Towards the lower spectrum on teams with young talent and more on teams that hit an age wall and have had fire sales for draft picks or such.

With this approach, FA will be non-existent... there will be no value in Free Agency. You want to have some sort of cap so that say you have 20 FA's... 5 of those are guys you're wanting to get out... 10 you resign... 5 you're gonna have to make a decision on...
I'm not saying those numbers are correct.. I'm just throwing them out there as an example. You want to have a little turnover to the teams of valuables so that the Free Agency period actually means something. It's more fun of a game when you have 10 guys you wanna keep, but can only re-sign 6 of them... it forces decisions, and again it gives the free agency pool meaning and excitement.
Just gotta find a balance.
