FA rules were different in the 90s. I also play historical in that time period, and find it to be fairly accurate. If you go look at the historical FAs signed in 95, it's a lot of lesser players or players approaching the end of their career. That is because teams kept players rights for a lot longer back then.
It should change to something we are more accustomed to within just a couple more years in your universe, as changes to Free Agency were made after the 1995 season IRL if I recall correctly. Then more changes were made following the 2005 lockout.
