My opinion is if it is easily managed in Fantrax then I have no problem with it. The cap isn't coming after the end of a player's contract. They are just paying a single year instead of a piece of all of them.
I wasn't aware paying future money wasn't norm here, but saw it is legal and it made most sense given both our team situations. I had the cap now but Dumoulin is still overpaid at 3.5m so needed something to make it worth for me.I see there is no real objection to continue having this allowed in the future, but guess I will toss an additional 2 cents:Perhaps we can cap total money allowed to be paid on any player to be max 50% of salary. We have this in PDH and works well as a middle ground, opposed to leagues going all or nothing - either allowing full salary or not allowing any payment. However, each league is unique so I'm on board keeping as is, but since we got this thread figured I'd toss the idea.
We've always allowed trading of future cap, just never had a trade where it was one single future year. What's the utility of the 50% rule? We allow trading up to the value of the contracts being moved. And it was only a couple years ago that we added that rule to avoid picks being traded for cash. Aside from that I don't see the utility in further limiting the cash exchange rules.
