And I honestly have no issue with the player not signing a longer term deal. I really honestly don't. As I've said a few times:
a) When a player declines a multi-year, their single-year ask shouldn't escalate (unless you've nagged them to death)
b) Just give some indication on the type of contract that the player will sign. As a GM, I'm talking to the players agent - and an agent would be VERY happy to tell me what the player will sign for.
That's it, just those two things - then all's good. So in evaluating JUST those two topics, is my suggestion unreasonable, or breaking the game in some way?

Missed the point. He wanted 1.87 on a 1Y. I offered longer-term, he said no, and asked for 3+ on a 1Y. I said no and offered 1.87 1Y. He took it.
What's the point in even coming back with a counter (escalated or otherwise) if the player is just going to take what they originally offered? It's an absurd scenario that ultimately shows nothing more than poor programming.
