This concept can be applied to our league substituting cap points for real cap $$$. If a team owner does not want to clog up cap space w/ untested fighters still in Beginning or Pre-Prime stages of development - then just don't draft them.
Once a fighter moves into Post-Prime or End, it is clear that his best days are behind him and therefore not worth as much. A team is not spending valuable cap points on a fading fighter if his cap number decreases once entering Post-Prime or End.
Of course this evolution will not play a big part in league for several seasons. Keep in mind that in UTBA-I, fighters did not start moving to Post-Prime until into their 5th full season.

Very well said Dave. Couldn't agree more.
