it's just tougher because baseball careers are so much longer on average than football careers and football generates so much more revenue...
Arbitration seems like the best option...
If a rookie plays X amount of snaps...or a 2nd year guy...etc. etc. etc.
As soon as you hit that magic snap number you should be arbitration eligible and your salary for the next season should be determined by an arbitrator...
for 5 years a rookie should be restricted to the drafting team...
and the tags stay...
Gotta keep control of your superstars even in small markets or football will just turn into the NBA or the MLB...and no one wants that.
