You could change the RFA system, I just think there should be something in place to encourage players to resign with the team that drafted them. You don't want players leaving the teams that drafted them after only 3 years, it would make draft picks much less valuable. At least give teams the right to match any offer for these players.
The NBA uses Larry Bird rights to do this, but that wouldn't work with a hard cap.
