A RFA is a player who has played 7 years pro or is age 27. (at 7 years pro, this means that potentially he can become an UFA at 26 but this is rare)

I believe there is a email notification if a team has offered one of your players a contract and you then have the choice to match it or let him go to that team. Depending on the amount of money that team will pay him, you might get compensation (draft picks). Same goes when you offer a RFA a contract, it will tell you if he accepts what draft picks you will give up. Star RFA players you try and snag away typically you give up about 3 first round draft picks.

As you are starting out with the game, i suggest you go by the Game Rating (GR) and star ratings. As you continue to play you will become more aware of some of the major stats and how certain players will fit in your team.
Thanks! This helps a ton!
