Ian Noble You can always replace me if you want. My philosophy in making PA decisions seems to be so wrong for the long-time PAs out there. (I am not implying that I want to be replace, because I think my philosophy is better. But I do not want to give you any hard time about this Ian.)

The kid is on the upswing, why would he want to sign a 3 year deal for basically minimum when people this offseason would bid on him? That's the critique.

This is why the rule against 2+ year contracts for the minimum is pointless for protecting the player, because contracts like this are legal.
What’s the difference between this and a min contract - and where are PAs supposed to draw the line?

But speaking more generally, the reason these contract are allowed and minimums aren't is to handicap team over the cap (which are often the best teams). It gives rebuilding teams, which are often under the cap, a small advantage over the better teams. Which is healthy for the league at large imo |

Teams over the cap have always been able to sign players lol |

OK but you can fit like 5 of these deals into the MLE so it’s not very effective at that either. In all honesty the rule should be something like, contracts longer than 3 years must be x% of the salary cap. |

Player agents should know that 99% of players, especially younger guys would never take a 1 mil*3 deal. There’s times where a player in there 30s takes a deal sorta like that but even that is unlikely. I do think PAs have been pretty good with stuff like this though so I don’t see a huge issue |
