The prospecty-IFA system needs to be overhauled. Players demands scale solely based on what the cap is set at, without any consideration for team revenue or what other prospects might get. An IFA prospect can demand 2bil if the cap is set that high, but make him a "normal" free agent and his demand is suddenly a far more reasonable 11mil, despite the fact that he has more leverage negotiating as a true free agent, rather than through the IFA system (where caps and penalties limit a player's leverage).
