There are very few "big" trades that feels like it's shaking the league, regardless of teams. This means the ability to snag up a few players to compete for the season is near impossible. The big just keep being big and successful. And with the cap restrictions, the "meta" gets even staler since all teams look sort of similar. The main difference is how GM's and Coaches run the respective team, and how much they/scripts run sims.

I'm not even sure I'm going to recreate, even though I was sort of looking forward to it. The long-term implications of the decisions taken by HO and Management recently just looks awful and not a good time.

You're seeing the big teams having to field low tpe players this season. From a GM perspective the cap is absolutely working.

They have been for quite a while, it doesn't really matter except for player retention, to be honest. People going undrafted because teams just don't want to spend cap on a maybe prospect anymore.
All the top teams are pretty much fielding minimum contract teams with specific players staying under thresholds to not fuck up the team cap each season.

I think it was better when a team could become a contender with a couple of trades and FA moves over a couple of seasons (like NEW early FHM) instead of this "every team is strapped for cap space" so it's pretty much up to whoever sims the most or has the best script to simulate for them.
