I just went through an entire petition to our county salary ordinance due to studying over 20 other offices in the same field in other county governments and their pay compared to ours. I was losing people left and right due to they could jump ship and do the same thing for 5% clear to 20% higher rates in some cases.That all said, I get it and truthfully is one reason I think they should just be done with rookie deal's structured as they are....have them be one or two year contracts with some type of structure where a team that drafts the player can sign the player to a contract and in the the third and fourth year (typical rookie structure now) only half or up to a certain amount actually hits the team for cap purposes. Not a perfect idea however, as the richer teams could do far more and you'd have to limit contract structure in a way not to have many teams say sign a WR to a $40M/year contract for say four years...but the team gives the player $60M a year in first two years only costing the team $30M against the cap....so this would need fleshed out and thought out but rookie deals truthfully need rethought and possibly done away with entirely or in a way like expressed to eliminate or lesson the amount of second contract hold out situations we see.</blockquote>
