I would also like to roll with a rookie, the cost (cap and draft capital) is too much for lamar.

I think someone mentioned insurance for players. I think something like that needs implemented. I agree with you on players being screwed over, but full guaranteed contracts like that can also screw a team in such a violent game where injuries are commonplace. If a player is injured then he still gets paid with insurance, but it comes from a different pot that doesnt cap restrict the team. There would need to be all sorts of details/provisions/etc worked out for something like though.
