Comp Picks

[Peter]

A qualifying offer of 12M is going to lead to the middle tier of free agents being resigned because they are too effective to release but not good enough to garner that much FA money. So in order to protect the one star that hits every 5t years we gut the effective 80-85 players. Not worth it.

Comp is going to encourage people even as a second round proposal because those picks still have value. I'd rather reward the more plentiful type of FA we have with an appropriate selection than chase a system that only works every 4-5 seasons.

I can guarantee a guy like Wittmann would not have hit FA if the comp was a sandwich between 2 and 3 for example
