Proposition for salary etc

[kidd5jersey]

I think we should be able to use this season (since the season is killed) to help reset salaries etc. I think every team should be able to let a year lapse or retain that year. For instance, I gave Morton 4y deal and he's 36. Having to keep a year means now I get his 37-41 yrs instead of 36-40. I would definitely let a year lapse.

This will also allow us to have a stronger FA class this upcoming.

Another idea is to let us use our excess cap this year to pay off future years or even sign FA still. I worry the league will struggle with zero activity.  Additionally,  we could help build minors for unused teams to make their position more desirable for the future owner.

I also believe trades could be open as well.

Please stay safe everyone.

Thanks for feedback, will take into consideration.

However, I had in mind something slightly different. I believe I have mentioned in PM previously that tentative idea is to allow everyone 2 free drops of their choosing. In this scenario we would also role over all salaries so 2020 expiring is actually 2021 expiring (unless a free drop is used). Had discussions withour co-commissioners  on a few options but this one is currently the one that is most likely going to take into effect.

I do see the value in just letting 1 year laps or retain but I actually think 1 or 2 outright free drops is more beneficial for everyone and then as mention all remaining salaries role over starting 2021.

As for trading, think we will open it up September 1st as this is now going to be firm day to resume draft as well.

What ever happened with the 1-2 Free Drop option?

What ever happened with the 1-2 Free Drop option?

Finalizing the rule currently, update will come before transactions are unfrozen, hopefully in the next week or so.
