Hey guys;
Just a note that this rule will be in effect for all UFA/RFA this year where there is no cap to avoid people max bidding on folks and resigning for cheap.
The Mark Giordano Rule: Any free agents who were signed the previous season must be offered at least 66% of their previous contract’s value in a re-signing negotiation. For example, if Mark Giordano signed a 1 year, $10 million salary contract, he must be offered $6.6 million in his next negotiation for him to consider re-signing with that team. Also, to be allowed to drop your player by 66%, you MUST commit to a 3 year deal. If you choose to want a 1 year deal, the player MUST be paid the same he was making.
Keep in mind that I reserve the right to enforce this on max or near max bids. This could drastically affect your cap situation moving forward.
