My team in custom 77 has a number of large contracts straight from the allocation draft that should not be there. For instance, my Rb is making 15 million total. I can't fix them myself cuz of the first year can't extend rule. Can someone pls help me fix this issue? Thanks

The salaries for the allocation draft are predetermined and equal among all teams. (Unlike the regular draft, where the salary is weighted based on where in the draft the selection occurs) The first rounds are much larger contracts than the later rounds; the RB was your first selection, so he has the biggest contract. You should have plenty of room to fill out your roster with low salary players, and generally that's sufficient because after the allocation draft there is not much free agent talent left.

Yes, but those numbers are off. I've drafted guys first over all in the allocation draft before and they shouldn't cost anymore than 10 mil per season.

Look at the transaction log for this player

https://cust77.myfootballnow.com/player/3003

97 mil over 4 seasons out of the allocation draft?

Also this team isn't even projected to have enough room to sign it's draft picks next season.

There was an issue with CUST77's draft where the initial contracts were incorrect. I was able to fix the actual contracts but not the entries in the transaction log. If you look at the actual contract, you'll see that it is nowhere near 97 million.

How is Houston in
MFN 81 https://mfn81.myfootballnow.com/team/view/15 30 mil under the cap

Yet

Los Angeles in
Cust77 https://cust77.myfootballnow.com/team/view/17 2.5 mil under the cap

My point is that something is still wrong with the salaries in 77.

Yes that is what is the most concerning part. I have to set aside money for the draft next season as well.

Actually the most concerning part would be re doing the contracts for all of your players next season before they hit the free agent market.

Yep. A fix would be greatly appreciated. It's not just my team as well I'm pretty sure other teams may have this issue but I need to verify that.
