Restricted Free Agents:
Restricted free agents (RFAs) are players who are 26 years of age or under and have expired contracts. These players are free to sign with any team, but the team of origin has the right to match the offer or take compensation. The compensation chart is as follows:
$150,000-$300,000= No Compensation
$300,001-$500,000= One 2nd round pick, $1million
$500,001-$1,000,000= One 2nd round pick, One 3rd round pick, $3million
$1,000,001-$2,000,000= Two 2nd round picks, Two 3rd round picks, $5million
$2,000,001-$3,000,000= One 1st round pick, Two 2nd round picks, Three 3rd round picks, $7million
$3,000,001-$5,000,000= Two 1st round picks, Three 2nd round picks, Five 3rd round picks, $10million
$5,000,001-$7,500,000= Three 1st round picks, Five 2nd round picks, Seven 3rd round picks, $15million
$7,500,001-Above= Five 1st round picks, Seven 2nd round picks, Ten 3rd round picks, $25million
All draft picks in a teams compensation must be within the 3 closest draft years. If a team signs a player with out the correct compensation they will be fined their closest 1st round pick. These player also can NOT receive any bonuses, of any kind.

I propose that we add a specification to the offer sheet and compensation rule. It would be as follows:
If a player under the age of 26 accepts an offer sheet, the player will become suspended (or hold out) until the GM of that team specifically states if they choose to match or accept compensation.
If the GM with the offer sheet on the table chooses not to reply to the offer sheet by the trade deadline, the following off season the player signs the contract with no compensation being awarded.
If the GM is fired as a result of a failed activity check, the offer sheet is void.
This would help to avoid any situations between active GMs, inactive GMs and offer sheets. If the GM doesn't respond within a reasonable period of time, it can be seen as an activity check. If the GM is active and chooses not to address the issue, he loses the services of a good young player, that player hits free agency the next season and signs the offer sheet with no compensation.
The rule change would cover most possible situations:
If the GM responds right away, sweet.
If the GM doesn't respond and fails an activity check, roster opens up and we can find an active GM to replace them.
If the GM doesn't respond out of spite. They run the risk of not receiving compensation and losing the player.
