		<description>I actually don&#039;t mind the NFL system, it is in between the MLB system and the NBA system. What point is there to really have an agent in the NBA as a rookie? 

The issue is that most teams and agents don&#039;t even start the negotiations for the first round until about now, which puts them under the gun to get them signed before training camp.</description>

		<description>I agree that the NFL should adopt the NBA method for rookie contracts... Russell wants a reported 30 million, next year&#039;s no.#1 will ask for 33.5 million, etc. The problem is it has to be something collectively bargin.</description>
