Owner Goal Confusion: Get Rid Of A Bad Contract When I Am At The Salary Floor

Iceman90 · 11-09-2024, 01:30 PM

My team owner just gave me a goal to get rid of a bad contract. My team is in a rebuild, and I am barely over the salary floor. So if I dump one of these "bad contracts" that my owner wants me to, I'll have to trade for a contract just as bad (if not worse) to be able to ice a team - and that logic doesn't really make sense.

This owner goal makes sense for teams in a different scenario. How does the CPU decide what goal to give when? Is it random? Because I am confused how this makes sense.

How much over the floor are you? It's supposed to exclude that goal if you're not very close to the cap.

I was about $650k over the floor.

Way below the requirement for the goal, then, we'll check that out.
