Re-Signing Rule (2014-2018)
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.
*When you trade a player, their tag transfers to the new team so that team must have an open re-sign spot.
*All Re-Signs must be for at least 3 years (but not greater than 4-yr or 5-yrs).
*You may buy-out a re-sign for 50% and re-sign tag remains.
*You may buy-out a re-signed player but you must pay him 50% of remaining contract per year remaining. You also must keep the re-sign tag. The benefit is you get some cap relief.
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.
Listed On Roster:
Player - Salary (NTC) (Rest Of Deal)
Ex:
Joe Blow - $5,000,000 (2014 NTC) (2018) (Re-Sign)
