I'll check out your patreon as well, appreciate the work you do.



I also reuploaded the DB_Templates and increased the expected salary of players.


I replaced my DB_Templates with the file at the beginning of this post again, but I still see most top players asking for 4-8 million per year in free agency.

Did you create a new franchise when you replaced the DB_Templates? It wont work on existing franchises.

Yup just tried again- replaced DB Templates, used your V.4 new roster, tried a new franchise and calling the file something brand new. If I go to re-sign my own players at the beginning of the franchise they have the higher "modern" numbers, but the actual offseason free agency still has for example, 99 rated Nick Bosa asking for around 8-9 million per year all-in.

Sorry I don't mean to be a pain, just trying to get it working if I'm missing something

I got a different one when I tried to re-sign Bosa who is asking for 38.6 M on a 1 year contract. But the breakdown is incorrect at the bottom as shown below. I may need to tinker the SADP table again.

Hmm, so I'm doing something wrong then. I took the DB_Templates file that you posted at the beginning of this thread and replaced the original DB_Templates with this one, and then I loaded your 25-26 roster that I downloaded the other day, and started a new franchise with that roster. Anything that I missed? Thanks!

I believe I got it working. I haven't seen those beyond bloated breakdowns like you posted there with Bosa. In free agency in the offseason I see the top QB's like Josh Allen asking for around 20M per year (if you combine salary + bonus) so it's closer than the default numbers for sure.

Good to hear! I reinserted the SADP for the 1st season on the 2nd season that's why I got messed up figures. Still figuring out how it computes and assigns the SFAT value for each position group on the next season.

Ah makes sense. I wonder if it'd ever work if the free agency contracts matched real life, like the top QBs getting 50+ million but I would assume then you run the risk of teams being over the cap eventually and not being able to sign anyone due to AI logic.
