I had a few questions regarding Free Agent signings and MLE questions:
1) Is there any maximum percentage/amount you can allot for an ascending salary contract? For example could you sign a player for a 2 year contract, which pays him 2M the first year and 5M the second?
2) For the MLE, does the MLE only apply towards the first year of a contract or the overall average value over the lifespan of the contract? For example if we have 3M for a MLE, can you sign a player to a 2-year 8M contract that pays him 3M the first year and 5M the second year? Or can you only sign the player to a 2-year 6M contract that pays him 3M annually?
I'm just wondering how the MLE works and if there are any loopholes to sign players to more lucrative deals like the examples above? Any insight would be awesome.
