After reviewing all the comments as of 11:14 am central time on Friday 2/7/20 I propose the following package:

1. Lottery Playoff for 12 non playoff teams will follow similar process as Regular Playoff:

- Round 1: 4 teams with best records get first round byes. Remaining 8 teams are seeded 1-8 based on winning percentage and play first round games.. ( 1-8, 2-7,3-6, 4-5)
-Round 2: 8 remaining teams seeded 1-8 based on winning percentages and play
-Round 3: 4 remaining teams seeded 1-4 based on winning percentages and play
-Round 4: 2 remaining teams play each other

Draft Order for First 12 positions:

1. Lottery Playoff Champ
2. Round 4 Loser
3-4: Round 3 Losers
5-8: Round 2 Losers
9-12:Round 1 Losers

Use existing tie breaker rules, except teams with better winning percentages gets higher picks.


2. Trade Changes:

- trading allowed from week 1 through week 8
- in season trading has salary cap of 93M and salary floor of 73M


3. Team Rescue Plan

-any team which finishes in the bottom 4 of the league ( based on winning percentage ) for 2 consecutive seasons may eliminate any two veteran contacts without penalty and get a supplemental first round draft pick ( pick 25 ) in year 3. A team may not use the same season to count for more than one rescue plan. i.e... if you use seasons 2020 and 2021 to qualify, then you can not use 2021 and 2022 to qualify.


Reasoning:

1. The package creates incentives to win.
2. The package allows increased trading which allows teams to rebuild.
3. The package includes a safety net which allows teams who fall on hard times to get back on their feet.
4. The package is balanced and the various elements counter balance each other.

Also, do not forget this proposal also has elements which could be viewed as anti-monopolistic so even if someone thinks there is no tanking issue, they could vote for the package because it has those type of provisions

I would tweak the playoff system a bit before I could support it; I don't like the idea of 12 teams competing for #1.... maybe

-bottom 4 teams compete for #1
-other non-playoff(13-20) compete for #5
-12 playoff teams seeded as per current rules

or

-bottom 8 teams compete for #1
-other 4 non-playoff(13-16) plus four wild card round losers compete for #9.... would give teams incentive to make playoffs; but still offer a fallback if eliminated early....
-final 8 playoff teams seeded as per current rules

And I will also point out unless there is virtually no support for a proposed rule change, it WILL get a vote.

Because there are many ideas/proposals regarding this topic, I would hope a consensus emerges so that we are not voting on potentially conflicting proposals.

That is good news...

Respectfully, the poll is misguided given it does not address the fact the proposal includes proposals which are designed to deal with more issues than tanking.

----------------------------------

The poll has been deleted and the previous messages regarding it were deleted. Carry on.

I agree Jerry from Bay City's following proposed tweak improves the proposal:

-bottom 8 teams compete for #1
-other 4 non-playoff(13-16) plus four wild card round losers compete for #9.... would give teams incentive to make playoffs; but still offer a fallback if eliminated early....
-final 8 playoff teams seeded as per current rules

-----------------------------

So if the bottom 8 teams play a "tournament" to determine the #1 pick, I assume the loser of the "championship" game gets the #2 pick". Please confirm.
And if the two "semi-final" game losers gets picks #3 and #4, how is it determined which team gets which pick?
And if the four "quarter-final" game losers gets picks #5-#8, how is it determined which team gets which pick?

How is it determined which teams of the "other 4 non-playoff(13-16) plus four wild card round losers compete for #9" get picks #9-#16, assuming you meant "9-16" and not "13-16"?
