I tend to agree with this notion of thinking ok . But at the end of the day the Gm has the final say.
There might be 19 hof on the market and a bid war occur for him. It is closely watched if. He goes for 3 million final bid.* This just an example* . the Gm will see that as a red flag. The thing is that player just might be worth 3 mill but if Gm say its a no go. We can not argue that. All we can do is bid at last minutes in a fair way. Going from 275k to 1.3 million is going to attract attention even if the player is worth the honest bid price in 5 season timen
As rude as it sounds which is not my intentions You have to not get involved in getting the Gm into the matter in opinion . Because he is not going see our. Emotional intentions as a manager only the rules.
Of course auto bid and buy now would help matters. I'm not disputing that at all. My point. Be safe and. Aware. This is a competitive game and you never know how some else feels about going from 225k to 1.7 million in bid. That a fine/penalty from the Gm every time. How do you explain putting up over a mill in bid ? What do you think is the right thing to do ? To me bid at last minute, I'm not saying crazy amounts but 5-15k more. Which is fair.
That's all.
