New Re-Sign Rule
So essentially we have NO NTC on the books so any current NTC is voided until this year when 2013 re-signs occur and they get a 1-yr NTC (2014 NTC).
As your players' contracts expire, you will have a chance to re-sign them. Every off-season, you can re-sign your expiring contracts. There are limitations: You may only have 4 resigned players on your roster at any given time, and these players are not tradeable for 1-Year (NTC) after being re-signed. All Re-Signs must be for at least 3 years (but not greater than 4-yr or 5-yrs). To resign a player, you must make the player an offer in the player resigns forum.
You may offer the player what you want, but there is one thing to remember: Pay cuts ARE allowed. For anybody over the age of 35, a pay raise would require good reason, as would a pay raise for somebody who struggled the previous year.
Players must be FA's, if they have an option year and you decline the option they are not eligible to be re-signed, they go into the FA pool and are free to be bid on.
Only players who have completed their contract can be re-signed. You can not restructure someone’s deal and call it re-signing.
Process
You will submit a contract much like you do trades, you will post the players current salary then the contract you’re offering him.
You get 3 chances to re-sign a guy, after that, he goes into Free Agency.

This rule makes a lot of sense, approximates reality nicely, and is a smart compromise all around. The 4 per team limit ensures no abuse. Thx

Thx Much like the foreign rule we had a few ideas we discussed and narrowed it down with a vote and this was what won out. Hopefully it works out. I think it has the potential to be better than the prev rule.

Going to be adding this to rules and re-doing the re-sign players list seems like there are no objections to this change.
