[QUOTE="TJV, post: 549233, member: 4300"] Since RBs are a small percentage of the NFLPA I don’t see that happening. And other positions may have similar claims although they aren’t as visible as RBs. Something that may be – and IMO should be - modified is the Permance-Based Pay benefit program. $3.46M is allocated to each NFL team and it is used to compensate players whose playing time was higher than their salaries would have indicated. Bears OT Jordan Mills topped the list at an additional $318K. Here’s a link to a pdf of all the payouts for 2013 (not actually paid until 2016) The Packers are listed on pages 23-24.

For example, why was Aaron Rodgers and Derek Sherrod (for two entirely different reasons) allocated anything?
