Not many people care about coaches and I wouldn't use this feature. Only coach that really matters is the head coach, for his playbook. The rest is fluff.

agreed. But Ive got a HC id love to trade ;)
the closer MFN gets to what is available to NFL owners and GMs, the better the game will be.
If the NFL allows coaching trades, so should MFN.

It is a NFL sim, after all.
If it's in the current CBA, it needs to be in MFN.

Trading coaches should still be last on the list. First on the list should be IR with a return allowed. If a player has an injury of Out 8 weeks early in the season, you either carry him as inactive or IR him and lose him for the season even though he's healthy 8 weeks later with games left to play.

If it's in the current NFL CBA. I would really like it to be in MFN. Proper IR, signing bonuses, 17 week regular season - all of it :)

As far as trading coaches in MFN related to user application - playbooks trend. Logically, coaches who have such playbooks would become more in demand - and currently already do (coach poaching ripple effect).
I don't see HC's being traded regularly should MFN eventually include trading of coaches, but I'd wager a bouquet of flowers users would happily trade coordinator and position coaches that possess the current must have playbook to other users for picks and/or players.

omg, I never really paid attention to trading for coaches in the NFL.
But giving up a 1st and 2nd rounder? Man it's got my attention now. lol
