I think what you are seeing is normal. FA rules back in the 70's and 80's were different than what we are used to in the current era.


Also, FHM's historical database only focuses on players that "made it". Players that were drafted but never got anywhere do not appear in the game, thus making the number of players less, meaning there will be less free agents overall.
