To my understanding, once the injured player becomes healthy again, the replacement player is subjected to a waiver wire pick up without the 1.5M cap rule in effect. What im trying to implement is that for our rookies who are making 1.5M cap remain with their respective team. Do note, that once a player becomes injured and is placed in the IR list, the player does not count toward the roster. Meaning that that the injured player can be and must be replaced by an undrafted player off waivers or someone from your bench. It's important to understand that more than anything we only count the points that a player gives you once he is inserted into your roster. Once he is traded or benched, that player no longer contributes his points to your team. In return, we want to if anything award teams that go through injury rather than hinder their progress.
I like the 1.5 million cushion to protect the rookies from being claimed also. But if we replaced a injury with a free agent over 1.5 than we can lose him when our higher priced regular comes back,
