Poll: Picking up players following the draft. Two options up for vote are:
A) If you pick up an undrafted free agent, you must sign him to full his contract. Any player cut from a roster post-draft, can be signed to a one-year deal for his 2012 salary as listed on the spreadsheet. That player will automatically become a free agent after the 2012 season.
For example, if Vernon Wells goes undrafted, you can pick him up at his full contract which runs through 2014. But if Vernon Wells is drafted and cut, you can pick him up at his spreadsheet salary $24M in 2012, but he will be a free agent after the season.
B) All players whether they are an undrafted free agent or cut from a roster must be paid their full contract as listed on the spreadsheet.
For example: For example, if Vernon Wells goes undrafted, you can pick him up at his full contract which runs through 2014. If he is drafted and then cut, you can pick him up, but you must sign him until his contract is up after the 2014 season.
