Restricted Free Agency 

Post#1 » by Danimals » Fri Jan 27, 2012 6:12 am

I'm looking for help understanding restricted free agency:

What are the basic rules governing this under the new CBA?

What is the maximum contract a team can offer their own rfa (years and money)?

What is the maximum contract a team can offer another teams rfa(years and money)?

How many days does a team have to match an offer?

What other elements are involved?

I appreciate anyone's help.

Max that someone can offer their own free agent is 5 years, with 7.5% raises each year. I'm not sure of the exact figure.

A team can only offer 4 years and I belive 4.5% raises to another teams RFA.

I think 72hours is how long you have to decide on matching.
