Unfortunately the answer here is you now have to wait for final bid here and decide. I had to pick a cut off date and set up full offseason timeline, without really knowing how real life period and signings will play out. This is our 1st go around at RFA here, so can see how it goes and make adjustments for next year if needed.
A couple questions on the RFA processLets say I have available to me just my normal amount of picks, one pick for each round the next 2 years, am I able to offer 2 players a contract in the $4.3m to $6.3m = First Round & Third Round$6.4m to $8.4m = First Round, Second Round, and Third Round tiers using my picks across both years or do I need all those picks in the upcoming year? Seems not the best if it is 2 different teams for one of them to be compensated 2 years from now on a lost player, and how would we determine which team gets what year?Second, for RFAs that nobody bids on does the original team get a chance to resign them after RFA using normal extension rules? I apologize if this has already been answered.
The bolded text below is from the rules section. It just states you need to have the picks and that the other team gets to pick. It does say they can take your next years 1st if they would like so it appear to me that you just need to have picks available in the next two years.As far as who gets what years pick I'm assuming whichever team decides to take the draft picks first would get first choice. Its not ideal but that would seem like the logical way to decide order.From the Rules section:You MUST have the necessary draft picks available in order to make ALL of your RFA bidsThe owner of the RFA gets to choose ANY of your draft picks availableExample:If you have three 1st round draft picks in the summer's draft, plus one 1st round draft pick in next year's draft, the owner of the RFA can choose any of your 3 picks in this year's draft, or choose to take next year's 1st round pick. The choice is theirs, not yours
I'm about to buyout one of our league's biggest contract here, so I had a question about the mechanics of a buyout.I see I can allocate the total buyout dollars for any amount across the length of the contract. My question is if I had spare money at the end of a year and want to pull the cap hit from a year down the road do I have to pull the full cap hit or can I pull partial?Lets say I do an even 6.67m a year for 5 years, have some extra cash in year 1, can I pull 3m from the 2nd year? Or, does it have to be the whole 6.67m?
