What I can't figure out is what happens if I hold with my current offer. For the free agent, he mentioned another team offering more money for a shorter period, so I left my offer out there. For the extension, the player said he wants more money, but he didn't "reject" the offer.
If the offers are still outstanding and a player has said he's looking for more money or longer terms, do I just leave the offers outstanding and expect the players to get back in touch with me about ultimately accepting/rejecting the offer?

I'm no authority but in my years of playing I've never seen a player tell you that he has a bigger offer from somewhere else but then come back and take yours if you hold firm. I think any time you get a message and another team has made an offer, it's labeled as a BETTER offer, not just a "different" offer.
