Post#1 » by babyjax13 » Fri Jan 28, 2011 5:39 am

I just have three quick suggestions for features and material I would like to see on this site.

1. On the roster pages for each team list their future picks (should be easy enough to do since that data is already on the site).

2. Player and team salaries would be great. I don't know how feasible this is, but other sites like shamsports.com, espn and hoopshype (terrible) have it; I don't see why RealGM wouldn't have something similar.

3. Trade checker on front page. Include player salaries on trade checker instead of % of team salary (because that tells nothing - especially with teams like the Kings). I think if you do this it could bump traffic a bit by pulling some users from the ESPN trade machine.

By the way, I love the new depth charts. :)

The issue with salary is that RealGm licenses it's more detailed software to the teams themselves. Those teams that pay them and provide them with accurate percentages do not like real dollars being bandied about. Other sites have dollars, but they are educated guesses.

i think the actual salary number is a good idea too. even if it is an educated guess. perhaps in parentheses after the *official* percentage.

I think Delaney was right when he was talking about RealGM's proprietary software that uses the alternative system. It's actually a much more accurate way to do things than salaries (hence RealGM making so much money off it).

Don't be so sure of that.
