We can criticise the deal all we want but offering a 5 year contract to someone like Larry Fitzgerald by backloading the contract in my mind is gaming the system. This rule has been in place for at least a few years, and I don't plan to remove it. Just looking to get thoughts on the probability of when a player would look to retire, based on the number of years they've been in the league. Agree, why bother offering a 5 year deal. No point no.no.no Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't think we should allow a team to make 3 or 4 offers that exceed their available cap by millions. Think first statement was correct. Can’t bid over cap. Easier to manage. People would need to release players for draftees anyway so why not trade or release prior to making a bid? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always presume you will win all bids and so bid for players accordingly. Think this suggestion is a no brainer I agree, but if we use my suggestion, then only 3 should have to be under as you don't want to land both contracts A and B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As it is actually one bid in reality and either or would be voided. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with this, but you also have to keep in mind that we use the official roster workbooks and if a team releases or trades a player late then I may not have time to get it updated in time. Granted, this is something that the owners should keep in mind when bidding and not wait until the last minute, but you know how it goes. I wouldn't mind providing a little flexibility with this but not extreme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mountainpd Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 After all my opinions I probably won’t get picked to be a GM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think what I'll try to do is provide a flag or some sort of cell use that would signify the plan B option and the higher amount would be used.

Only time it is really gonna be an issue in first couple of rounds with multiple large bids. I actually thought this was the ruling anyway.

BringinDaPain Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 As other GM's have noted if another Carolina fan wants the team this year, I will be more than glad to be a floater. (pick another team) But you must forfeit your 1st and 3rd round picks to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
