I guess considering we have elimanted the 5000 cb cap on the DS there really is no risk now, but I believe there should be some "penalty" for cutting a rookie.

In the NFL a busted 1st round pick can set a franchise back a year or so and they still have to pay the bum. Looking back on Brian's proposal I'd be willing to work with it if the majority of the league approves.

I'd still like to see some sort of higher penalty if a rookie pick is cut. But a couple of quetsions.

If this rookie system pops up what will we do with the DS? Would we reinstate the cap, maybe to an even lower figure than the 5000. I feel that the DS cap should be re-implemeneted if this goes through. I'd also like to see the rookies salaries raise each year even if they're on DS.

Another thing, is what happens if a rookie regresses? Will they maintain the previous year pricewith a 10% increase (my suggestion) or drop to their placement?
