This is a great idea about increasing the salary cap yearly. If they can't come up with a range, make it commissioner defined, and let the player worry about it. This also goes into 20 years into a franchise fans are still complaining about the price of $3 peanuts and $50 upper tickets. Also, there is no revenue money increases year to year, hence the cheat to give your owner cash in 5 mil lumps.

Yeah I think it's a good place to start at least. Not sure how it would fair through 20-30 years into a franchise, but it would at least make sure franchises aren't going broke by year 2 which is the current problem.

Well in 20-30 years at the rate the NFL salary cap increases about 15M to 20M the madden franchise salary cap like the NFL will be around 700M. Players contracts in madden will just need to continue to increase or the demand from players as will happen in the real world. But at the minimum the salary cap can’t just freeze and not increase in madden.

I fully agree. So do you think 15-20M is a good place to start on Madden? I had initially though 30-50, do you think that'd be a bit much?

The Madden franchise salary cap increases yearly only for about 3 or 4 years then never increases after that. Stays at around 330M forever after which is not what will happen in the NFL. The NFL salary cap will increase to eventually probably 400M in 5 years and continue to increase for teams. I think it’s just an oversight by developers to not continue the progression of the madden franchise salary cap every year. So hopefully they make the update one year.

RumOak163 I'm tellin you, increasing it, and let me make changes based on my own game would go a long way. One little slider put in would change the entire way that game is played.

Having a slider for it is an excellent idea!

GVRH It would change a lot of how you set caps for specific players. You have to give the young ones a chance to come up, but give the veterans time to manage their funds so they dont go under.

This is the money. Let the commissioner set the rates.
