*How Players are Paid

[Ephenssta]

Just as a note, Baltimore's overpayed rookies were a result from players leaving in FA the season prior to the rookies being called up where the new sim required more in some spaces than the old sim. Not trying to excuse my mismanagement, but that we weren't outright trying to overpay rookies at all which seems to be the rumor based on how it's explained here.

I'm not sure I totally understand what you mean here. I'm really not sure how players leaving in FA the season prior forced you to sign all your rookies to $4m contracts? As far as I'm aware that's simply not a thing but I could be wrong.
