From a trade earlier on in the year. The phrase that makes me think that the deal isnt actually able to go through is. "As trade post would not have been official until after that this trade is nulled."
The deadline was before the Falcons deal was confirmed, so this deal should be official until that one is completed
Definitely a valid concern Daniel. Contrary to the label I may have as being a dictator and/or butthole, I assure you that I am not and have always acted according to rules and responded accordingly to league concerns.
And as I stated to Ravens, I'll post here to make my thoughts on the matter of facts known.
Many proposed trades have been posted in a like manner. This trade was no different and was posted according to meeting the requirement to post before the deadline.
The other side of those facts, is that this trade wasn't approved until after the deadline. Which as you say, gives reason to being an "unofficial" trade offer according to the above remarks made on a previous trade.
Being as such, I am more than willing to go with the consensus of the league on this deal, as it is to me a matter of upholding the leagues integrity
