I liked the idea. Again not sure of all the ramifications though. I can remember the NFL prior to the CAP and I like it better then now only cause players actually had "Loyalty" to a team. Since the CAP it's been all about money. Players come and go. Fans purchase $75 to $100 jerseys and the player is gone in 3-6 yrs. Fans can't pick a player and stand behind him cause who knows maybe next yr he's on the rival team.

I find it funny there will be no CAP but the owners agreed to raise the CAP some 20 mill. LOL. If the owners can find a way to tweek the CAP for the future as some have suggested here then perhaps player loyalty will come back, but if it can't then I stand behind the no cap cause football was a lot better when there seemed to be loyalty and life long career players, ie: Green.
