My general idea has a tiered salary cap to separate the league levels.
A buy in of $9.99 gets you 100 million Sandbux and a team name. Make more Sandbux available for more money.
Use the Sandbux to retain and sign veterans in a bidding type system.
You want Megatron and he's a free agent? Either cut players until you can afford to bid the moon for him, or recharge your bux for $4.99 and get an extra 20 million to spend, as long as it doesn't go above your league's cap limit.
There is a market out there that will throw $50-100 down per year to be in a 250 million salary cap league with 12 probowl rosters.
It's going to take some more thinking, but that's the basic idea.

I think a tremendous amount of people will get frustrated If they are at a competitive disadvantage because they can't financially keep up with some idle wall street banker. I know of games structured this way and they use free to get in then $$$$ to be competitive as a route to making money. Personally, I would prefer an annual one-time fee.
