It is a one to one elimination. Since we got two high end guys in Dayo and Dalman, our highest values will be cancelled. I’d guess Tev and Keenan would be the guys cancelled out, but I guess we’ll see where the contracts fall. Depending on how many guys are signed overall, Taylor could miss the 32 pick cutoff too. But, there’s no need to add multiple CFAs lost to offset one gained even if there’s a big cost difference.
Once each team’s list of CFAs lost and gained are determined and valued, one-to-one cancellations are applied. Cancellations work as follows, as stated in App. V, §3(a):
- A CFA gained by a team cancels out the highest-valued available CFA lost that has the same round valuation of the CFA gained.
- If there is no available CFA lost in the same round as the CFA gained, the CFA gained will instead cancel out the highest-available CFA lost with a lower round value.
- A CFA gained will only cancel out a CFA lost with a higher draft order if there are no other CFAs lost available to cancel out.
Any team that has more CFAs lost than CFAs gained will then be eligible for compensatory picks for the CFAs lost that were not cancelled out by CFAs gained.
