Rule 8.5 provides as follows:  "Except as set forth in the next sentence, the contract status of a free agent acquired on or before the last weekly transaction deadline before September 1 is that of a first-year player."  While this week's deadline to submit FAAB bids is this Saturday, 8/31, the weekly transaction deadline is Sunday, September 1.  That means that free agents acquired this weekend (or thereafter) will have an FA contract status and cannot be retained next year.  Note: I have checked my interpretation with league rules guru Rich Robbins, and he agrees this is the proper reading of the rules.  Let me know if you have any questions.
