And watch the computer sign that guy to a mere fraction of what he was asking from your team ... probably like $2 million per year or something like that.

I can't believe this has not been brought up before. I can understand the challenge and what not but this is just outrageously unrealistic. I understand that rookies ask for higher contracts each year and that the contracts go higher and higher as they go, but when the CPU can sign free agents to cheaper contracts yet you can't even offer the minimum contract to a player rated below 50 ... that's just wrong!
