Re: Build a Franchise (Season 8) Discussion Thread- Announcement on page 49
I think, like others have said, rule #1 would be improved by adding some limits. Either a hard amount of years they're allowed to be "stashed" or like if the player plays X amount of IRL NBA minutes he can't be stashed the following year.
That being said, I'll vote YES on Rule 1 and if it seems too easy to take advantage of, we can amend it.
Ill vote NO on Rule 2.

Re: Build a Franchise (Season 8) Discussion Thread- Announcement on page 56
#1- Yes, because I believe it will add more value to 2nd round picks.
#2- No. While having the increase would be nice which initially made me think yes, the argument about having more parity in the league is one that I have to agree with. This is why I try to stagger contracts be it through FA or trades. Just so I'm not stuck trying to potentially re-sign multiple highly-effective bird-right players in one summer.

I’m still shocked he fell so far in the draft irl. Dude is too talented to drop that low
