Gang,
Here is an update on re-rates.
Tonight I purchased our re-rate package for next season. This is bought from a 3rd party who takes a statistical approach to ratings highly based on last year performance.
I will load the ratings into the sim, hopefully tonight, and then share with my fellow commissioners for a sense check.
As long as things look generally good, we will not be making any adjustments, so the same approach as the last of years.
By strictly using a third party package, we eliminate any subjectivity, which is why we don't make any adjustments.
But since I now have access to the ratings, and soon the other commissioners will, the commish team is now under a trade freeze until the ratings are released to the entire league, which I hope will be within the next 24-48 hours.
Initially we will release the ratings, and then step 2 will be to set the wavier ratings threshold and contract RFA and UFA amounts. But I know folks are anxious to get the ratings so we will aim to get them out as quickly as possible.
Any questions?
