TedLavie Posted March 5, 2019 Author Share Posted March 5, 2019 Quote Topic: 15. Rookies get only 4yr contracts Idea submitter: SirA Current situation: Currently we have a 7 round draft two weeks before the NFL Draft with players in round 1 getting 5 year deals, rounds 2-4 getting 4 year deals and rounds 5-7 getting 3 year deals. For players who have a 5th year option IRL, you can resign them for a year at 100% of their IRL option or you can resign them after before the end of their 4th year for 2 years at the average salary of their IRL 5th year + their BDL salary for their 4th year. Details of the idea: 5 Rounds of Draft with all players on 4 year deals (just like the NFL) Argument for : Standardizing the Contract years of Drafted players to 4 years removes a lot of the need for corner case rules.

Contracts for players taken in the fifth round of the BDL draft would be increased to 4 years. 16c. PFA occurs in the same way as the regular BDL draft in that selections are made individually, not in a block. 16d. PFA selections can be traded. 16e.

VigilantZombie Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 I am fully against shortening the draft. It would be much different if it were a 32-team league but with a 16-team league you are basically having a three and a half round draft. You can still get very good players in the third round IRL.

Good thing we tabled that until later and are only talking about altering PFA and rookie contract length. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirA1 Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 15. Yes but for Rounds 1-5. 6-7 still 3 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirA1 Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 Also you can pull Topic 6 until later as there is no way it will pass and only effected 2020 anyway. We can revisit later. The new Topic 16 that Rags came up with should be after 15. Thx for all you do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Way it was set up is better 1st rounder 5 2-4.4 5-7.3 New system 1-5 4 If you hit on all your first four picks you can't three up them all, you can't extend using a rookie deal so they gone. No thanks but you do realize that if you hit on picks 2-4, missed on pick 1 but nailed pick 1 the year before, you're going to have the same issue in the current format than what you complain about. Really giving 4yr contracts to 1st rounders will not lead to increased importance of FA vs draft whatsoever. Only valid argument I heard was Ruskie's (I think) in the sense that yes the current structure basically gives a bonus to the owners who use their 1st rounder well as the money allocated to those players is less than IRL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
