Plus if you look a the history of the NFL, the owners have been making out like bandits while the players were under paid. Russ Grimm made $60,000 base salary in the 83 Sb year. He was a 2nd or 3rd round pick, so he shouldn't not have been considered bottom of the barrel and making such a little amount.
This deal is really about the owners wanting to pay themselves a few million a year off the top. Despite the fact that their teams value doubles and triples over time. Greedy.
