Yes. It also rolls over. The CAP Penalty that you have... let’s say for 2019, and this CAP penalty is $10M, this $10M will come out of your 2020 season CAP. This is very important especially if you have some key players to resign in this year and your overall salary cap will now be affected by this. Also, it can work against you trying to make trades or pick up guys from offseason free agency.    Yes your cap does go up little by little each year. But normally so does your contracts for players. Meaning, say if you have Julio Jones - his year one could be $14M - year 2 $15M - year 3 Can be $16M and year 4 Can be $18M ... only for an example. This could be the case with each big player you have signed to your team. I hope this helps.

iThe answer to that question is both yes and no. Allow me to explain.. yes - in a way if you have a rookie that is decently placed in ratings and have decent or very good attributes already then things can be predetermined a little.    No - I say this because if how well you prefer with them will also determine what will be unlocked after the “HIDDEN” status is complete. Example, if you have a “HIDDEN” OLB rookie and he has performed all year long like that similar to a Khalil Mack, then is “Superstar Abilities” will be determined based on THAT performance. Likewise with a DB or QB and etc...    I have 2 leagues this year and working on opening up a 3rd. One thing I have noticed about this year’s Madden is it as if EA Sports allow YOU to determine what type of archetypes and abilities your rookies can have based on how YOU have played with them and how successful they were. Last year’s Madden if a rookie case into the league with SUPERSTAR status there were not “abilities” with that status. This year it is. Madden 20 seems to allow you to determine a rookies abilities while in a HIDDEN status

☝🏽The comment above is mostly the answer to that question. How well the player performs and even specifically so with his SUCCESS to those plays (high receiving yards, sacks, interceptions, swatted passes, tackles for losses, etc). Depending on the player and what position he plays, these results will not only determine his type of development but his SUPERSTAR ABILITIES also if he achieves this leaving of status/progression.    So if you have a OLB with this hidden strait but performs well and when he completes the unlock requirements, if he got a ton of sacks he May get abilities associated with that specific performance. Same for a DB if he is shutting down WRs.

As to the cap space. The cap space is important for a variety of reasons. Trades (will not be allowed to get a certain player if you don’t have the available funds to bring him over), Free Agency (which is mostly important in the off season) - I say this because it’s pretty common for USERS to not sign BIG DEAL players because they simply looking to go a different route or want to develop younger promising players. So you can at times look at free agency after year 1 for a viable option for players. But having money is KEY. You have to bid for these players in the offseason whereas in year 1 going into the regular season you DONT HAVE TO BID. So if you don’t have enough cap space, someone can simply out bid you for the player you want.    Now cutting players. Go to “My Team” in your Franchise. Then select SALARIES - - - now scroll as far right as you can go. Look at the two things SAVINGS and PENALTY. This can help with dropping players. If the PENALTY is much greater than the savings you may want to avoid cutting that player. If there is no penalty or the savings are MUCH BETTER you can make a better decision on cutting that player.

There’s just so much to explain on that topic. To help with some of the main points. When trying to resign players who want a negotiation, be sure to look at what is considered to be a “fair deal”. This can be viewed PRIOR to selecting “START NEGOTIATIONS”. Note what is being asked for the YEARS - for example if it says $6M over 3 years and a signing bonus of $3M - - chances are they WONT accept less. This doesn’t mean they will accept this EXAXT offer, but simply stating what’s a “fair deal”. USE THE “FAIR OFFER” as a BASELINE. The better the player, the more challenging it game be. Meaning if a player has a 90+ overall rating... expect to REALLY PAY SOME $$$$$$$$ .    Last point for this. If you fail on the first negotiation deal, NOTE WHAT HE SAYS ON HIS RESPONSE. They will give you a hint as to what you have offered that they do not like. So if he says “the money is great but I don’t like the short term contract.” This typically means he wants to be with your team for MORE YEARS.
