Suggestion

Cap what a player can ask for relative to the superstar player average in the game options.

Reason

In my historical leagues, too many 3/4 star players have had ridiculous high contracts because teams just kept bettering each other with contracts. If for instance, the avg superstar contract is $100,000, make the most a player can ever get $150,000. Otherwise teams will get loaded with excessive contracts. This will still mean you will have to manage your contracts and release expensive players to stay under budget. but it will make the game more accurate financial wise.(Rogers Hornsby once signed a $400,000 per year contact in 1942, when in real life, Ruth only ever got around 80/90k!

Priority

High for me, as it would make historical leagues that much more realistic.
