In the MP leagues I play in, among the bigger problems is that there's a pretty meaningful and continual drift of talent toward some of the better teams. I'd hate top think that every team that posts 12 wins or a title would now reap *extra* benefits in those leagues and start signing free agents more easily than the teams who really need the help.

Realism is not always the best way to go to make a game interesting and playable. It often is, but not always.

(And I tend to believe that the player overlooking the fat contract from a losing team is an overstated example, not really the case for all that many players in the NFL)
