I'll jump in. If UFA's aren't getting processed until at least after July 3rd, then I am not doing a side deal for a UFA whether to trade for or trade out.

Doing a side deal now means I can't do anything with those assets I've agreed to move and I have to just wait.

If some GMs want to have discussions in advance, and come post-July 3rd those teams still have the assets and want to make the trade, then I think it's fine.

But personally I don't think it is the best use of time...too much could change.
