Yes that's what I was trying to say.

This.

Since players don’t demand more as time goes buy and inflation doesn’t exist in Madden, maybe they don’t have the cap rise past that year on purpose?

Might actually be a good thing.

But they don’t... if you sim ahead a decade the desired contracts generally are the same at various positions.

So if the cap didn’t stop rising it would equal essentially having no salary cap almost after a decade. That could be a reason why they intentionally stopped the cap from rising.

Just a thought.

The players don't ask for more, generally unless they are already getting more than that.

Proof: I just signed Ezekiel Elliott to a 5 year, $59 million contract. 11.8 per year if broken down evenly. I actually offered MORE than the game considered fair, but only by 1 million or so.

One of the best in the NFL took a contract that is less than Bell's franchise tag, and only roughly 1m more than Jerick McKinnon got. So 1.5m more than a guy who has never been a 1000 yard rusher, never a true #1. So in the game, players do not demand to be highest paid or keep pushing the envelope.
