I could pay a $15k insurance a week for selected star player in case I don't have to pay his salary after injury. Insurance options could be 1-4 weeks ($15k-$60k) every Sunday and if the player gets longer injury you selected, you can not renew insurance during that period (and you pay his full salary after insured week is over)
Replacement player doesn't sound realistic at all.

Not every week of course but I could pay it for players 100k+ some weeks before league playoffs, important cup games and BBB playoffs. I won't save him getting injured but I could buy another player for replacement without get rid of him because paying double salaries. I'm not playing in BBB, but I see insurance could be an option.

There we go: 3 week injury to a trainee with a level 3 doctor. He's also the third highest paid player on my roster. I'll get him back at the ASG if I'm lucky

Sounds exciting. You can still train stamina of FT.

I value people training FT on young trainees even below those training GS.

In any case, the fact doctors are completely bollocks (the guy is going to miss 3 or 4 weeks of training and come back with inept or awful GS) makes this insurance proposal very worthwhile. Each of my trainees is worth more than 3.5 millions, there are only 4 players currently on the market with the same number of skills or more and the last time I listed one of them at 2 million was going to actually sell for 5.6m.

I'd take the basic doctor and pay for the insurances.

Option 1: Instead of insurance, how about deducting the average salary of injured players for each team?

Let's set the injury time as of when the time is economy update. If the total salary of injured player(s) is $160,000 at that moment, each league consists of 16 teams, then there will be a reduction of salary each team by $10,000.

How does it sound like? Good or bad?

-----------------------------------

Option 2: Pay the salary even if that player is injured. However, after the end of season, if that player is still with your team, then the salary paid during the injury time will be paid back at end of the season.

Would it be better or not?

Insurance won't prevent injuries destroying training schedules for youngsters (that's such an entertaining aspect of Buzzerbeater ha ha) but at least you would have some compensation for the disgust.

Still third highest paid player and second best on my team, so...in my league there is a team that had about 25%-30% of his payroll injured (that was 3 or 4 players at the same time)

How would 200k help you in this situation? I assume any insurance would only cover the salary of the player, in your case 200k at best, or what are you thinking of?

I think your bench depth is your injury insurance. Pick up a trainee and train him for 4-5 weeks.
