This potential lock out/work stoppage is not new news. It’s been talked about by the likes of John Clayton on ESPN for some time. Player representatives of the players’ union have been telling it’s members to put away as much money as they can. Personally, I’m not quite sure what the owners might want except for slotted salaries in the draft. They have salary caps, nonguaranteed contracts, and can pursue signing bonuses of cut players. The players need to try and not give up any more. Should make for a potentially long standoff.
