-1. Too complex and not integrated enough.
IMO, fix the marketplace so each ad's 'Ad' (text), 'Comments' and reply section function & look like a forum. Make each new FA posting automatically make a Players Looking For Team 'post' in the correct area. But make that post link directly to the new forumized player posting. Basically, each marketplace ad becomes a forum posting with the build info on the left and other quick info at the top. The ad and post are the same thing in the same place, you just have the option of searching through the Marketplace or browsing the forums. And because the 'Ad' area is replaced with a forum thread, any info that might only be in the thread in some other system is also there in the ad for easy viewing.

I'd be ok with this method as well. I like the idea of the forum link going directly to the ad.
If done that way, in the scenario when the agent chooses the option to use a single thread in PLFT for all his players, and chooses not to have a separate forum thread for an individual player, the ad could link to the unified PLFT thread of containing a player forum thread.
Either way, the major goals are accomplished of making everyone searchable from the marketplace and keeping a forum option, and tying the two together.

Add the option to recruit and post adds as a coordinator as well through the marketplace. It doesn't happen often but every now and than an experince OC or DC comes along asking for jobs and every season a ton of teams are looking for OC and DC help

Why do you want to have to look in more places? I don't get it. ETA If this were implemented, you could still look both places, you just wouldn't have to.
