I know, it's ridiculous. I would love to see a rookie pay scale for the first two years in the league. I can't imagine what kind of incentive a rookie has to really excel in the league after he's just signed a $57 million dollar contract with almost half of it guaranteed. I also wonder what kind of atmosphere that creates in the locker room with some of the older vets. I'm sure they get the business, but it can't make them too pleased.Originally Posted by gbpackfan
It's going to get to the point when the salary cap gets tight again for many teams where they won't even be able to afford a top 5 pick.
