I have a franchise over the cap and too many players. Tried to trade a player for picks. It would not let the trade through. Can I not trade to get under the cap?

I have never had that happen.

You will only be able to process a trade that gets you under the cap. Unfortunately, no matter how helpful a trade might get you closer to the cap, if it doesn’t get you under, it won’t process.

Yeah, it’s reqlly frustrating. You should at least be allowed to trade if it lowers your cap when you’re over. I’ve complained about it before to no avail.
