Compensation

[mattynokes]

In XAT the idea was this:

No more Type A/B, now we simply declare compensation.

Min bid/fallback - 2 years 12.5M

If the player gets 25M-49.9M in total pay the team gets a Type B comp pick

50+M gets a Type A pick

While I prefer what I originally posted, I'm not opposed to doing away with A/B designations. I do still like the thresholds. Whatever we raise the Fallback to, I think people will still have those "Ah, fuck it" bids in the 11th hour simply because they have the payroll space. So, I would say...


Fallback: 10Mx2

Type B Pick = 25M-49.9M
Type A Pick = 50M+

If a player signs for 20M-24.9M, it's treated like a normal FA signing. No one gains a pick, no one loses a pick.
