But what's going to happen to the RFA's and UFA's is, a lot of them are going to get low-ball offers and the owners are going to wait it out until the player craters. Some will get big money, but a lot will get low-balled and be forced to re-sign with their former team, which will likely be late into camp/preseason.

One of the sticks in that wheel is the proposed 90% of the cap must be spent every year. Teams like Tampa Bay are no where near that floor amount and will have to spend gaudy numbers to hit that marks. It will put them in play for 2 or more of the top blue chip guys, and they will have to succeed at spending that money.

With teams having to be above a certain dollar amount, there will be overspending on marginal talents when the top guys have signed.
