The current RFA Offer Sheet Compensation is pretty bad, the jumps are too big between 2, 1+3, 1+2+3, 1+1+2+3, and 4x 1 -picks. More levels with a smoother continuum would be better. Players would get what they deserve, rather than teams just thinking that they should offer the max you can offer without paying an extra 1st rounder.
So I made a smoother version with more continous compensation, no sudden jumps.
Based on the 81,5M$ salary cap we have now, the max salary is 20% = 16,3M$
There would be main levels with 1st rounders + smaller jumps with lesser picks in between:
6M$: 1st -rounder
9M$: 2x 1st
12M$: 3x 1st
15M$: 4x 1st
If you go over those levels:
-by 1M$: add 3rd rounder
-by 2M$: add 2nd+3rd
So, for example:
8M$: 1st + 2nd + 3rd
13M$: 3x 1st + 2nd
For salaries less than 6M$, the compensation would be:
1M$: 5th
2M$: 4th
3M$: 3rd
4M$: 2nd
5M$: 2nd + 3rd
As a picture it's easier to get, of course:
The 3 million dollars between 15M$ / 12M$ and 9M$ / 6M$ are equally valuable in a cap world, so the difference in compensation should be pretty much equal.
I do not think you should be getting a 1st rounder if the salary is less than 6M$ with the current cap. If you don't want to pay someone that much, the player is not that special. It would also be good to see some middle-level players moving around more in the league.
The current compensation is:
I think the current compensation is way too high, especially in the 1-5-million-range, and the jumps are just too large.
