Deferred contracts need to be hit with a tax escalator of 1000 percent of AAV so teams can't just invest the savings of the actual outlay. Institute a hard cap and floor of a total percentage of revenue in exchange for trimming two years off of service requirements for FA. That would stop this shit really quickly.
