This deal really appeals to the lower paid mass of players and has a great chance of passing. However, I think they will stumble on a few things... First being salary for 17th game. I believe this will ultimately be pro-rated based on current contracts per game with a slight adjustment for one less pre-season game. Also, the 10 year period of the agreement may be a sticking point.

We'll see how this plays out but it isn't helpful lots of players and media members are calling it a turd of a deal.
