Well...luck staying at Stanford may be because he was hoping to play for Harbaugh or something...and he doesn't know who the new coach is now...and Jerry Jones or any owner stating opinion about a lockout aint worth much at this point...in fact it may just be a threat to gain leverage for the owners....there will be a ton of threats/opinions from owners/players going forward, most of which will mean very little.

Although, I see your point about Luck's 50M.
If there is a lockout, does that affect sign-on bonuses from the draft?
If so, it may make sense not to risk that if you are still a junior in college.

Good question, I would think if the guy does'nt play due to a Lockout he would still get the bonus but maybe not... Greed is a B****

.......no he didn't.People one of the only things that the NFLPU and owners agree on right now is a "Rookie Salery Cap"...the days of a draft pick getting "50" million and never having played in the NFL are over.

Yeah but that's only if a new CBA deal gets done. No deal this year and it won't matter if he got drafted or not because a lockout would happen. What if the deciding point was a rookie salary cap and they decided to table it until later because a new CBA was more important? He could still get 50 mil, although it's doubtful. The entire point is moot because he's not declaring this year anyways.

The owners already said they could do it if they wanted to last year, and they chose not too for the sake of a bargaining chip in negotiations, I assume they won't start one this year for the same reason.
