Capped: The Rising Cost of Depth Players
Eric Daoust
2014-08-15
Looking at depth players that have signed unusually large contracts…
Building a successful team in a salary cap league usually involves a combination of highly-paid elite-level stars along with some cheap depth producers that make it possible to afford the elite while still offering a reasonable amount of production. The stars, while offering outstanding production, are also more likely to continue the trend in the coming years. On the other hand, the depth guys may one day get big raises of their own and in other cases their time eventually passes and the team can then find the next inexpensive solution.
