    how many teams will be willing to offer a multi-year deal next summer? my guess is that all 30 will be VERY stingy when talking with FA's.

    sure, the big names will get the contract they want. what about the role players?

    i can imagine that next summer's player movement will be at an all time low, and this winter a lot of second and third tier FA's will ask for 1 year extensions.

    what's your take?

    I see a bunch of salary dumps and waivers because of the 2010 free agents like

    http://www.realgm.com/src_freeagents/2010/ <- with those names it would be super tempting to wait a year more to sign some of those big names!

    There will be a very smart team or two that makes a killing next offseason.

    this list is wrong. it's the 2011 free agent pool. they mislabeled it.
