    The NFL needs a minor league. Case in point is situations like this. A league solely built for development of players and expansion of the NFL. Not only would this be a place for international players to develop and hone their skills, but for players that played college ball and just aren't quite their yet to go. It also expands the NFL.
    Instead of having 90 ppl sign up for training camp in the fall, maybe those that don't make the 52 man roster they get sent to the minor league to build and grow. IT also gives those in free agency something to fall on if they don't get signed right away.
    The only down-side, if you really wanna call it that. Is that it'd probably be a big hit on the NFL wallet for the first 2-3 seasons, and the NFLPA would be in an uproar bc players would probably be paid a sixth of the starting rookie salary, possibly even less.
    ME personally, I'd play in the minors for 100k. A lot of other people would too.

    • @calebchristensen900
      @calebchristensen900 3 роки тому

      @Rapid Revolt I wouldn't be against that, only for the sole reason that the XFL would have a steady stream of players every year. However a minor league in the Spring wouldn't work long term. Especially if players are called up mid season.

    • @johnwonder8720
      @johnwonder8720 3 роки тому

      I would love to see that. They could play in smaller cities in the soccer size stadiums . Might give second chances to guys who picked the wrong program out of high school and international players etc. But I think you keep it in the spring so as not to interfere with college ball.

    • @calebchristensen900
      @calebchristensen900 3 роки тому

      @@johnwonder8720I keep saying this and 90% of the answers I get are either in the veins of, " the NFL doesn't need a minor league" or "the quality of play will be lower and less entertaining". If both are the case they why are people wanting a spring league to watch? and Why does high school football draw such crowds? Sam thing with smaller universities and colleges? If it was built people will come, and so will the players, and income.
