I think the game is just scaling contracts with the increasing cap and now we are a few years behind the increasing cap, we are seriously feeling the crunch. What was the cap last season for AI? For some reason I had it in my head that it was ~170m but it can't have been if the cap is now 204m

And I echo Emerald's statement. My largest concern is the gap between the users and the AI. We will have to make tough decisions whereas the AI is never going to have to let their best players go due to cap reasons.

It's kind of double edged. It does force the better user controlled teams to share the wealth but there is now a larger advantage to developing players and having them under cheaper contracts than their OVR is typically paid. And the lesser teams struggle to develop players leaving them struggling against the cap.

It's a tricky one. Like I don't feel like I've been horrible with my contracts in recent years (Turner being the outlier but I shouldn't feel the effects of that yet) but I feel like I'm about 10-13m short of where I need to be (So realistically maybe we are 5-6m light?). I even made the conscious effort to trade for players with desirable contracts last season to try help out the cap situation. I can cut players and sign some garbage to fill holes but it feels like that shouldn't be the solution every year.
