Ok so with 150 being an average good year, included with a PT cap. I'm going to assume you mean a good SHL year, but the milestones and random TPE pay evenly to Jrs so I'll assume that the Milestone/Misc is a set number for practical purposes that is basically the sum of all non-expected TPE and wouldn't change because you happened to get rookie bonuses.

So, you could build a very very good player if you hit 150 every year.


But that would basically be your peak. Then you'd begin regression, and at 1528, regression will keep pace with any improvements.

Either way, the real question is, how good of a player are you comfortable with a player being able to become at what point?


This is a player who gets every single TPE starting his 5th pre-season training camp.

It just seems like a 'how good should even the most committed players be' scenario and work back from there. If players with 800 TPE going into season 5 seems right to you, then just make it easier on yourself by removing the caps and not offering more TPE than your budget can withstand. You know which ones won't change, Activity Checks and Max Workouts, and if people don't do them, that's on them, but assuming they do, you can decide what the max skill level of any aged player should reasonably be and work backwards from there. If it means reducing TPE in PTs, it's easier than tracking a cap, and it keeps the whole league in check.

Except the rookie cap, which makes sense.
