Just so I'm clear, NFLPA agreed to lower salaries for rookies, essentially forcing out older more expensive players, for retirement benefits?.....
No the NFLPA agreed to lower the salaries of 1st rounders. The rookie scale as it applies to 2nd - 7th round picks and undrafted free agents remained largely the same.
In both the old and new CBA, the draft is still the place to find cheap talent.
Combined that with the owners agreeing to raise the salary floor, and eventually more money will flow to veterans.
The NFLPA got fricked in this new CBA but this area really wasnt an example of that.
The % of the revenue split between owners and players & Goodell keeping God like power are better examples.
