Small market free agency

(11-06-2019, 12:29 PM)Catmandude123 Wrote: The NFL is unfair to small market teams. Big market teams get FAs easier and cheaper than small market teams because they know they have a better chance of winning a championship. I believe that the NFL needs to move the free agent signing period until after the draft. This way the weaker teams could see after the draft what exactly their needs were . This would keep the teams who know how to manipulate the salary cap from taking advantage of those who don't. Being able to pay players when they no longer on the team defeats the whole point of the salary cap.

Huh?? The NFL is as fair as it gets to all 32 teams, small market included, with salary cap and revenue sharing. If a team doesn't know how to manipulate the salary cap to their advantage then that's on their front office, not the NFL.

There are plenty of examples of smaller market teams that compete for championships year in and year out. Green Bay and New Orleans are two of the smallest markets in the NFL. Pittsburgh, Kansas City, Indy, Baltimore, Nashville, Jacksonville all in similar markets as the Bengals. Some are slightly bigger, some slightly less.

The NFL is as competitively balanced as it gets.
