General Info:
List of Free Agents: http://ssba.phillyarena.net/fa/fa-pos.htm

There are 5 days of free agency.  Not all free agents will immediately make their decision.  Some will take all 5 days.  If you don't PM me to change your offer, your offer stands from one day to the next.

I cannot do tiered offerings. Meaning I can't do something like "offer this guy x amount of dollars, and if he turns it down offer this guy the same thing". I offer all the contracts at once, you have to be prepared to accept the consequences if they accept. If you don't want a guy to accept until you know another guy has turned you down, wait and offer your second guy the contract after your first priority has signed somewhere.

Also, you can only have 15 players on a roster at any time. If you have 15, a player can't accept your free agent offer. If you have 14, and a free agent accepts your offer, then no other free agent can accept your offer. Make room on your roster accordingly.

Contract Terms

For Teams Over The Cap (or have less than 4.5 million in cap space):

If you are re-signing your own player (with 3+ bird years):
Max Length: 7 years
Max Raises: 12.5% of first years salary
Max Starting Salary: Check table below based on experience

If you are re-signing your own player (less than 3 bird years):
Max Length: 6 years
Max Raises: 10% of first years salary
Max Starting Salary: 120% of his previous years salary

If you are signing a new player:
MLE: 1 year contract @ 4.5 million
LLE: 1 year contract at 1.2 million
(each of these can be used once per season.  You can't offer them less than the exception, or a portion of the exceptions, just the full exceptions.  Players signed with the MLE or LLE can't be traded until their exception contract expires)
Minimum salary exception: Minimum Salary (based on experience, see table below) for 1 year.

For Teams Under The Cap (And have more than 4.5 million in cap space):

Re-signing your own free agents (3+ bird years):
Max Length: 7 years
Max Raises: 12.5% of first years salary
Max Starting Salary: Maximum allowed based on experience (check table below)

Re-signing your own free agents (less than 3 bird years):
Max Length: 6 years
Max Raises: 10% of first years salary
Max Starting Salary: 120% of previous years salary, or amount of cap space you have (not higher than the maximum allowed based on experience, as listed in table below), whichever’s higher.

Signing a new player:
Max Length: 6 years
Max Raises: 10% of first years salary
Max Starting Salary: Amount of cap space you have, up to the maximum allowed based on experience (see table below).

After day 5 of Free Agency
After the 5 days of free agency and training camp have been simmed, you can sign any player still available to a 1 year, minimum salary contract.  These are not biddings, the players automatically accept.  The signing of players at this point comes on a first come, first serve basis.  This is how you can fill out your remaining roster spots if players haven't accepted your offers in free agency.

Salary based on experience:
Exp Min Max
0 $332,817 $10,625,000
1 $465,850 $10,625,000
2 $540,850 $10,625,000
3 $565,850 $10,625,000
4 $590,850 $10,625,000
5 $653,350 $10,625,000
