The league voted in favor of compensation if a team does not match the salary on one of their RFA's. Below is a proposal for that compensation which coincides with the bidding regulations for RFAs. Please vote yes or no on adopting this system.
OWNER COMPENSATION FOR RESTRICTED FREE AGENT SIGNING
If an owner's RFA is signed by another team, he will receive a compensatory minors draft pick in the following season's minor league draft.
AAS = 18.01M+, then MINIMUM 5 yr deal – owner gets an additional first round pick at end of First Round.
AAS = $14.01M to $18M, then MINIMUM 4 yr deal – owner gets an additional second round pick at end of Second Round.
AAS = $10.01M to $14M, then MINIMUM 3 yr deal – owner gets an additional third round pick at end of Third Round.
AAS = $6.01M to $10M, then MINIMUM 2, MAXIMUM 4 yr deal – owner gets an additional fourth round pick at end of Fourth Round.
AAS = up to $6M, then MINIMUM 1, MAXIMUM 3 yr deal – owner gets an additional fifth round pick at end of Fifth Round.
