League proposes immediate changes to rookie pay


Kevin Greene

Recommended Posts

Liz Mullen of SportsBusiness Journal reports that the league has proposed the implementation of a rookie wage scale for the April 2010 draft. She also reports that the NFLPA has responded with a proposal that would change the structure of the rookie deals beginning in 2010, too.

The league's proposal, per Mullen, would pay players a fixed amount based on draft slot, with a "significant" portion of the savings being distributed to retired players. The NFLPA responded Tuesday with a proposed three-year limit on rookie contracts, along with a two-year extension to the current labor deal and a commitment by the owners to match the payment to the retired players arising from the contribution flowing from the savings in rookie pay.

This would make our #1 we shipped to the 49ers even more valuable if that pick can be signed at the newer discount rate.

Either way, how smart are the Patriots to trade for the Raiders 2011 #1 which will almost certainly be at a cheaper price. No Jamarcus Russell type contracts for the Pats.

That was the NFLPA, they aren't the ones that cut the current CBA up. They want it to be extended, the owners don't (not enough money for them...which is the real hangup between the two, how to divvy up the money between teams/players).

Very true, rookie pay scales were an issue that both sides thought could be agreed on. It is the other issues on the table that they are so far apart on.

It'd be great if they could get a new CBA in place. Rookie wages are one of the biggest obstacles.

No they aren't. Owners don't really care about how you slice up the pie they are interested in how much they have to pay overall which they think is too much. The total pie is the only issue. They floated the rookie salary as part of the negotiations wanting to have their cake and eat it too. The players union said fine as long as we get the same slice of pie (extending the CBA) and saying that if the money saved goes to the retirees and not the veterans, then give the same out of your pocket.

It will go nowhere and the owners will reject the players proposal. This is the opening salvo not anything close to an agreement.
