Please vote on the cost to franchise a player for this year.
I am proposing $500 for top 12 at a position, $250 for 13-24, and $100 for 25+ and the player must be dropped or traded after the season.
But do you want the loss of a rookie pick as well? A round one pick for a top 12 player, a round two pick for 13-24, and a round three pick for 25+
Let's keep it simple and restrict it to those two options. We can decide whether to do something about RFAs over the next three months, and plan to add them next year if the majority vote is in favor.

I voted.I think that the bucks choice is best because it will be the same for everyone and wont hinge on where you sit in the upcoming draft.

Yeah, but coaches that won a lot of games and got a low draft pick will be handicapped by the fact that they didn't earn a lot of bucks.
It works both ways.

i don't like the losing of a rookie pick. i think rookies aregonna hopefully makeup our squads one day and i think some people who keep franchsing wil never have a shot at top rooks. so imo BBucks i think this year and on will be important we are gonna start having really good players this year and the next 2-4 really go into free agency someone with the cao roomandd money could really do some damage this is how i plan on winning bid. i want to win now and think my team can but in 2 years i think i cna turn this into a powerhouse and im doing the same thing in another league.

I think everyone knows my opinion on this since I'm the one who suggested we change the way franchising works, but I'll give my opinion once again. I just don't see how giving up a rookie pick is good for the league when the best teams are going to only have to give up the chance to draft maybe's while the worst teams will have to give up the chance to draft franchise players. Let's take this year for example. If the worst team had a francihse calibur player who he wanted to keep, he would have to give up the chance to draft Reggie Bush. If the best team had a franchise player, he would only have to give up the chance to draft someone like Chad Jackson. Now I agree with Muses about the worst teams getting more breakneck bucks, but let's be honest here. A few hundred breakneck bucks will never compare to the difference between Reggie Bush and Chad Jackson, especially when we consider most good FA's will be traded away and NEVER EVEN MAKE IT TO THE FA BIDDING.
My suggestion would be to even up the breakneck buck between good and bad teams. Just like the NFL today, the best teams have the same amount of money to spend on the worst teams. The only difference is the bad teams get higher draft picks to try and improve.
If we let the best teams only have to give up Chad Jackson in order to keep LT, and the worst team has to give up Reggie Bush in order to keep Larry Johnson, then this league will have the same teams winning every year. But again that is just my opinion.

I voted bucks only.
I doubt I would ever franchise a player for either of these suggested options. Trading gives much better value in my opinion.
I can see Brian's point. Weak teams have to give up a lot under the current system. Not only that, but the lost pick means that better players filter down to the stronger teams.
Franchising should be an absolute last resort. Good players or potentially good players should be given long contracts, just in case. There is no penalty if they are traded or released in terms of cap hit.

I would say that this stays the way it was before due to not having a majority....I also move that we discuss the RFA matter and make a change on it NEXT season after we have all put our two cents worth in....That way we can do what we need to make it work to everyones satisfaction.
