BIDDING:
- for several players, the highest amount of money per year gets the player.
- there are ways to get somewhat of a discount for one of your own FAs, however:
+ if one of your players was a pro bowl player in any of the past 3 seasons, you can acquire them for $2,000,000 LESS per year (ie: instead of a 4yr/32mil contract for a PB player, it would be 4yr/24mil).
+ if you are a contending team (NE, DEN, SEA, SF, NO, CIN are the contending teams for this activity), you can sign a player who is 33 years of age or older to a discount of $2,000,000 LESS per year. If the final contract for that player is under 2mil before the discount, they will make the veteran minimum.
+ the two discounts from above cannot be overlapped.
- when announcing a bid for a player, all of the following need to be posted
+ team who is bidding
+ player who is being bid on
+ the amount of years you want to sign them for
+ the total amount they are being signed for
IE:
New York Giants
Eli Manning
5yr/100mil
- If you can apply one of the discounts above, after you post the necessary things from above, you would post whatever is applicable under.
a) + Hometown Discount
OR
b) + Contender Discount
HOW THE CONTRACT IS APPLIED TO THE CAP
- because everyone would backload contracts of signed players to have the most CAP possible, all contracts will be divided equally into the years signed.
IE:
5yr/100mil
2014 CAP hit = 20mil
2015 CAP hit = 20mil
etc.
UFAs
players 27 and younger:
- least you can offer is 650k. if you want to bid on that player after that kind of bid has been made, it must go up by 100k per year
players 28 and older
- least you can offer is 1mil. if you want to bid on a player after that kind of bid has been made, it must go up by 250k per year
- a player making less than 1mil annually cannot be signed to a multi-year deal.
- once the bidding for ANY player goes past 1.5mil/year annually, any further bid must be 250k more per year.
RFAs
- to state it simply, the previous team can match any offer for one of their signed RFAs once the period is over.
- for several players, the highest amount of money per year gets the player.
