Trade finder on the owned roster

  1. Overview → Lineup strength: Overall +2.4, QB −2.9, RB −16.9, WR +18.6, TE −1.5, DL +4.8, LB −0.4, DB +2.2, K −0.3, P −0.1.
  2. Trades → the Real Deal Creel (you) row of the matrix: the same ten numbers. The first column is now Overall (it was “Lineup”, total points vs the median lineup).
  3. No cell has a * this week: every team fills all 18 slots from its own roster.
  4. Pure Greatness panel → Swaps that improve both lineups: the Rousseau swaps show +4.5* and +2.2*; hover: “You would need a replacement free agent at DL2 (no available rostered player left), counted at 6.8 pts/wk”.
  5. Click About (?) on Trades: the owned-roster rule and the * are explained.

Why gains rose: under the old rule a free agent better than your bench was already “starting”, so adding a real player gained less. Now the comparison is against your own bench.
