here is my idea for a new system:
1. each team can resign one player per season.
2. each team gets one "franchise tag" to use each season. same deadline and general mechanics as resignings. it signs any unretired and unsigned player who finished the season on your team to a one year max contract, or of a value eric feels appropriate based on some kind of math chart thing. a player cannot be tagged in consecutive seasons. tags are not tradeable assets.

I feel like it’s worth clarifying that you can accept one re-sign under this proposal, correct?
You can re-sign other guys but you have to go through the normal FA bidding process?

I like the accept one resign.
I don’t like the franchise tag.
In fact, I feel like they kind of work against each other. Are we trying to force more talent into the FA pool or not?

I like one resigning, not the franchise tag as well

I understand the point of this but I do not like the first option. If I can (have the cap room) I would like to be able to resign my players. I will say I am not totally opposed to the franchise tag idea.

"Teams can only accept 1 re-sign above the soft cap"

But isnt that the point of having birds on someone and the purpose of a soft cap?? What happens if you have multiple high end players that are on larger contracts and have role players that have smaller contracts. These are going to be role players but you still need to fill out a roster. You have one LLE, one MLE then would have to use league minimums. Using Dirt as an example he has 3 players that would take him over the soft cap. He would then have to fill out a roster with one MLE, one LLE and 7 league mins? Unless I am thinking about this all wrong.

Unless I am thinking about this all wrong. he would not be barred from offering his expiring free agents with birds in Day 1 of FA, he still has an advantage to re-sign them. I think there is a little semantic confusion here, and maybe I misunderstood the OP of the thread, but I believe we are only interested in getting rid of multiple "re-signs" in the effect where they are automatically re-signed and accepted in the re-signing thread. Therefore, Dirt would have to choose 1 of his expiring players to "guaranteed re-sign", but then have a small chance of losing the others in FA.

Thank you for the clarification.

The purpose of this rule would be forcing more talent to actually have to go into the free agency period. They can still accept an offer from their current team and go back, but it would make the Free Agent pools more attractive and make things more exciting.

The mistake in this poll was including two changes in one poll. I wholeheartedly support option 1 but voted no in the poll because of the second one.

Another idea could be to limit signings to 5 years. One strategy with this rule that GM's will do is start offering longer contracts in tiered forms. Ie James Wiseman 5 year 5 mil per year, Gary Brokaw 6 years mil per.

The max button in the software sets deals to 6 or 7 years.

i will definitely not edit fa bids, but putting a year limit on resignings would be easy and technically less work since it would be less numbers to enter
