Present indication are that the players want more money and the owners are willing to lock them out. Now if the owners want to keep their hands on the dough, it's reasonable to assume they are going to bargain for a tough cap.In another train of thought, that 3rd round pick the Vikings gave up could also be huge. I know this falls under the category of sketchy "what ifs" but think about this list of players who were taken in the 3rd round or later;  Joe Montana, Tom Brady, Johnny Unitas, Mike Webster, Roger Staubach, Bart Starr, John Stallworth, Terrell Davis, Nick Buoniconti and Shannon Sharpe.  I surmise the lower number of the round, the more probability of getting an all-star player. Now there are 7 rounds in the draft. Presumably the top 3 rounds are going to be your top half of the picks. Therefore, giving up a 3rd *could* be huge.</blockquote>
