I don't want to go back to a true Type A/B system. The reason for going to one compensation round was because with the A/B system we were seeing Type B's getting much better offers than some Type A's.
And I still like allowing for high rated players who did no qualify according to the formula be eligible for compensation. An injury in the past 2 seasons and the player will have a tough time qualifying. I think the formula is right in that aspect. But if a player has proven to be healthy and suddenly goes down for a month in year five, then comes back strong in year six - he's probably still worthy of getting compensation.
I'd simply say compensation is compensation and we continue to ignore they Type A/B differences when looking at the formula. Any player who is under 85 gets slotted as Comp Round B while 85+ gets slotted as Comp Round A. Any player that did not qualify on the formula, but is rated 85+ is eligible for compensation in Comp Round B.
1. JHC's formula will be used
2. Players 85-99 will be eligible for Comp Round 1 (between 1st/2nd). Players 0-84 will be eligible for Comp Round 2 (between 2nd/3rd).
3. Additionally any player that failed to qualify, but is rated 85+ will be eligible for Comp Round 2 (between 2nd/3rd).
4. Comp Round 1 players will have a fallback of $10M.
5. Comp Round 2 players will have a fallback of their "Re-calculated Salary".
I think this is the most fair way to go about it. We'll still promote the mid to low 80s and we'd likely even be promoting more high 80s to low 90s to become FAs if they don't necessarily have to qualify in order to receive some type of compensation.
