You have to ask yourself what is the exact point of bringing in this tool. You say you want more realistic contracts which is nice in prince-able. Yes I do agree a player would be dumb to take an offer of 3 years x 5.1 vs 1 x 15. I have a retort for you though. In the example of Connor on my team who I ended up getting for 2 years x 5.5mil, if jch really wanted him why didn't just go 1 year x 11mil? It's one mil more than his bid. In the end 99% of these guys end up getting the best deal anyway because people can only stretch out the deal so far before it has diminishing returns on doing so and by that time someone like me has raised the price on the player a good amount even if in the end I don't end up getting him. If the tool were brought in there would be a lot less opportunity to raise the price on the player because I'd need to pay way more to do so. So in the end you may very well get the reverse happening and having guys make far less money than they would have with our current system.
