Setting Contract Lengths

Postby pokerplayer1000 » Thu May 25, 2017 5:38 am

I am in the midst of my first auction salary startup and was curious how the more experienced salary dynasty guys set contract lengths.

Our league has a max contract of 4 years, min of 1, there is a 5% increase in salary each year, a hard cap (100m that never changes). There are no RFA, and there is an option to extend a player one time regardless of contract length for a 25% increase in salary and also a franchise tag option which is 110% of current salary or average of top 5 paid players at the position, whichever is higher.

If more information is needed please let me know I will be glad to add.

here is the link to the league: http://www55.myfantasyleague.com/2017/home/59960#0

Multiple threads asking this

I recommend reading down thru this sub-forum if you're new to S/C leagues. There is a lot of good advice here that you don't even need to ask for.
Just a guy who loves fantasy football - specifically defense.

I think the key question is, what's the penalty for dropping a player with a long contract? If there's no penalty for dropping (seems unlikely) and there's no cap on contract years, give every player the maximum length contract possible because you can get out of it.

So contracts are 1-4 years...If you dump a player you owe 40% of his salary for the length of the contract applied to each year the contract goes through...so if you signed someone through 2020, you would be penalized 40% in 17, 18, 19 and 20.
