2020 GMO Free Agent Bids

FYI . . .

When I update the Google Spreadsheet, I often have to do the math for the post time in my head. If you think you're close to the 48 hour deadline, go to "Search Forums", type in the name of the player. The posts returned under your search will have a precise time noted.

 

Texans bid
DT Javon Hargrave (PIT)
$9,900,000

Previous bid (LVR)
$9,000,000

 

Raiders bid
DT Javon Hargrave (PIT)
$11,100,000

previous bid (HOU)
$9,000,000

 

Correction.....Houston's previous bid was $9,900,000

 

RAIDERS have signed
EDGE Shaq Lawson
$11,000,000

 

Bills sign EDGE, Emmanuel Ogbah, KC, $6,600,000

 

Redskins rescind bid on OT Riley Reiff
$13,000,000

Previous bid was CLE at $11m, but they also rescinded on Reiff at a higher number. Not sure what applies here.

 

@Tim ???

 

The Browns have signed:

Vonn Bell, S (N.O.)
$12,000,000

 

It goes back one more bid and the 48 hour clock restarts now.

 

It's a little more complicated than that. Since the opening bid, there has only been two teams bidding and both of those teams have now rescinded bids.

 

Correct me if I'm wrong. Once you have rescinded on a player, any and all previous bids are rescinded. Also you can no longer get back in on bidding of said player....

 

That applies if you win the bid but refuse to sign him.

Not sure if you rescind a bid on a player that all prior bids from that team for a specific player are rescinded as well.

 

Buckeye coming home! I like it.

 

Yeah, that's what I was wondering.

Personally, I don't think previous bids should be automatically voided. That's different numbers and obviously could change an owners mind about getting out of the bidding..

 

What if you just start back at 0? I’m sure there’s somebody (even the same owners) that will throw bids in... just my two cents

 

So in this particular case. Cleveland would have bidding rights at $11m.

 

I was kind of thinking the same thing . . . Even in the Tier 2 bids.

 

Unless I rescind that bid, as well - which I would do (see: Andrew Whitworth). That would put it back to you at $8M.

Now, if you rescind your $8M bid, that puts it back to me at $6M and the 48 hour clock resets.

 

I'd leave my bid in at $8m, and wait for it to get overbid momentarily.....
