I keep seeing that in my 7-league indy setup...the lesser 6 leagues all finish around the first week of September, while the Atlantic League runs to the end of the month. FA players from the first 6 leagues frequently sign on with Atlantic League teams only to become FAs again a few weeks later.

I'm honestly not sure what to do about it...it could be rationalized that those teams are just stocking up on available talent for the home stretch and really don't want them around beyond that one month, but it's a little too prevalent for that. Basically, the problem seems to be that the period of time when AI teams will offer extensions has already passed, so these late-added players never get an additional contract offer even if they're useful to their new team.
