First Season Salary Cap Question (1 Viewer)

My home league moved to a Salary Cap league this season. We just completed our initial auction. The league has a history of almost ignoring rookies, so I was able to grab more of them than I expected.
League Details: 10 team PPR Team Budget $300
If I choose, I can give the following contracts:
(3X) 2 Yr Contracts
(2X) 3 Yr Contracts
(1X) 4 Yr Contract

I can sign these players for the price shown plus %10 inflation for the upcoming seasons under contract:
MHJ - $22
Malik Nebers - $20
Rome Odunze - $2
Jonathan Brooks - $3
Trey Benson - $2
George Pickens - $5

Who would you sign and for how long?
Thanks in advance for your input.
 
Who are your best players? (Not the rookies, this isn’t a dynasty it’s a redraft keeper.)
 
I have Mahomes ($7) and Achane ($7) under contract. Long story..
In addition to the guys above, I have these players and values.
Barkley $52
D Kincaid $22
J Warren $22
JSN $7
Tank Dell $25
 
All players can be extended ONCE in the final year of their contract. Extensions can be up to 3 years, thus you could have a player under contract for a max seven seasons.
 
I would “sign” Harrison and…. Whoever you like for 3yrs then you technically get them for 6 years. Can almost guarantee Harrison is gonna get the extension and be worth of the extra 10% yearly bump so if you want to just lock just him up for 7 I wouldn’t be mad at ya.

(I don’t see Kincaid being worth the $40 range it will cost at the end. If you think Nabers will be worth that it’s your call.)

This is interesting and I'd like to offer my opinion but I have some questions:
  1. If you sign MJH for 4 years his cap hit is 22, 24.2, 26.42, 28.642?
    1. If so I think I do this no question
  2. Is there a roster limit?
    1. If my math is right your standing roster is only at $142. You could sign Harrison at 4 yrs and everyone else at 2 and still have plenty leftover for inflation.
