I agree the risk exists no matter what. But in October, you have a lot more retooling option - not offer arby, sign guys, not sign guys, etc... By February, your team should be pretty much set. If you get conversion changes, then you pretty much just lose a season because your finances are pretty locked in and your rosters choices are finite.

I guess my end all point is that if you change in preseason, I as a GM just made a bunch of decisions for the entire offseason based on information that might change. Just giving more of a end user perspective rather than a commish perspective. I certainly see where you guys are coming from though. I would want to limit problems too.
