I believe where we stand with this as follows:-The RFA 'tag' will not be an option that teams can choose for their players with expiring contracts from now on. All of their expiring contracts that are not retained will be either a Type A, Type B, or unrated free agent. Essentially, all players not re-signed will automatically be tagged as RFA's.-A team that previously owned a player will not have the option to 'match' the winning bid of another team. They will either receive a compensation pick (if a Type A or Type B) or lose the player entirely if they were not the winning bid. Said team will still be allowed to bid on a player to win them to their team though.-A team that previously owned a player is not required to make at least one bid in order to acquire compensation (if a Type A or Type B player). The only instance said team can/should bid is they want to re-sign the player to their own team.Please correct any mistakes I may have made. I believe we have heard from a few gentlemen that support the measure (Dan, Colby, Corey, myself), but some more supporting votes, especially from the more experienced members (Roy, Ben, Mike, Jeff, Rick, Rob, Aubrey, the Chris's) should probably get this passed if the majority agrees.
Jake,I believe you meant to say the following:Essentially, all players not re-signed will automatically be tagged as FA's (not RFA's since they will no longer exist).If that is correct, I am on board.
