Allocation draft contracts

There needs to be more variation in contract length for allocation draftees. In Cust 28 it looks like teams only have 3 draftees with 3 year contracts so that will leave 43 on 2 year contracts.

As we can't renew in the first season that means we will all have to renew 43 contracts next year if we want to keep them all. Even if teams only keep half that is still over 20. That is far too many.

+1 Maybe 4 years for first 5 rounds, 3 years for 5-20, 2 years for the rest. Really, you shouldn't re-sign 10-15 of those players you got. They're **** and won't even develop either. :) Easier to re-sign the 10-20 players you'll actually keep out of all of the 2-year deals.

You can also slowly work on your contracts over the course of the season rather than just do them all at one time, and vary their length of contracts then based on their age. You really won't/shouldn't keep a lot of your allocation players beyond year 2 or 3.
