Re: Report: Rookie Wage Scale Agreed To

According to sources, the terms agreed to on the rookie wage system are, in part, as follows:

• Five-year contracts, with a team option for the fifth year.

• If the team option is exercised, in the fifth year the top 10 picks would receive a salary equal to the average of the top 10 player salaries at their respective positions. That money would be guaranteed if the option is exercised after the third year of the contract.

• If the team option is exercised, in the fifth year picks 11-32 would receive a salary equal to the average of the Nos. 3-25 salaries at their respective positions. That money would be guaranteed if the option is exercised after the third year of the contract.

^ So this doesnt really seem like a scale to me, mroe like a franchise type tag for rookies in year 5? Is all other guaranteed money now gone? Is there a actual scale that says how much each rookie is going to get based off where they were drafted, before they were drafted?

I really hope they have an agreement in principle today, I think it'd be huge.

This could become problematic- a team could have so much in dead cap that it couldn't spend 90% in cash without going over the cap

Yeah, I don't know how that would work out. We need details.

Looks like there will be no workouts before May 1. Less money for the players but more free time

Good for the players. All the offseason work had gotten a little out of control.

Re: Report: Rookie Wage Scale Agreed To

Whatever happened to the 18 game talk, is that shelved indefinitely?

Does this mean that there will no longer be voluntary OTAs? If so I am glad, b/c I am sick of those stories in the offseason.
