As you know, if you bid on and sign a PS player he only gets a 1 season contract.

The main thing I don’t like about this is that it essentially makes it equal to a 0 point bid only giving you a current season contract.

I propose we slightly amend this to be current and next season. Basically if I don’t match, the bidding team gets the player with an X for current and next season. If I match, I get the player signed to a current and next season contract.

We could take it further and make it similar to the XR signings which give you a 1-3 season contract based on the points bid.

Thoughts?

Good suggestion, but I say keep as is with the PS player having a 1 year contract. If you want to ensure the PS player keeps their full contract, work a trade with the other coach.

I do not believe we should change this rule after the off season has started. People have already made roster decisions based on current rules.

The PS rule should be all players put on the PS lose all contract years and revert to a 1 year contract at the time they are placed on it. This eliminates the discrepancy and aligns with the NFL. In my opinion, this is also a cap issue as it has allowed teams to stash both vets and young players keeping their rights. They all become free agents after the season unless the team decides to pay to sign them to a actual contract.
