It would be like the current 7/8 year model, but would further incentivize good young players to stick with their teams while lowering term limits in general. It would also increase the trade value of players on expiring deals if the acquiring teams gets the benefit of 2 additional years instead of just the 1. I don't know, maybe anyway.
You could also bring back team and/or player optional years.

Good luck in getting the large market teams to agree to that. The leagues strongest markets have little incentive in incentivizing good young players to stay with their small market teams.
What you are suggesting is fair and reasonable but it will never get passed.
