Well everyone costs less than a DSFL player pretty much. But that's besides the point.
The way I see it, a top earner will extend on those benchmarks. So a top earner is actually "worth" what majesiu and I are getting paid. Later on, we'll have to take more money because we have higher tpe. If the league wants to come down on it, they should limit the contract lengths. Not create more tiers or raise salary minimums. But both would create more of a headache for GMs that already seem to have a hard enough time keeping a budget straight.
