I watched more of the AAF than I thought I would and enjoyed it. I will keep watching.

This. NFL already tried their version of a farm system in NFL Europe. Right now, the only affiliation with AAL is NFL Network showing a few games.

But do not think for a minute that any AAL player extended an offer to attend an NFL training camp, that said player would respectfully decline because they are in the AAL.

I liked what I saw last weekend. But this league is going to have a substantial player turnover. Because some will go to NFL camps, some might make NFL rosters, some might get injured in camp.

Then we get the XFL (redux) starting next year. Talent pool going to be thin.
