News Flash: Type A Players Draft Pick Compensation

[Flash]

 :bacon:Please review the following in regards to the signing of these free agents.  We will no longer have a Compensation Round.

For 2018 and subsequent years thereafter:

1: Continue one draft pick compensation for Type A free agents;
2: There shall no longer be any protection of 1st Round Picks for the top ten teams in the draft (since they are losing a later round pick);
3: Draft compensation would be a 3rd Round pick--which would be taken in the same spot as the team who signed the free agent would normally have.
4: Compensation would be tied to a player who has been on a team the entire season.
5: If a Type A free agent is signed to a contract of $52.0m, or more, then the team signing that player will give up their 2nd and 5th Round picks to the player's former team.
