League-wide player market, contract length strategy, and coach contract-outcome charts using the reported amounts preserved in the SRL archive. Player-market charts use the latest recorded contract entry for each player through the selected season.
Latest recorded ledger entry per player, through 2026. Total reported contract amount.
The team displayed in detailed tables is the team attached to that latest entered record, not necessarily a player’s present real-world roster.
Average annualized reported commitment among the five largest annualized records at each position.
The five-player sample becomes smaller for positions with fewer than five latest recorded contract entries.
Latest recorded contract entry for each player through 2026.
All Recorded Deals: Every latest-recorded deal is included, including exact one-year / $500K minimum contracts.
Bar length = player count. Right column = total reported commitment in that stated-term group.
Commitment-weighted stated years by position in the all recorded deals view.
The weighted measure lets a multi-year major commitment matter more than a low-dollar one-year depth contract.
Largest latest-ledger commitments with a stated term of four years or more.
Compare the five largest annualized reported commitments at one position.

Top five by the selected outcome measure. The complete list is available below.
Recorded contract dollars per regular-season win. Every coach with at least one regular-season win. Lower figures mean fewer recorded contract dollars for each win. Recorded contract dollars are the auction, extension, tag, and option amounts captured here—not a reconstructed annual cap ledger. Inherited obligations, dead money, and trade allocations are unavailable.
