I'm trying to unload an 85M, with 42M of it bonus, contract from my roster. A 5 year contract with 4 years to go. I'm trying to trade for a 29.7M, with 10.5M of it bonus, and I'm being told that I don't have enough cap room for the trade. I'm trading down so I don't understand this. Doesn't the team that you trade with inherit the contract you are trading away and you inherit the contract of the player that your trading for?
BTW, this is not someone that I signed for, it was a very expensive contract that was already on the team when I took it over.
The game is also saying that the cap hit for trading him should be 500k and I have 560k in cap room, so I would think that the trade would go through, but it isn't.
