| Message | Purcell in for Cammilari For the record......I am fine with leaving the pool as is. Having said that some GM's have been at this many more years than me and i understand if they want changes. My one suggestion though would be to keep the prospect draft/farm team aspect of the pool as it is fun researching the new young guys coming up. |

| Message | i also like the idea of signing contracts before the season starts, not after. more risk involved, more mistakes, more interesting... |

| Message | From my perspective the most important aspect to any new changes would be setting the correct cap number. Just thinking out loud, but if say the number was 120 cap years, and I chose to spread my roster dominated with 3-5 year deals that would allow me to basically keep my entire roster for a 3-5 year window, possibly creating a dynasty in the case of Cam, or keep a team trapped in the bottom. I think the cap number should be relatively low, to force or encourage a significant amount of turnover each year, allowing weaker teams the opportunity to pick up 2-3 significant upgrades to improve there teams quickly. I dont have a problem with teams having a great core of contracts for 12-15 players with the rest being exposed in the redraft. |
