With a 24-hour window to increase bids for international free agents, once the bidding for a player gets past certain thresholds, minimum raises of $.05 allows owners to "nickel and dime" the auction. Auctions for IFAs, while most of these players are years away, should still require a competitive bidding structure just like regular free agency (Section 4.1.D - Minimum salary is $.50 and all subsequent bids must increase by a minimum of 1 point
).
I would like to propose a rule change to increase the minimum bid increases for IFA auctions based on a sliding scale. The higher the auction price of an IFA increases, the minimum bid increase should increase as well.
I would propose that the minimum bid increase for IFA auctions be as follows:
For auctions at $.20 to $5.00, the minimum increase be $.10
For auctions from $5.01 to $10.00, the minimum bid increase be $.50
For auctions over $10.01, the minimum bid increase be $1.00
).
