trade deadline , IR , waivers

did the nfl move there trade deadline back to the 8th week? if so are we going to too? next with the nfl allowing teams to pull 1 player off IR during the season are we allowed to? and if we do allow this must we pull them off if the actual nfl team pulls them off the IR. finally since the $1 1 year waiver rule doesnt start till 2013, can still get a waiver and sign them to whatever ..right?

I am pretty sure the $1 1 year waiver rule is this year. I even think that it was in place last year.

The $1, 1 Year rule didn't pass until after the March 1st deadline, therefore, by rule, it can't go into effect until next season. Therefore you can still sign waiver claims for and $ amount and up to five years. By rule, the trade Deadline is to be set as close to the NFL one as possible, therefore it will be week 8, i'll make sure this is set like that on espn tonight. As far as the IR rule i think this will require some discussion, which we should have started when the owners passed it and not waited for the nflpa, but that's mine and tom's bad.
