhile, too.
Honolulu cuts: W Mills
There's a lot of those "almost trainable" young guys on the Honolulu roster, so this clears one of those out.
Richmond signs: J Lyons
Richmond cuts: A Rendfrey, J Jones
Getting rid of some of that age and a bit of salary, though this'll keep moving up that Richmond cut penalty line.
Week 11 - 2024 update
Portland signs: L Haywood, D Early
They need some bodies, and these are two guys who have played a while in the league.
Indianapolis signs: P Sachetti
Good to get a kicker who has kicked some in the OIFL.
Washington gets: R Bogart
New York gets: L Roberts, E3
Roberts is an RTR guy, and New York is willing to take a couple of those to increase their odds.
Richmond gets: R Danforth, K Jones, K Lowe
New York gets: 2026 E1, H McCarron, M Dowling, W Carr, N Stokes, future considerations
I mean, I guess it's RTR guys and Danforth is locked in longer, but…
New York gets: A Wund, GB E3, HOU E3, PHI E3
Houston gets: D Whincup
Wund is probably a bench guy for New York right now, but he's going to get plenty of playing time.
Week 10 - 2024 update
Philadelphia gets: D Dodrill
Baltimore gets: M Guiel, $3M
I didn't expect the Breakers to do a bit of a salary dump, but Guiel can play a bit and this gives Wardwick Olson the starting job finally.
Philadelphia cuts: A Rodgers
He was there while Maino was out. Maino isn't out anymore, so he is.
Chicago cuts: R Baz
Baz is probably at about the end here.
New York signs: B Boddington
New York cuts: R Taylor
Jeff's never going to sit still, even with roster spot #30.
Houston cuts: B Brumbach
The roster just had to get a cut somewhere.
Week 9 - 2024 update
Richmond signs: B Taylor, T Gervasi
Richmond cuts: P Sachetti, R Murray
I think Sachetti has a place in the league, but Richmond wants to get some young guys a look for their future elsewhere.
Week 8 - 2024 update
New York cuts: E Redd
I guess Redd got a touchdown pass in before he was given his papers.
Philadelphia cuts: T Gervasi
He's been a few places this year.
Texas cuts: J Kerrigan
Kerrigan is a guy who just never really panned out.
Richmond cuts: M Brake, B Cain
Richmond signs: L Kellar, J van der Worm
Richmond starting to move towards a bit younger roster here.
Green Bay gets: D Mattocks, R Friedman, J Silverstein, J French
London gets: P Murdock, G Peck, C Justice, N Haze
London getting some good younger talent here, starting a bit of a rebuild. Green Bay trying to turn heads with this one.
Philadelphia gets: R McTell, G Robles
Florida gets: D Kreis, A Cornett, 2026 PHI E1/2/3
I mean it's Colin, those picks will get moved. The season not going as hoped, but Kreis and Cornett will help get them a bit younger.
Philadelphia cuts: D Gibson
Philadelphia signs: M Brake
To go from a spot player on an 0-7 team to a spot player on a title contender…sure the cash was nice, but…
Week 7 - 2024 update
Green Bay gets: R Ellena, $250K
New York gets: K Jones
The Mean Machine just want to make sure they have a more experienced backup here with Stokes gone.
Chicago gets: RIC E1, NY E3, 2026 NY E2/3, C McGuinness, G Villedary, P Pappoulas
New York gets: R Lemont
Chicago takes a step back to start a rebuild, but that E1 next year will make a big difference.  New York is right back to contention.
New York signs: S Metzinger, R Taylor
Kinda need a couple bodies after that Chicago move.
Philadelphia signs: A Rodgers, T Gervasi
Philly generally likes to fill these sorts of holes with veteran help.
Week 6 - 2024 update
New York signs: A Albano, E Redd, R Ellena
New York cuts: C Rhodes
Albano is going to play a lot on special teams for the Mean Machine, which is probably a good fit for him.
Cascadian signs: B Curtin, S Craig, C Rhodes
They need bodies on the line badly.
New York gets: E1, $1M
Richmond gets: N Stokes
I think it may be a good time to build the roster you have as opposed to trying to fix the one position that was fine.
Richmond cuts: D Greywacz
Greywacz is a HOF-level player, but this is about it for him.
Texas cuts: T Gervasi
Gervasi has some gas in the tank, but it's starting to get a little low.
Week 5 - 2024 update
New York cuts: O Quicksilver, A Albano
New York signs: C Rhodes
See, Quicksilver was an injury fill-in
Texas cuts: J Waldron
Waldron is an injury fill-in a bit, but an understated stellar career is just about over.
Week 4 - 2024 update
Texas signs: J Waldron, T Gervasi
These are two veterans with quite a long career that Texas will make some use of.
Houston signs: R Heflin, B Brumback, A Attaway
A little late to fill out the roster, but better late than never.
Philadelphia signs: J Irick, D Gibson
Philadelphia cuts: B Boddington, J Kuhn
Irick had a decent rookie year with an 0-16 team, and now he gets to sit behind a better kicker on a (much) better team.
Week 3 - 2024 update
Richmond signs: P Sachetti
Given the immediate need, Sachetti is a nice addition.
New York signs: O Quicksilver
Basically an injury fill-in, but Quicksilver has had a long career.
Week 2 - 2024 update
New York signs: A Albano
New York cuts: D Ladd
If the OIFL had baseball affiliates, Ladd would have frequent flyer miles for trips to the AAA affiliate.
Texas signs: J Kerrigan
Kerrigan will probably see 2 or 3 more rosters this year.
Week 1 - 2024 update
We're in season mode now!
Ruidoso cuts: B Broad, F Lackey, J Franklin
Not seeing a lot here.
New York signs: P Pappoulas, R Bogart
New York cuts: S Graves, N Shito, J Lyons
Two guys they didn't expect to show up in the FA pile.
Texas cuts: A Cornett, J Cody
These were two guys Texas didn't really want to cut.
Green Bay cuts: J Floyd, B Browne, R Heflin, K Richardson
Richardson probably didn't have the career many thought he'd have, but he was around a long time.
Green Bay get: L Ruff
Delmarva gets: $250K
Ruff is a guy who can help a lot of teams.
Washington cuts: M St. Germain, P Tuttle
They didn't win the Tuttle sweepstakes.
London cuts: R Spalding, M Frank, S Duboze
These probably weren't bad cuts for London.
Columbus gets: A Garcia
Los Angeles gets: $250K
Garcia is a guy that can help the Hunters eventually.
Los Angeles cuts: A Albano, J Kerrigan, J Hyman, B Schmitt
Garcia MAY have been that fifth cut, but he was probably close anyways.
New Jersey gets: K Folger
Philadelphia gets: $50K
Folger won't have to travel far, and he'll get to play a lot more.
Baltimore gets: A Quintero, S Morris
Washington gets: A Carlton
Baltimore desperately needed some line depth, desperately. This gives it to them.
Philadelphia signs: A Cornett
Cornett's been moving around a bunch already.
Los Angeles signs: E Drennan
Los Angeles cuts: S Craig
Craig's a long time Matador, but his time is just about up.
Indianapolis gets: D Shafer
Los Angeles gets: R Andrews
Shafer just lost the numbers game, and LA likes to have two good kickers.
Honolulu cuts: R Ellena, A Attaway, D Saenz, E Wilcox, B Maloney
And there's your first 30-man roster for the Warriors!
Washington cuts: D Gibson
It's pricey, but Gibson just isn't going to help this team.
Richmond signs: N Shito
Richmond cuts: T Points
Points just isn't fast enough. May still be a top-30 guy on that roster, but…Shito is a better fit.
Columbus signs: T Iosua, W Pratch
Two very much needed signings.
Honolulu gets: R Stockdale, D Andrews, $5M, NY E1, PHI E1, 2026 NY E1
New York gets: M Grondin
I'd probably like something other than an OS going back to Honolulu, but Andrews could well start. Extra (late) picks will not hurt, either.
New York signs: D Ladd
Ladd didn't stay gone long.
Honolulu cuts: S Metzinger
Adding Andrews makes Metzinger expendable.	P
Philadelphia signs: J Kuhn
Philadelphia cuts: T Gervasi
I think Gervasi finds a job somewhere else, but not much time for Week 1!
August 3, 2024 Preseason Update
Green Bay gets: C Justice, T Trowbridge, $1M
Philadelphia gets: A Rodgers, M Grant, J Tuioti
Philly's starting to get a little close to "maybe don't trade cash away" here. Obviously shedding some salary here helps.
Philadelphia cuts: A Rodgers, O Quicksilver, D Branch, R Taylor
Tuioti was probably the target above, Rodgers really wasn't needed anymore.
Texas cuts: W Pratch, B Taylor, M Rogers
Pratch had a decent little career, but this may be it for him.
Philadelphia gets: C Staley, W Laurence
Texas gets: A Cornett, R McIntyre, NJ E3, $2M
More cash out, and no salary savings with this one.
Richmond cuts: K Domena, E Drennan, R Bogart, A Vega, P Pappoulas
Richmond really need to look at defensive backfield help in the FA pile.
Chicago cuts: E Carlton, F Dukes, I Grimwade, W Hoyt, E Garcia
Chicago has definitely gotten older, but these guys weren't going to have a future with them.
July 25, 2024 Preseason Update
New York signs: D Revalee
New York cuts: D Ladd, D Gerlack
Revalee was drafted by the Mean Machine back in 2012, so this is a homecoming of sorts.
Honolulu cuts: J Camarillo, T Shoelaces, D Falcon, L Hoyt, C Rhodes
A couple guys who have had long careers, but it's about time for them.
Delmarva cuts: K Lang, C Marr
Lang was here as a legacy play, the "Chad Kelly" of the Bill Lang tree, of sorts. And now he's gone.
Philadelphia signs: O Rodriguez
Philadelphia cuts: E Warner
Still a veteran team, so this checks out.
Texas cuts: D Early, J Foster
Both guys probably have a spot somewhere in the OIFL, but Texas isn't that spot.
Cascadian cuts: D Magee
I mean, yeah.
Chicago cuts: D Roth, L Call, A Lance, W Word
The cuts to 30 will be a little tougher, but…these weren't hard decisions.
Indianapolis cuts: R Kuntzelman, M Mayne, D Duffy, G Tennant, A Allen
Probably the toughest cuts Indy's had in a long while. The bump to 30 might be worse.
July 21, 2024 Preseason Update
Richmond cuts: M Phillips, P Sachetti, O Rodriguez, J Lockwood, L Haywood
Probably giving him that contract was the mistake, but it got a camp fodder guy for $180K after the cut, so…
July 17, 2024 Preseason Update
New York cuts: T Bell
Bell is a long-time guy who's been around, but this is about the end for him.
Florida cuts: F Cagle, H Hardin, T Iosua, J Bidwell
Bidwell will move into coaching with the Tuskers.
Cascadian cuts: J Greene, A Washington, J Irick
All three could find a home somewhere.
July 14, 2024 Preseason Update
Columbus signs: J Nash
Yeah, a second QB is probably a need.
Delmarva signs: N Mashkow, K Lang
A couple guys who could sit deep on the depth chart.
New York cuts: J Kuhn, M Jacobs, K Sharp
Jacobs probably has the phone ready for if NY loses someone to injury.
Florida signs: P Scheibe
Scheibe is another good piece for the Tuskers to add here.
July 13, 2024 Preseason Update
Ruidoso gets: $1M
Philadelphia gets: A Cornett
Cornett probably needs another year, but he's a developable piece.
New York cuts: R Worsham, J Earnest, J Nunez, T Holm
This is probably the end for Nunez, while the other three aren't ever going to have a start.
Houston gets: C Fernandez
Mexico City gets: R Stuart, W Ryan, D Morris
Fernandez probably the best player in this one, but Mexico City can always use more talent everywhere.
Los Angeles cuts: J Duke, J Tuia, R Tucker, D Brigham, C Custance
There's a mix of rookie fodder and older guys who have done things before here.
Philadelphia cuts: S Post, C Ray, W Ahrens, C Maness, P Lokam, A Gilliam, H James, J Van Der Vorm
Nothing real earth-shattering here.
2024 Pre Camp Week Transactions
Green Bay signs: B Stein
Not a relation. Also, the five-year deal is probably a big deal for him.
New York signs: R Worsham, J Earnest
Camp fodder 101
Cascadia signs: D Magee
Camp fodder 102, with guaranteed cash!
Richmond signs: B Cain, A Vega
While maybe it's fodder type stuff (maybe not the OS), Richmond is also the type of organization where both could make the 30-man
Philadelphia signs: W Ahrens, C Ray, S Post, C Maness, H James, E Warner, A Gilliam
Philadelphia cuts: N Mashkow, E Hyman, A Albano, S Reinita, T Sappington, I Grimwade, W Robertson
Camp fodder 103 (more players, more cash)
Los Angeles signs: J Tuia, B Schmitt, J Duke, J Hyman, C Custance, A Albano, R Tucker, D Brigham
Definitely some "used to be" names in here, but it's a fodder pile.
Chicago signs: L Call, A Lance, E Garcia, I Grimwade, W Word, E Carlton
The kicker could make it as K2 in Chicago.
Honolulu signs: T Shoelaces, C Riffert, P Jaramillo, C Rhodes, W Robertson, D Saenz, E Wilcox, B Maloney
Honolulu has guys who will absolutely make their 30-man roster in this list.
Texas signs: J Cody, B Taylor, M Rogers
That quarterback is someone that the Terrors may keep on board for awhile.
New York signs: T Holm
Jeff has always had a strategy that maybe I don't see, but I definitely don't see this one.
2024 Post-FAFFA transactions
Green Bay gets: K Jones
Philadelphia gets: $5K
I mean, the savings on the tax far outweigh $5K, and Green Bay gets a more reliable backup to Wolf.
Green Bay gets: E2-14
Baltimore gets: C Duncan
It's not unlike the Breakers to go for a sure thing versus a sleeper shot.
Los Angeles signs: J Kerrigan
Kerrigan probably doesn't make the roster, but he's the kind of player that LA would use.
London gets: B Fortney, 2025 E3
Los Angeles get: E2-12, E2-20, N Meine
Fortney just hasn't really gained any traction in the league.
Richmond cuts: T Shoelaces, J Jones
Shoelaces has had a long career, but this may be the end of it.
Philadelphia gets: E2-11
Ruidoso gets: F Ferrari
It's a bit of a salary dump for Philly, but Ruidoso generally prefers actual tangible "things" to sleeper shots.
Cascadia signs: A Washington, J Irick
Two guys that could make the 30-man in the northwest here.
New York gets: $10K
New Jersey gets: T Rhodes
Good to have a solid kicker as an expansion team.
Vancouver Island gets: $1.5M
Los Angeles gets: E2-18
I know cash is cheap in the OIFL, but that's a lot of cash for an E2.
London gets: R Falk, B Burke, R Zellhofer, $1M
Green Bay gets: J Wisdom, H Black, E2-22, E3-16
Falk is the best player in this deal right now, but Wisdom probably gives Green Bay more longer.
Ruidoso gets: $250K
Los Angeles gets: E3-11
Probably a sleeper shot here, but Ruidoso will take the cash.
Ruidoso gets: $250K
Green Bay gets: E3-15
And more cash here.
Philadelphia gets: R Benefield
New York gets: A Jackson
Benefield is very much a Lysoby type guy, who's played a few different places and positions over his career.
New York signs: N Shito
Shito could well make the 30-man.
Philadelphia gets: 2025 E3
New Jersey gets: R Breshears
Breshears is a guy who has bounced around. An expansion team may be a good place to stop that.
2024 FAFFA Round Two signings
Cascadian signs: T Granlund
Granlund won't be one of Robb's 8 year guys as he's already old, but he's going to fill a role for the Werewolves.
Columbus signs: J Kratofil
Kratofil will help the defense a bit in Columbus.
Delmarva signs: S Kirby
Kirby could win that job.
Green Bay signs: L Venis, R Volk, R Zellhofer, W Collins
The Axemen desperately needed to get that line a bit younger, and they successfully did so here.
Honolulu signs: J Hunter
Hunter is no guarantee to make a roster, but he's got the best shot for a long career in Honolulu.
Houston signs: J Westin
Westin is another strong lineman to add to the Marshals' fold.
Indianapolis signs: N Loughrey, R Andrews, B Curtin, B Schauber, J Fitzpatrick
What is this sorcery, the Racers signing camp fodder?
New York signs: T Rhodes, J Floyd, R Warrick, K Lowe, C Hewitt
A couple typical New York camp-type signings, and some guys who Jeff wants to use longer-term
Philadelphia signs: C Pierce, A Jackson, C Blitzem, D Takechi, W Robertson, H Budmister, A Albano, R Breshears
J Logan, W Conner, T Sullivan, C Justice, C Sarvas, M Guiel
The Founders completely retooled the roster with FAFFA in a way we don't often see.
Richmond signs: D Greywacz, K Domena, T Alvey, A Moore
The Revolution making some moves here, trying to build up the roster a bit.
Ruidoso signs: S Matua, J Bieniek
Bieniek was probably the surprise contract of this session, but both of these guys fit roles the Kids need.
Texas signs: J Foster, L Booth, T Blevins
The Terrors, strategic as always
Washington signs: E O'Neal
I mean, they're the champs, they don't need to make big waves.
2024 FAFFA Round 2 transactions
Philadelphia gets: T Gervasi, K Folger
Washington gets: B Spielman, E3-22
Folger fits the bill for a "this is definitely a Lysoby guy" player.
Philadelphia gets: T Sparks
London gets: H Black
Sparks became expendable when London drafted a rookie QB to eventually replace Gunn.
Vancouver Island gets: 2025 IND/WAS E1
Indianapolis gets: E1-18, E1-21, 2025 PHI E2
Indianapolis found their QB of the future.  Cross wasn't necessarily bad, but Cuellar was a guy they're targeting.
2024 FAFFA Round 1 signings
Baltimore signs: R Thomas, M Pittman
Two guys who will probably get some playing time with the Breakers (maybe not Thomas)
Florida signs: W Pirlot
Pirlot is a guy I've always liked; he may get the feature back job in Florida.
Fort McMurray signs: P Silvia
Silvia is a guy at a position of GREAT need for the Fatmen
Green Bay signs: A Rodgers
Not quite the first round haul the Axemen hoped for, but Rodgers is a solid veteran.
Honolulu signs: K Kaczorowski, A Attaway, J Allen
Allen is a guy who may get some starts for Honolulu.
Houston signs: B Thompson
So, probably an overpay, but Houston is a contender…so you do those sorts of things.
Indianapolis signs: J Waldron, J Owen, M Ogwynn, P Goodwin, R Kuntzelman
The Racers need talent in a few spots, and these are guys who have had some success (with one exception)
Los Angeles signs: C Eastmond, J Chapman, C Wilson
I guess Stackhouse is getting older, so maybe Wilson becomes a bridge in a couple years.
New Jersey signs: P Kwiatkowski, K Vickenlooper, R McMasters, B Cannon
Cannon has had success in this league as a big armed type thrower. New Jersey hopes for more of that.
New York signs: J Kuhn, D Gerlack, M Schweiger, K Sharp
Most of these are standard Mean Machine FAFFA contracts.
Philadelphia signs: N Mashkow, B Boddington, F Ferrari, I Grimwade, J Hyman, P Lokam, T Trowbridge, H Black, J Van Der Vorm,
O Quicksilver, S Reinita, T Sappington, B Spielman
Are there some guaranteed fodder contracts in here? Probably.
Richmond signs: M Phillips, T Points, J Jones, M LeFlores
Three years for LeFlores is fairly aggressive, but it's really only a $180K cut after this year. Otherwise, makes sense.
Washington signs: A Quintero, D Brown, P Moss
The champs are filling holes without regard to price here.
2024 FAFFA Round 1 transactions
London gets: 2025 E2
Green Bay gets: J Niewiek
Green Bay starting to ramp things up a little for now.
New York gets: E1-2
Honolulu gets: E1-6, N Crain, F Zbinden, S Metzinger, D Stuit, 2025 E2, $5M, M Winberg
Honolulu still has a very high pick and got a few pieces to fill in the roster a bit now. Not bad.
Houston gets: $1M
Green Bay gets: C Howard
Howard is a guy the Axemen have been high on for awhile.
New York gets: C Cruise, M Monzano, $500K
Houston gets: D Morris, 2025 GB/PHI E3
I don't know that this is the time for Houston to be cutting back.
Florida gets: N Jensen, E Latapie, R Kern, B Guyton
Vancouver Island gets: E1-13, E1-16, P McLeod, $8M
Well I figured Bill would obtain some more picks.
Green Bay gets: E1-16, E3-18
Vancouver Island gets: J Niewiek
Niewiek is a guy that will help the Blitz.
2024 Pre-FAFFA roster moves
Philadelphia cuts: J Fitzpatrick
Philly looking to move a bit younger here.
Richmond cuts: A Washington, S Matua, M Guiel, H Black
Not sure these are the ones I'd cut, and that now is the time, but Richmond has their plan.
Delmarva gets: B Clothier
Richmond gets: 2025 E2/3
Clothier certainly is a guy the Legacy wanted.
Texas gets: E Rooney, M Hafley, E1-7
New York gets: M Simpson
Is Texas taking a little step backwards? New York might be getting the band back together, too.
New York gets: R Benefield
Philadelphia gets: E3-22
Founders figured that with their age, they're going to do a retooling before it gets too late.
Richmond gets: A Rendfrey
Los Angeles gets: $750K
Honestly probably a bit of an overpay, but Rendfrey is going to have a very very key role for Richmond this season.
Green Bay gets: G Peck, M Frank
Florida gets: E1-16, V Tyler, J Ware
Ware had a good rookie season, and he helps Florida get a little younger in the two-way spots.
