Franchise Mode - edited unsigned prospects become free agents early

How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? In Franchise Mode, specifically the Contracts screen during the re-signing phase and the Free Agents screen during free agency.
What happens when the bug occurs? Unsigned prospects become Unrestricted Free Agents if edited before the mode starts. Any prospect you so much as view (but press save and exit) is affected. On the contract screen, these unsigned and edited prospects should show one or two years of unsigned eligibility before hitting UFA if not signed. Instead, they show unsigned eligibility for all 10 years that are visible. Because AI controlled teams will not necessarily sign these prospects before they need to, they enter July 1st unsigned and automatically become UFAs. This is also the case for created players who are unsigned but in the CHL or European leagues.
What do you expect to see? Players should retain their unsigned eligibility for two seasons post-draft before needing to be signed, whether they've been edited or not.
