Re: Salary cap problems in year 4
if there is no guaranteed money on the contract (ie bonus) trade the player if you get a nibble, or release. either way there would be no cap penalty.
easiest is to try trade for a pick and a fb or te that is 35 ovr. that way it covers a team that has a full roster and fbs/tes are deemed the most useless according to cpu gms.
it does annoy me that future years penalties are not visible prior to the year
if you have someone with 2-3 years left, when you resign to 1-2 the total bonus is still used (you can do the new deal with 0 bonus) and the total of the 2-3 is spread over 1-2. ie i pay more now and theres no year 3. when you are dealing with 28 year olds and you resign towards end of season, that current season is one of the new contract and therefore in real terms the player gets a new salary for that year, therefore you get back pay ie a new non bonus bonus. restructured deals are a fact of life, manning was dumped before a 28m roster bonus. the salary cap in madden is wrong, i cant attach performance bonuses etc.
the remaining bonus is still recognised in year 2 as a penalty so there would be a cap penalty if your released or traded. 20M over 2 years or 20M over 3? take the first and get a simple 2m+ deal from someone else for year 3 if you are traded/released.
