But, you either take risks on a four year shitty contract or take risks for one year and gamble on yourself you will significantly improve your stock.
There are worse things than receiving a 6 figure salary, if he sits out a year he misses that salary for the POSSIBILITY of making a bit more? The only way he makes significantly more is by being a 1st or 2nd round pick.
quote:a 100% bigger risk, it is better to play, if he gets hurt during the year there is a possibility he is a bouncer at Reggies than working in the NFL. If he is drafted and gets hurt a team still pays his salary for that season. Also you are predicting he still gets drafted near the top of the rounds, which probably doesn't happen for a guy who hasn't played in a year and sat out.
it seems to me that the least riskiest path to a big pay day is sitting out one year rather than playing four.

I'm not talking bout not being drafted, I am talking about passing on being drafted any later than a 3rd (see previous post)
