Ongoing CBA discussions

I find the notion that only the owners are taking financial risk laughable. The mere fact that players get on the field means they take both financial and physical risks. Plus with the way the NFL collective bargaining is structured the owners probably don't want to lessen the financial risk players take by guaranteeing their entire salary and lessen the restriction on their movements.

The only issue the owners should be concerned about and want to see changed is the rookie contract structure...everything else is perfectly reasonable the way it is.
