if you cant see me I am rubbing my hands together and licking my chops for people to start buying out their players!! I got money in the bank and would love for that to happen.
Keep in mind that the buy-out rules are purposely forgiving. The aim is to 1) prevent franchises from being burdened with crippling contracts and 2) to replenish the free-agency pool. If as a result GM's are able to wiggle out tough contracts I think it's all well and good.
Let's have a discussion about buy-outs.If you bid on a player, win him then buy him out......You should not be able to use an exemption and essentially win back the player at a reduced salary.I would like to see a time added (30 days) before you can even bid on a released player.We need to correct the rule to make this a better league.
....the player being bought out goes into the Free agent pool and is available for any team to bid on in the open market.
What I believe the discount allows for is the ability of teams in this 30 team league to bid aggressively to build a contender quickly.
