Ignore budgets on or off?

Trying to decide if I should turn this off. I'm about to start my franchise that I hope to carry over and play for years (we'll see)

I like the idea of having to find good team friendly contracts and factor in my budget, but I do not want to have tons of good players going unsigned cus teams don't have money.

Does turning off budget simply prevent teams from not being able to make realistic moves or does it introduce chaos and 400m contracts into franchise?

I have done both, starting a franchise with budget off I just think of it as baseball before revenue sharing and luxury taxes ect. Turning budget off makes trading A LOT easier, teams can absorb any contract but I find players get signed to longer deals and than you have teams full of guys in the minors making $20+ million and I did the math once for the Yankees and Dodgers and both had player salaries north of $500 million... WHATEVER!

I would think if you choose to use a roster with legends included you would want budgets off.

In 16 you had to turn off the budgets because by year 4 you would see Major stars sitting in FA and nobody able to sign them (User or CPU). I tested 17 thru 5 seasons and this release the CPU does a good job of moving players to adjust for budgets and in the 5th year the highest rated player I saw was an 803 OVR player but they were like 35 or 36 years old.

So if you wanna leave budgets on this year it works properly.
