My suggestion of the changes.

1. Team can buy out the contract BEFORE the season at 50% of it's value.
2. No more restrict FA. The team already have the advantage to extend the contract with player exclusively one year earlier.
3. Player have ETO after THREE years of contracts, no matter how long the contract is.

minor change.
1. No more 10% or 15% rise of contract. The rise or fall of the contract will be consistent to the CAP change rate.

My one quetion in your proposal. So if the 10 or 15% raise in contract is dependent on the cap, do you sign a player to a percentage of the cap? Or a fixed amount?

Yes, you can think it's a "percentage of the cap". So some team will have totally 80% salary of CAP. Some team may go to 125% of cap.

Everything else is the same, like MLE, Bird right, etc. In trade, you need to match the "percentage of CAP received"

Of course, like the last time, the old player still apply the old rule. They got paid the fixed contract.
