While I am sure there is a percentage you could find that re-sign v leave for free agency its hardly that simple in real life. There are too many factors such as the players family (are they happy there? is the player?), the player's agent (determined to get the biggest deal v hometown discount?), ownership's commitment to winning and commitment to keeing the player, etc. Those are just a few factors. OOTP does have similarities. There are players that contact you via message to let you know they want to stay. There are some who will go to free agency regardless, just like real life.
