Hello GM's,
I am proposing a change to the Buyout rule. This change will be implemented this offseason.
Option #1: Keep Buyout rule the same, we would stick to 2 Buyouts per team in the offseason.
Option #2: A 1 time cap hit of 80% of total salary. EX: Current contract 3 yrs @ 12M, Buyout would be 1 yr @ 9.6M. This would also extend to unlimited Buyouts for the offseason.
Option #3: We do a tiered system. Buyout structure: 2 years - 70%, 3 years - 90%, 4+ years - 110%. This would also extend to unlimited Buyouts for the offseason.
EX: Current Contract - 2 years @ 12M, Buyout @ 70% = 1 yr @ 8.6M
EX: Current Contract - 3 years @ 12M, Buyout @ 90% = 1 yr @ 10.8M
EX: Current Contract - 4 years @ 12M, Buyout @ 110% = 1 yr @ 13.2M
Please vote on which option you would prefer, when the league officially opens for the 2024 offseason we will see how the vote looks.
