Community ManagerHere's what I've found out about this. What you're experiencing is actually intended.
That 92 overall player only wants 8% of the $120M salary cap as their initial contract extension ask. This is going to be higher than if they were signed in the off season. Also, performance is going to make a difference as well as interest from the organization and other factors. When looking at your roster, there are other superstars taking up cap space. What you're seeing is a likely projection of where the cap is going to go in the future. Of course, you can't pay everyone so you'll have to make some tough decisions. Like a real owner would.
I hope that explains what's going on here. Thanks for reaching out!
I’m not sure what you’re seeing. That 92 player is actually asking for more than 14m in the initial contract negotiation, at the start of the season. That’s around 12% of the salary cap and not 8%.
But even so, I’m ok if there is a percentage of salary cap that players demand, I just not agree that the salary Cap rise should be fixed at 2 m per season.
I’m now playing with salary cap off, that way it doesn’t matter in the end.
Thanks
