The Players have legit gripes but no leverage.

They are ****ed.

The faster a deal is inked the less they'll get ****ed.

Their best bet is to ink a short 3-5 year deal where they get about 25% of what they want, give up the inevitable ground in the short term (while they look for better representation,) and add some type of poison pill in the long term if a CBA isn't extended...

Denver rookie QB John Elway, on Jack Lambert, after Lambert and the Steelers knocked Elway out of his first game as a pro (1983).
