How this works is you take the players FP for both the current and prior season, multiply that by 0.025 (in millions) and the greater of those two values is your extension value.
Super supportive but if we do this let's get it right across the board. The greater of the two years could be an outlier and makes no attempt to account for historical production. Use the greater of the two values for rookies that will be signed to prospect discounts, but the average for extension values.
We've always done the 2 year thing. I'm not exactly sure how average would work, but, wouldn't an average also include some outlier numbers? Like guys who drop off quickly like Corey Perry?
Yes which is why an average of the last 3 years is best.
I don't really like using averages. Say a player gets injured and misses and entire season 3 years ago. Then has two high seasons where he shows he's a top player again. You would get a 33% discount on his resign just because he missed a year 3 years ago?
