Each year, $5m will be added to any unused $. Unused $ = any unsuccessful bid so if you lose a player, the $ comes back to you. Max = $40m; Min = $0m. Bonus Signing Money can be traded.
Important:
1) Signing Bonus Money can be used for Mid-Year Free Agents only.
2) All teams may submit a bid on any player.
3) Teams may not bid more than their Signing Bonus Cap allows. Ex- if a team has $10m, they may only bid a maximum of $10m total on all bids.
4) Teams may bid on as many free agents as they wish. Just can't bid more Signing Bonus Money than they possess.
5) A winning bid does NOT sign the player to a contract. CEOs may choose the contract of their choice based on eligibility (rookie tags, rookie contracts or PC contracts would all be possible). CEOs may choose to not sign the player as well resulting in the player becoming a free agent after that current season.
6) To decide which team wins if a tie bid (in order):
a) team's wins/loss record (worse winning percentage).
b) team's worst run differential.
c) team's greater game back of 1st place in division.
d) team who submits earliest/first.
