I start to get leery about long contracts after 32. Unfortunately, I've missed out on some very productive years for some vets I didn't resign because at 32 they want 7 years $29 mil per year. I can think of only 4 players that would have been worth signing them to that contract in my current franchise, but many more that I thankfully passed on.

I usually trade overpaid guys for a bag of balls. I've forced the retirement of two guys...one was a 25yo that had 2 5 war years in a row and then got concussions the next two seasons. By the next season, he wasn't even 1/3 of the player he was, but I had already signed him to a big deal after his 2 good seasons.
