Just finished reading this thread and personally I enjoy the UFA system the way it is. It is relatively simple (which I enjoy) and I like the potential for steals. Some UFAs in our system get overpaid big time and some of them get steals. With our UFA and RFA grid pricing the salaries are high enough, rookies on entry level deals are already worth a ton.
I don't see the need to prevent steals, if someone chooses to big 1 mill on 16 players and gets a few at a cheap price then good for them. They also risk striking out entirely and not adding any assets because they weren't willing to pay a decent salary. All part of the game.
