Yes but the problem with doing this is that it would make 1 year 0.5m contracts pointless. Like Ben said it would make the 2nd year on all 0.5m contracts a team option. So why would anyone bid 0.5m on a player? It makes the risk of the 2y 0.5m contract completely evaporate. Teams are able to enjoy the player through the whole season and them drop them after the deadline with no hit to their following year's cap. Maybe we could do a massive drop discount that goes in accord with the percentages. Like if you drop 4 players with 0.5m contracts next year you receive a 1m cap hit instead of the 2m.
