Of course, I think they should get paid what they're worth and all. I don't think it's the responsibility of the NFL to make up for the blatant exploitation the players go through in NCAA. But from a perspective of whether or not I think it's "right" for a rookie to get a big chunk of change, I am fine with it.

Law students work pretty damn hard too. That doesn't mean that when they get out of law school, they get to make twice as much as a law firm partner. The fact that Matt Stafford is the second-highest paid QB in the NFL is beyond comprehension.
