USA Today/Saints Wire: NFL owners approve new CBA, but the players might not be in lockstep

The proposed CBA does not favor the top 5% of the individuals economically, but for players drafted in rounds two and later it would mean immediate increases in pay and added incentives according to Mike Garafolo on NFL Network. The players coming out against the proposal are all in that upper 5% of the player economic structure ... unsurprisingly. According to Garafolo the union has been negotiating on behalf of that "rank and file" which make up that other 95%.

Well yeah... people who make a lot of money don’t want to make less for the good of others.
