Need someway to make players have realistic contracts. #2

All players end up with one-year contracts that mostly aren't negotiable to longer contracts. Most AI players leave after one or two years at the end of their contract. This possibly is making the free agent pool much larger than it should be. This may be great for the player, as you can sign some of the best players in the league in free agency, but it is not realistic.

Also, this prevents you from trading for players on other teams, as they are almost all on the last year of their contract.

The large free agency pool could also be because the AI doesn't re-sign them, as all of my players are green when I re-sign them to a contract.

This could be resolved by exporting a league with actual generated teams, but I would rather have the whole league start with the "terrible" players. Instead of waiting for the "real" players to resign.
