Not really. NIL is closer to a free market than the NFL is.

In fact, part of the reason NIL was so necessary is because of how NFL monopolizes pro football and was using CFB as a free minor league.

If you can't regulate greed the system won't work long-term. NIL has created all the dynamics we see even with conference realignment. Watching a QB in Georgia demand 4 million dollars, or he's turning pro, is getting so common we have already become desensitized to it. The Pac-12 suddenly blew up because they believed they couldn't compete without top TV money to play this new world game.

NIL isn't free agency, it's a petulant food fight.

NIL is closer to LIV and the Saudi takeover of golf than anything else. A few extremely rich individuals paying well over market value for social and personal goals, not economic return.
