I don't know that everyone knows how to trade, so I wanted make sure everyone knows that this is a thing:
Even though I know you all put your hearts and souls into the players you picked last night, there may come a time when you feel like that player is not going to cut it on your team and you need to give them a firm handshake and a "good luck." At the same time, there may be another player on someone's team that you have secretly coveted since the second you saw their name disappear from the draft board:
At that point, you might want to try and trade the player you no longer like to another player. Simply go to the opposing team that has the player you want, select that player, and there should be a big "TRADE" button. Click that, and you can then select which player you want to receive, and which player you want to offer up (aka the player you don't want).
The person to whom you offered the trade can either reject it or accept it. They can also counteroffer if they want. It then becomes a negotiation between the two of you. Once the trade is finalized, the rest of the league can then veto the trade if they think it is an unbalanced trade in which people are using current relationships to give another person an unfair advantage. We all have 48 hours to vote, and the trade will then go through.
I would recommend testing the system, even if you don't want to trade. Click on some players and see how it works, but maybe don't actually offer the trade. You never know who or what other players are willing to part with unless you try. As the Grinch famously said: "One man's toil waste is another man's potpourri." It applies to fantasy too!

So I want to make a trade for draft picks and cash consideration...anyone willing? Lol
