Rookie Contracts

Is MFN designed to mirror the rookie contract guidelines in place in the NFL? If so, it currently does not. By quite a margin. Mid-round picks especially cost considerably more than their NFL counterparts. For most teams in MFN, you can at best expect a career back-up from the late 3rd round on, and paying them multi-million-a-year contracts is a tad rich, in my opinion. So anyhow, I just wanted to inquire as to whether the inflated contracts of draft picks was by design or oversight. Thanks!

Another thing to consider is those mid round picks make quite a bit more than they would if you were redoing their contract.

You can void the contract, then sign them to a much cheaper deal. You take the risk that another team could sign them, but usually those mid round picks aren't very sought after, so you'd be safe. At least that's been my experience.
