Notes about the Seattle/Hickory trade:
I did not yet process the Seattle/Hickory trade, as, technically, it is against the rules.

OOTP does not allow a team to trade acquired draft picks.  In the past, it was difficult (if not impossible) to alter the amateur draft order for each round, so we could not allow a team to trade an already-acquired draft pick.

Under later versions, the commissioner now has the power to alter the draft order for each round individually.  While the software will still not allow a team to trade an acquired draft pick, the commissioner can always get around that by simply changing the draft order for that particular round at draft time.  As such, I don't see a reason to disallow trading draft picks anymore.

Nonetheless, the rule does still exist and I think that the matter requires a vote before agreeing to change it.  So, therefore, I'm putting the matter to a vote:

Should teams be allowed to trade already-acquired draft picks.  The voting deadline will be Tuesday evening at 8PM.  Feel free to put your vote in the comments here or send them by email (all votes will be made public anyway).  If the matter passes, I will process the trade as-is.  If not, then Seattle and Hickory will need to re-work the trade.
