I guess I'm confused. Cdawg said "since this system has gone into effect, no Type A player has been signed to less than a 2 year 16M deal."
To which appears as if he's saying that anyone who has been signed as a Type A has gotten 16M/2 value (or 14M/2 when Type A was 14M/1). I went back and changed the "Would've Needed" value for 14M/2 where appropriate as it should have been.
Regardless of all of this. The main point for this is on the releasing team to make it more of a risk. It's not just "adding a second year", it's doubling the amount owed if the player returns. It won't affect the players who are truly worth Type A and will push the borderline guys to Type B.
