I would definitely think this is gaming. If your contracts are not "guaranteed" but the OOTP engine believes they are when the player accepts, then I don't see how you can allow for escalating contracts without abuse. If a player is cut in year 4 of a 7 year deal, I would suggest the team should be hit with a penalty of the difference between dollars paid during years 1-3 and the average contract salary over 7 years.
