In the real life MLE max contract length is 3 years. I think we should mirror this in real life. Still lets an over cap team get bird rights if they want, but gives a non-cap team the advantage of being able to sign a FA for 4 years.

Non-Taxpayer Mid-Level Salary Exception
(a) Subject to the restrictions on the use of the Non-Taxpayer Mid-Level Salary Exception set
forth in Section I.F.3. below, a team may use the Non-Taxpayer Mid-Level Salary Exception
to sign one or more players to contracts with first-year salaries that, in the aggregate, provide
for a total up to $5.305 million in 2014-15 (the Exception amount grows annually by 3%
during the term of the CBA).
(b) Contracts signed under the Non-Taxpayer Mid-Level Salary Exception can cover up to four
seasons.
(c) A team can use the Non-Taxpayer Mid-Level Salary Exception to re-sign its own free agent
(as well as to sign another team’s free agent), but cannot use this Exception to acquire a player
by assignment.
(6) Taxpayer Mid-Level Salary Exception
(a) Subject to the restrictions on the use of the Taxpayer Mid-Level Salary Exception set forth in
Section I.F.3. below, a team may use the Taxpayer Mid-Level Salary Exception to sign one or
more players to contracts with first-year salaries that, in the aggregate, provide for a total up to
$3.278 million in 2014-15 (the Exception amount grows annually by 3% during the term of
the CBA).
(b) Contracts signed under the Taxpayer Mid-Level Salary Exception can cover up to three
seasons.
(c) A team can use the Taxpayer Mid-Level Salary Exception to re-sign its own free agent (as
well as to sign another team’s free agent), but cannot use this Exception to acquire a player by
assignment.
So if someone payed the luxury tax they have 3 years, if they didn't pay the tax then the limit is 4.
So Houston didn't pay the luxury tax because last season they were only like 6 million over the cap. We can set a tax number and make that a penalty for being so far over.

Yeah, my next post corrects that. My bad. They just weren't tax paying because they weren't far over the cap.
