Waiver pickups

Be warned, it appears that a player you pick up off of waivers that's in the last year of their contract can not be extended. I've got a few in 75 that I was hoping to extend after picking them up, but the contract button isn't present.

That sounds like a glitch that JDB could fix. It's possible that the players previous team only signed him to a one year contract which would make him ineligible for an extension.

If it's Nauman, he was only signed to a one year contract which makes him ineligible for the extension.

Escalante was also a waiver pickup and he signed a 2 year contract.

Interesting... he should be eligible. I'm sure JDB will see this and correct the issue (unless there's a reason he made it that way on purpose).

When you sign a player off waivers, you are taking over the contract - so all restrictions still apply. You should have seen a warning when you made the offer.

I'm suppose to read those warnings? Ha. Oops. Sigh.

Thanks for clarifying JDB. Learn something new everyday.
