Basically the game seems to be coded into telling teams “here’s $5m to throw at the best prospect” instead of them spreading it out.
Also one mechanic that I may think is a bug, is that you can never convince a prospect to take your $5m offer if you offer second. I think I’m reality a prospect would weigh his options and choose a club that fits him best, as opposed to taking the first max offer.

Yeah, this is exactly what I meant. And removing the cap creates bidding wars over guys so that it doesn't just become "human player buys the best prospect". A guy signed with the yankees for $22 million in my first season doing this!
