Redskins Mock Draft

He’s playing football, it’s simple economics. In baseball you have to toil away in the minors before you get called up and if you’re any good you’ll eventually get a good contract. In football as a first round pick he’s getting paid right away.

Look at what Payne got last year at 13, $14.4M guaranteed.

Counterpoint: You can make more money in baseball lifetime not to mention you don't have to sacrifice your body either. Not as easy a choice as it seems.

Sure you get more money upfront in the NFL but even if he does play in the NFL I'm not sure I'd see him fully committed to it long term. He literally looks clueless in this interview about what his short-term draft plan is. Why is that? 2 weeks before the combine and you're not even sure if you are going or if you will do the pro day?
