Extension Calculator
Calculate the future cost of contract extensions with 10% annual escalation.
The Full Story
The 10% annual salary escalation is the silent killer of dynasty rosters. A $2M contract looks brilliant until you realize it becomes $2.2M next year, $2.42M the year after, and $2.66M the year after that. The Extension Calculator did this math for you across multiple extension scenarios, projecting costs for 2, 3, and 4-year extensions with the escalation baked in.
We say "did" because this page has already been retired. Things move fast around here. The extension calculator is now built directly into the Roster page, where it automatically surfaces the top five extension candidates and top three franchise tag candidates for every team, live, with no extra clicks required. Sit back down on your rocking chair — by the time you stood up to use the standalone calculator, it had already been absorbed into something better.
The original concept remains intact: know what an extension will cost before you offer it, not after. The difference between a 3-year and 4-year deal might look small in year one, but the escalation compounds. The calculator just lives on the Roster page now, where it belongs.
