plus another reason why rookie contracts r the way they r in the nba (only 1st round picks contracts r guaranteed) is too try and dissuade highschoolers and early college dropouts from declaring for the draft. it still doesn't work too well though,lol. Luckily the NFL doesn't have this problem at this time. Plus almost every contract in the NFL is over-inflated so why would rookie contracts be any different. and another way I look at it is that rookies in a way deserve the contracts because they're finally getting paid for a job they've been doing for as much as 7-8 years. Since signing bonus's r the only guaranteed money football players see, I don't have a problem with some of the sb's some rookies get but the rest of their contracts should be saturated with incentives to make it so they have to live up to expectations in order to achieve the big $$.
