We don't know what will happen w/the CBA, uncapped year, etc. Regardless, I think the nfl salary cap & draft structure gives teams an incentive to play well so that they DON'T get the #1 pick. That pick costs a lot of $ & can screw a team if the player doesn't pan out. It's much better to be in the latter half of the top 10 where there are stars for the taking & they cost less. Plus they have less pressure on them.
