Its looking like the 20-21 offseason might be a bit of a problem.
On average about 25% of players should become free agents each year, that’s works out at about 50 players in total. However due to the fact that after the initial draft most players were signed up for 4 years, as it stands there is about 90 players are set to become FA in 20/21. Once you add new rookies and players signed to shorter contracts in the next couple of offseason there is likely to be well over 100 free agents in 20-21 offseason.
To alleviate this, during the 19/20 season we can allow teams to sign up to 3 or 4 players, who are set to become free agents to contract extensions.
Can make the deadline for signing extensions sometime around the all-star break or trade deadline.
Contract extensions can be set a something like 1.25 X players current salary with yearly increases of 1.25 X.
Each team would be able to sign 1 x 1-year extension, 1 x 2-year extension, 1 x 3-year extension, and maybe 1 x 4-year extension. Doing this should spread out the available FA fairly evenly over the next 3 to 4 offseason.
