- I mean, great for Stanford fans and all (I'm glad Leinart stayed his senior year, as a fan), but that's just a head scratching move. - musubi Jan 6, 11:38
potential uncertainty about the CBA issue -- nm - y kant pixie read Jan 6, 11:35 19
- There's no way the rookies don't get shafted in the new CBA. -- nm - Reagen Jan 6, 11:38 3
  - i.e. market corrected -- nm - David Jan 6, 11:39 2
    - You mean market regulated. - musubi Jan 6, 11:40
    - oh, I'm not saying they're not overpaid now. -- nm - Reagen Jan 6, 11:40

- Even more reason to leave now, before a rookie sal cap is instituted. (nm) - musubi Jan 6, 11:37
- There's ZERO way you end up getting a better deal. Worse case, it changes, it's going to change for 2011 or 2012 so it's moot. - Will Hunting Jan 6, 11:37 12
  - what QB would be taken ahead of him even if he comes out next year? -- nm - y kant pixie read Jan 6, 11:49 1
    - You don't know. Maybe Matt Barklet finally learns to stop forcing passes. Maybe Ryan Mallet learns to make better reads. - musubi Jan 6, 11:51
  - If it changes, it will change for this draft. -- nm - David Jan 6, 11:38 8
    - Then he's in the same boat in 2011 or 2012. So all he's risking is not being #1. - Will Hunting Jan 6, 11:39 7
      - What he's doing is improving his odds of being a fully developed player when he enters the league rather than risk sitting on his hands for 8 months. -- nm - David Jan 6, 11:40 6

        Or the next hot prospect getting hyped past him. - musubi Jan 6, 11:44
        
        He is but based on what happened with Bradford, the injury thing isn't a dealbreaker. - David Jan 6, 11:44 2
        
        I don't see how you see the labor situation changing anything in *favor* of staying in school. - musubi Jan 6, 11:46 1
        
        If he doesn't practice, he'll be terrible in the NFL the first year. - David Jan 6, 11:51
        
        he's not playing before September 1st anyhow in any league. - Will Hunting Jan 6, 11:42
  - exactly, rookies get served with every new deal. So the sooner the better business wise -- nm - budice Jan 6, 11:38
