I know this has already been suggested and on the to do list but my suggestion would be for this to happen fairly you could have a trade commissioner who reviews every trade and if the trade is fair it would be approved and if not it would be rejected.

Fair would be Brees for -G.O.A.T-.

Not fair would be -G.O.A.T- for Leaf.

I know it's subjective but the best way complete trades fairly. You could also assign a total point count for each player based on all skills and the trade would have to be within 10 or 20 points of the traded players to be allowed.

There cannot be anything like fair trading without a human commisioner controling it.

What worries me here is who is to determine what a fit price is? In the NFL we see what some people think are one sided trades all the time, if someone really wants a certain player for whatever the reason and is prepared to over pay to get him why shouldn't they? Both want the deal because for them it's the best thing for their team.

Suppose I believe that I really want a young LB with elite base stats and am prepared to give up a lot for him as I have a loaded squad in certain areas. The trade looks on paper as awful for me but in reality I am happy with it, I should be allowed to pull the trigger on it.

The same if some team is desperate for a player off me who I don't want to release and ends up making me a massive offer, then I should be allowed to make that trade. Neither of these examples are cheating in any way, any transfer system has to be able to allow these kind of deals.

An arbitrary decision maker pre trade who authorises or denies a trade isn't the solution as it's limited down to their perception and greatly curtails player choice and freedom plus I think another player having the final say on the actions of two independent players is a dangerous game to get into by allowing them to hold power other other game players.

I think a facility for monitoring trades post event and establishing patterns of behaviour to identify exploiters is fairer and much less intrusive.

I would also ban players from trading for first two season, as it's my experience in another game that new accounts are often ripe targets for established accounts who offer poor deals to new players who may think it's a lot better than it is!!

Also stops the blatant cheating of people Creating constant new accounts etc etc

I really could care less how trading was added also along it was added. I been after the addtion for long. time. To many owners fear cheating so much they fought ever suggtion tooth and nail.

But i would keep the system simple.

like no more than 4players involed in and trade.
limit the amount of trades per a season.
a waiting preiord to have the trades reviewed by volteers/public/or computer algorithms.
NO cash or picks involoved in trades.

It makes no sense trying to suggest the commissioners job could be done by humans...I won't do it, and any other cannot do it. After all, the games experience is also about trust, and without any hard feelings: how can I create any function that works based on trust to a more or less anonymous community member? Again, no hard feelings, but this will never work.

Best form of arbitration is the transfer market. Wisdom of crowds. If both players are worth the same amount, they will both sell for the same money. Then you effectively have a trade with just the legal commissions (tax) taken out.

May I point out that companies like Airbnb make a ton of money based on strangers trusting each other with much more important things so it is certainly possible to trust strangers when it comes to trading here. Some guidelines need to be set and things need to be monitored to an extent but it's absolutely doable.

Yes, for Airbnb this might be a valid way, for me it is NOT! If someone offers a room for one night, there are no consequences 2 years later. If a manager allows a trade, he mighht screw the league 2 years later. Worse, could be very well the manager who allowed the trade isnt even part of RZA anymore...

I understand, I was just saying that it's possible to trust strangers
