I would assume that to participate in minicamps they have to sign some form of paperwork due to liability purposes... The NFL likely foots the bill for medical care if Joe Blow has his leg ripped off during a drill. Sounds like an agreement to exchange services... I will practice/play/tryout for your team, you will pay my medical bills if im injured.... sounds kind of like a form of a contract.
Also, by definition, you have to be a rookie in the NFL to participate (or up to five (5) veteran players) in the "Post-Draft Rookie Minicamp." These aren't just open tryouts, they are only available for players from the most recent "College Draft." This is all spelled out in the CBA.

something that has never been close to allowed, is somehow now an acceptable amateur activity.
You must have been asleep the past 5 years. . .
There is no more amateur in college football. . .
It is a professional sports enterprise. Players are being paid to play. It lost it's amateur status long before this situation came up.
Call College Football What it really is. . . a farm system for the NFL. MLB has pros who sign contracts and play in the minors. That seems to be pretty much where things are headed in football.
If people want to get steamed about it, blame who's at fault - the NCAA. Those brainless underachievers have been laughingly trying to play catch up to this for years, and still can't.
Loved the rant by TBob, BTW.
