IMO there seems to be 2 schools of thought regarding the teams at or near the cap now:
1. Sign a high rated fighter and then clear out a couple of mid-range guys to make up the cap space - welcoming a couple of 1 or 2 rated TC's onto your team ...
or
2. Make a modest improvement by dumping an underperforming 7,8,9 fighter and replacing him w/ a slightly better one. Counterbalance the cap by looking for value in the lower 4,5,6 range and hope that you don't lose to much with the lower rated guy.
I seem to prefer to have some sort of balance among the weight classes and hope to get at least 1 guy per weight class into the EOY tournaments. (Obviously, my team is not steamrolling towards the end of the season - 0-2 the last two rounds, so what the hell do I know)

I'm going with the first approach as I plan to abandon the MW division and fill in a couple of others. MW is just to tough and it's getting tougher and Pender isn't worth the cap hit to me right now. Plus, he doesn't fit the style of team I want. So I'll throw this out anyone who wants a almost prime Middleweight hit me up and we can get a trade done, I'm looking to move up in the draft to make sure I land one of my targets so we can swap picks.
