Its sort of a double edged sword. Teams are finally starting to realize that paying players for what they done in the past is a terrible idea and they are getting handcuffed by bad contracts for old players - so they are signing less and less of them.
Players are realizing this and now they need to be paid during their prime because they aren't going to get it later.
In my mind this is how it should be. Pay guys for how they are going to play for you not how they used to play for you. This is happening in some of the other major sports too.
