You might have something there, but I wonder if it's really that difficult. I mean, I'm thinking it's something like:

Code:
A = my star rating
B = my primary position
get list C of all vet players under a post-arb contract at pos. B with rating A
D = average salary of players in list C
my starting demand = D * random(between 1.1 and 1.4)
I mean, maybe not THAT simple, but isn't that roughly what a real-life agent is going to do?
